COMING OUT OF HIBERNATION

The snow has finally melted and new buds of Spring are popping up everywhere.  It's time to start running again.  

Mark and I were asked to be Ma & Pa for trek.  Today was the Trek Qaulifying walk/run - 4 miles in one hour.  This was a huge reality check!  I finished in 40 minutes pushing the jogger and felt my lungs burning the entire time.  (I got the look from some of the teenagers like "I hope she isn't my Ma and make me run with a handcart like she is with that stroller).  I'm definitly starting from scratch again.  But it felt SO GOOD to be OUTSIDE AGAIN!

Went on a running date with Mark.  Gorgeous weather!  Winded, sore and happy.

PACK RUNNING with SISTERS

I can't think of a better activity to do with my sisters.  We met in Utah for Cheryl's 40th surprise b-day party.   Cheryl & Suz are in their tappering mode for Ogden.  Becca and I are just starting up again.  A 7 mile trail run was perfect for all.  I didn't notice the altitude.  We took it easy, enjoying the beautiful scenery rivers, mountains, trees, and each other's company.  

(I need to work on my sleeping...we stayed up until 3am talking and stretching).  

Also bought two new pairs of shoes.  I'm getting geared up for summer training.

This was an easy coarse on dirt roads, yet my lungs were burning from the cold misty wind and rain.  I definitely felt the change in time-zone and climate.  I wore a hat and ski gloves!  Isn't this May?  At least Kate was warm in the Chariot cocoon.  David road his bike next to me. We stopped half way to meet up with Mark and Gunner at the tennis courts to hits some balls for our FHE activity.
