5k and Bike Tour and Easter

Hope everyone's Easter was fantastic. I'm finally not finding that blasted plastic green Easter grass from the kids' baskets anymore! What sadist invented that stuff anyway? It drives me crazy! It's everywhere! Three guesses as to what my kids are really like between these two pictures!




Yesterday was my 2nd annual 5k at the Salt Lake City marathon. It's a fun run through downtown, with lots of people to cheer you on. I thought I beat last year's time by a full minute, but after looking up last year's stats, realized I was only 6 seconds faster. Dang! I'll blame it on the new route with the up-hill stint that gave me a side ache! Scott did the bike tour, but started at our house--in the dark, at 5:25 a.m.--then met up with them at the University start line. I'd rather run than bike 31 miles, for sure. Of course, he'd disagree! It makes me want to train for a 10k. I know, you hard core runners think that's easy, but considering I couldn't run a few house lengths two years ago, I'll shoot for that! This picture was taken at the finish line. It was fun to have him meet me there this year.
