The First Half Of the year...

Its almost herreeee!!!


I'm a little bit excited.  Just a little.

So, let's plan on meeting at my place at noon on Friday the 8th to head out.  Nicole, Katy, you ladies live a bit out there, want us to pick you up???  Then return at some point Saturday after the race.  And maybe after shopping, which will be after I stuff myself with some food.

We can drive one of my cars so your husbands aren't stranded home with kids while we are gone...


Does that work for everyone?

I did it!

LADIES!


I did it :)

I signed up for my first marathon!

The Foot Traffic Flat, July 4th on Sauvie Island.  They have Strawberry Shortcake for you when you finish running.  And Hot Dogs.  And SUPER cute medals at the finish.

So who's in!?!?  They have a 5k, 10k, half and full, but they sell out so if you're in, they sign up and let us know!

I'm really excited and I want to throw up.  All at the same time :)


26.2 here I come!

Some funny for your day :)

February Race!

So here's the deal, with me anyway...

I haven't found a race in February that really just screams my name.  Have any of you ladies?

What I was thinking instead, we all do a long run together Friday afternoon/evening ish on the 22rd, and then shower (or not if you don't glitter when you run) and go out on the town for a ladies night to celebrate the fact that I am not 31 yet (for a few days anyway).  

We could bring our men too, a giant couples date night!

Ladies, ladies and men folk...

I'm still open to a February race with everyone if someone finds something good!

Thoughts anyone???

Also, I get that 31 is still young... ish... but in reality, it's halfway to 62.

Training Runs

Hey ladies!
Who is up for some training runs after MOMs?
The plan is to share a sitter (or 2) and meet at Melissa's (noon ish) and run till we can't anymore.....or till the sitter calls and says that B won't stop crying. Or that Liam drove a matchbox car into the wall :)
If you are planning on joining us this next Thursday, 1/17/2013, let Melissa or I  know so we can figure out sitters. We are doing 8 miles!! Sammamish is only 2 MONTHS away!!!!

Resolution Run Results!

We Did It!  Cold, but fast!

Lisa killed it in 48:09, Melissa was not far behind at 54:41, Anna did 57:33 and Nicole pulled it in with 59:50!  Not a bad way to kick start the running year!

All of us after the race

A 2nd place age group win for Lisa! 

Anna and Lisa at the start before Lisa took off :)

 Nicole coming in strong!

And the one husband who braved the 5k all by his lonesome (seriously, all the men folk dropped out!) Jason, was rewarded with 3 free beers!  And he pulled out his 5k in 31:26!

For February some runs have been tossed around... I'm thinking the Heartbreaker Half (they have medals), Saturday February 9th... they have a 5k, a 10k and a half for the fast runners in our group :)

Resolution Run Packet Pick Up

Hey Ladies!

I will be heading over this Saturday to packet pick up for the Resolution Run.  Let me know if you want me to pick up for you, and for some of your men folk.

Packet Pick Up is also happening Sunday (Race Day!) at 8AM (Race starts at 10AM for the 10k and 10:05AM for the 5k)

Also, anyone wanting to carpool? :)
