I started running in May of 2006 while losing 85 lbs after my youngest was born.  I have 6 fantastic kids, 3 girls and 3 boys and a wonderful husband.  My oldest is in college and my baby is in pre-school. (Six kids in 5 schools ;)

Great run today!  The temp was PERFECT, the breeze was most excellent and I am so glad!  Short and sweet- I have got to get to work.  I love being able to say, "yeah, I ran (whatever it was) today."  (especially the really long runs)  I guess I have been hanging out with little kids so much that I really need the kudos from grown-ups :)

Way to go again Marion! I know exactly what you mean about the adult kudos! That is one reason the blog is so fun! Have fun at work! The people you serve are lucky to have you!

Good Job Marion! Sounds like you had a great run! I am anxious to see what you do tomorrow. I am doing my long run with my running group tomorrow because they are all doing Heart of Holladay.

Hey Leslie! Have a great long run! I am going to be short and sweet again tomorrow! It sounds like all of the cool people will be at Heart of Holladay this weeked :) But in Provo we are getting pancakes! How cool is that?

No - all the cool people are not running Heart of Holladay. One of the coolest ones is stuck throwing a bridal shower for her niece.
