Seth and I graduated from BYU April 2007. Our beautiful son Simeon was born that May. I started running again in June with the encouragement of Seth and Lybi. Seth, Lybi, Laura, and their mom are the ones who really keep me running :P

Yea! Seth and I added another 5 minutes to our run. Today we walked for 5 minutes as a warm up. Then we ran for 25 minutes! We got out even further than the time I ran with Lybi. I was so excited. We are getting better and better and running is feeling better too.

But there was a downside! I got attacked by the mosquitoes! And for some reason they bit me only on the fatty part of my calves! I have like 20 mosquito bites on each calf and no where else! It looks like I have some kind of nasty rash. I hate mosquitoes!

Wooo-hooo! You are doing so well, Kristina. BTW having a baby is the equivavlent of takingout a sleep mortage! JK So sorry about the mosquitos! They are a pain. Skin So Soft by Avon is the best thing I've found for repelling them. My mom might have some if you ask her.

Oh yeah, and don't worry. If I move out there and we become running buddies, I can guarantee you I won't be doing tempo runs every day! We'll be going at a pace that is comfortable for BOTH of us.
