If anyone were to have asked me if the farthest I would ever run would occur when I was 30, I would have laughed at them.  But here I am running my first 10 mile race.  And it was actually FUN.  I'm tempted to sign up for a half-marathon...next year :-)

Here are two of my favorite supporters!  Aunt Kristin is due in August. 

I had just given Dane a kiss in this picture.  And he ran after me.  I didn't know that until Matt showed me this picture...it melts my heart.

Here are 
Britni and I at the finish line.  Britni is the reason I ran this race in the first place.  We couldn't have asked for better weather (75 degrees) or a better course (downtown Minneapolis right by the Mississippi river).  It was great!
