Where to start?

I am SO behind on this thing, it isn't even funny! So, for this post, I will start with Oliver. He is now nine months old, but here he is at 6,7,8 and now 9 months...




I am so in love with this little cheese ball.




That was after daddy fed him dinner.
Then we move onto April's race. It was a 5k here in Bountiful. I ran this with Oliver. When we got to the race, I found that the stroller had a flat tire, with no way to pump it up, we ran the race (full of hills) with the flat. Yes, I am Woman.



Next I had my May race. Smithfield 5k.



This last weekend we had the reunion of the Cabbage Patch Kids. Oscar Thomas, Nora Kate and Oliver Champ. It is so fun for me to see these three together.








And finally, let me introduce you to my white trash baby....

I love my boys.

Lake to Lake Relay

So, I'm about a month behind on this race, but I did manage to get my March run in. We did the 50 mile Lake to Lake Relay in Sunny St. George. It. Was. Beautiful. Let me introduce you to my team. Hips, Lips and Asphalt.

Mary Ann, Tawna, Allison, Tara and yours truly.
Mary Ann started us off, running from Gunlock Resivor out of the canyon.

She was pleasantly surprised to see her family there to show some love and support.


Then came Tara, this was her second year and she was our fearless team captain.

Next was Allison. She did it last year with Tara, they both were so fun to run with.

Next up was Tawna. My partner in running. I'm SO glad I have her!

Last but not least was me. My first leg was only a little over three miles, it was pretty easy terrain and a nice (hot) run.

Then we did it all over again...
Mary Ann.

Tara.

Allison.

Tawna.

I really need to put in here, this leg was freakin hard and Tawna did SUCH a great job!
Now, my last leg. Oh Boy. Where to start? How about with this- this is how excited I was to run this leg.

Yeah, notsomuch.
My leg was just over seven miles, a few of which was on gravel, up the side of a mountain and, for more than half of, I could see the finish line. I just had to run completely around the lake to get to it.

Which I did.
Our team all done.

When all was said and done, this was as much of a jumping photo as I could muster up energy for.

Relays realy bring out the best in all of us.











I do love me a good relay race. I can definitely see me doing this one again.
