It's Contagious

As you all know Scott and I have been running in local 5k's together. Two weekends ago we did the Great harvest bread 5k. I had my PR by 3 seconds! Hey it was 3 seconds faster and a VERY hilly course, so I was pleased. I was really fast my first 2 miles and slowed up by my third. Right now this is my last race until the race in September! Here are some pictures from the race.

This guy gives a whole new meaning to running barefoot.
He passed me about mile 2 with his bare feet pounding on the ground.

Scott crossing the finish line. We really need to work on getting him faster.

I want a picture of me crossing the finish line.

Until then, I am happy to cheer him on as he crosses. Very sweaty after this race.

This reminds me of a quote I found, "No one has died from drowning in their own sweat."

This is the whole reason Scott ran the race. Great Harvest Bread Co. sponsored it,
so after the race they were passing out free samples of bread. This is so delicious and
This the pecan bread with cinnamon and brown sugar.

Ready for the contagious part?

Ashley agreed to run a 5k with me in September called the hit the brixx run September 17. Ashley has been working very hard in the gym to build up her running. Last she and I talked she is up to 1.5 miles running without stopping! I am so proud of her.

My mom and Chris are training for their first triathlon on September 18! I am so proud of them I cannot even tell you. Mom just bought her some new running shoes yesterday and already went running with Chris this morning.

I would like to think that my training and dedication has given them some inspiration! Well we can all dream can't we? I am hoping that one day maybe we can all complete an event together. Ashley, Mom, and Chris I am so proud of you guys for taking on the challenge of your race/event. I will be there to run with you and cheer you on! Good luck on training.
