July 24th

For July 24th I did the annual Deseret News 10k. And I will say if it had not been for my brother and sister in-law I would not have run it. I have been in a running rut and haven't really run much. So if they had not asked me to sign us all up, I would have sat home and regretted not running. I have now run it for 4 years straight and hope (fingers crossed) to keep the tradition going. This race is the reason Brighton and I went on a 2nd date. But that is a story for another time.

However, next year I hope to train for it. I ran this one cold turkey which was fine but I am surprised how sore my legs can get after only three miles running down hill. And so next year, I will train and hopefully score a new PR. That is easy to say right now right?

I didn't get any pictures because I left my camera at my moms and I didn't think to use my cell phone until after I had gotten home. But I do know five people who can vouch for me. But maybe it is a good thing I did not get any pictures because I had only gotten 5 hours of sleep the night before. Due to fireworks in Bountiful.

Later that night we went over to my mom's for dinner and homemade ice cream (my FAVORITE) and then went to the Real Soccer game. My brother and sister in-law were able to get us tickets for the game and it was a blast! I don't know how much of the game I watched but I sure did enjoy playing with my nieces and nephews.
