He is also very active, mostly weight training and he has run 2 half marathons as well. He is very fast without training too hard. 1:28 Half Marathon!!! I am working on being able to keep up with him. Someday when are kids are older we look forward to training together.

Today was a good mental run for me. I really needed to work through some thoughts and running has a way of making things more clear. Now I am ready to conquer the world. I hope you all have a great day and remember your blessings.

My blessing for the day... My husband is a great listener and I am grateful he gets me even when I don't get me.

I found a great street with lots of hills. I know it is crazy but I have missed the Herriman hills. I had a great run today and also found a great park with a trail. I think the trail was about 1.25 miles around. I ran that twice. The park was also well populated so I felt safe running on my own.

Blessing for the day...

Home Videos. Last night I watched a video of my 2 year old when he was 1 and learning to walk. It helped me to remember what a blessing he is while I am dealing with the tantrums and public embarrasment.

Blessing for the day... The Temple

I am going to the Newport Temple tonight. I am so looking forward to it. I love the Spirit I feel there. Life seems so clear when I am there.

I ran along the beach today. It was a beautiful morning probably the best since I have been here. The temperature was perfect!!!!

AP 8:47

Today's Blessing... The Ocean was so beautiful this morning. I love experiencing the beauty nature has to offer. It reminds me of who is over all things. Jesus Christ created this earth and this morning I was in awe of it.

    Ran 15 along the beach. Started in Huntington and ran down through Newport. I looooove Newport!!!! They have some of the coolest houses along the beach and it is so entertaining to people watch there.

    I ran solo today which was okay. It would have been more fun with friends though. I will have to figure out something for my 20 next week. Because 20 alone sounds like tourcher. Anyone want to come for a visit next Saturday?

AP 9:07

    Blessing today... Good friends. I have a handful of friends that are your truest kind of friend. They pick me up when I am down and they never judge me for my less than perfect life. Life is truly sweeter with great friends.
