Happy birthday to me!

Michael (my running mentor from the beginning of this journey) sent me "The Zen of Running" book.

I bought new shoes that I'm pretty sure are the best Brooks Ghosts I have ever owned.

And thanks Runkeeper for making today even better with this email!

2018 Cyclones Frozen 5K

This race is always a great way to start the year.  I wasn't as excited as usual but once I was there I was glad I had signed up (at a ridiculously inexpensive cost last fall of $20/person).  We ran into some of Andy's friends before the race.

Sonia was even excited though she did not get to ride on the course in the stroller because it was just too cold.  She headed to the finish line with Grandpa to get hot chocolate.

I ran into my friend Angela on the course and ran with her until we got to the 5K/10K split.

And we love the shirt this year!
