I have such a love/hate relationship with running! I love setting goals working towards them, help my heart stay healthy, I love inspiring my children to be healthy and active, it's great to see Jarred push himself, I love spending time with my running friends especially my race partner, Kathy. I hate dedicating time out of our busy schedule to fit in a training schedule, I dont care for burning legs, freezing my tushy off at 6am, having to run after a long day, getting sick right before race day BUT...when you take part in 22,000 runners in downtown Grand Rapids despite 40 degree weather, its so MOTIVATING! Proud of my friends Jenni, Leah and Shannan for completing the 25K. Thankful for my husband and Jarred for watching the boys so I can get my runs in. Grateful for my great friend Kathy, seriously would not have done half of my runs without her. Looking forward to adding a triathlon to our repertoire of events this summer along with a couple more 5K's and maybe, just perhaps a 10K within the next year!
