Back in March I signed up to run the Rex Lee Run at BYU, but was deathly sick the day of the race and my sweet husband made me stay home so I could recover and not drop over dead. That about drove me nuts to think I couldn't run and finish something I started! My determined little mind wasn't going to give up. So the last few months I've been trying to run longer and faster to build up my endurance. Well it all paid off on Saturday! It was such a great feeling! Especially with Stephen as my little cheering section. He caught a great picture of me crossing the finish line! (Notice the time on the clock!) Thanks sweetheart for supporting your crazy wife!

Oooh!! Good job! Nice picture! I'm signed up to run the 5k on the 4th of July. I am scared to death, but I am also excited! I am scared because I don't think I'll be ready or in shape well enough to do very good. I'm excited because I haven't been in any races since I was in track in high school, and that was 5 & 6 years ago! We should plan to run a 5k together sometime. It would be fun to run with someone I know!
Way to go Emily, I share the same goal as you. I am going to run the 5K Freedom Run in Provo on the 4th of July, and I also am trying to do it in under 30 minutes. Thanks for showing me that it can be done.
