GOOD COOL DAY FOR A RUN!

It was a cool Saturday morning for our training run but

thankfully not as cold as it was last Saturday.

I was glad to see some of my team Half Nutz bundled

up and ready to go.

Pictured are Becky,Candy,Elizabeth, Stephanie, Don,

Deanna, Amanda (who just had a birthday) & our mascot Mia.

I got my new camera so I was excited to use it to take

pictures of my group. I have such a good group and

enjoy everytime we get together.

We headed out for our 4 mile 1/1 method which in actuality

according to my garmin we did 5 miles. Woo Hoo way to go

Half Nutz! We did it in an hour and a half which was awesome.

Here is my group keeping up a good pace and

still smiling. Pictured in the back row Kristin, Benita & ?

(I am sorry I forgot his name I promise I will get better

at remembering) joined in with our group.

Stephanie is doing a good job at keeping ahead of us.

We would let her know when my beeper went off by

yelling "beep beep".

Elizabeth & I kept together the whole way and

I learned of all the hardships she has had to

conquer in the past few years. I admire her

for overcoming everything she has had to

overcome and she is still so positive and

smiling. Elizabeth you rock!

When we finished up my heart did act up

a bit on me and it did put me down on

the couch most of the weekend but I

am hoping it was just a fluke and I can

make it through the half marathon

training with my group but even

if it comes to where I can't please

know I will still be there for you to help

all of you achieve your goals.

I did miss the ones that didn't get to come

and hopefully you will be there this coming

Saturday. I hear it is supposed to be really cold

so please bundle up before heading out the

door to run.

Monday nights we have a small group that meets

at 21st & Riverside @ 5:30 it was started by my husband

so we call it Bobby's bunch. I will be there and probably

just walk a couple of miles because I am still not 100%

better but you all are welcome to join us.

I will also be there Tuesday night for our run but

won't be able to make it this coming Thursday. They

are meeting at 4p.m. that night if anyone wants to go.

After our Saturday runs some of us always go to breakfast

to eat extra calories and refuel with good food.

WE ended up at Blue dome diner and it is very good

if any of you haven't tried there food.

Here is a pic of some of my friends who are also group

leaders that ate with us.

Jason who leads team "half squatch", Lisa & Ken

lead team "faster than Oprah".

Hope everyone has a safe and Merry Christmas

and I will see you out in the cold for another

great running adventure.
