My First 10K

So, my friend Shandria has been trying to get me to run since I was pregnant with Leyna. Leyna turned 2 in June. Well, this past summer I joined a "class" through Fleet Feet and we did a run/walk training group to get ready for a 10K. By the end of the class we were running for 4 minutes and walking for 1 minute for about an hour. It was fun to do this method because I enjoy running and can go for a long time. So, I finally completed my first 10K on October 5th at the Harvest Fair 30th annual run. It was a lot of fun. Brett, Kelly, Shandria and myself all did it "together". I was so excited to finish and I hope to do another one sometime sooner than later. The kids had fun cheering us on and it ended up being a family event with Grandpa and Grandma there as well.


Katrina was so excited to hold up signs for me that said "Go Mommy Go"



They had some "post-race festivities" before we went to the fair

You're my hero Kim :) I'm so impressed!
Elise wants to be a cat for Halloween so I'll have to refer to your kids pictures for the proper cat face painting technique.
