Iron Girl 10K

Expo day for the 10K.  Zeke got all worn out from looking at all the different trees


The starting line up
This is what Zeke did through the entire race

Just after crossing the start line
Beautiful Green Lake
Runners across the lake
Here I come!
Still coming!
Coming toward the finish line.


The finisher video. Do not be fooled by my speed... I sped up quite a bit the last 50 meters or so...

I actually finished!
I did it in 1:09!  My pace was 11:11 per mile... slow, but way faster than I expected!

Nate is trying to burp a tired Zeke at the park.
Feeding Zeke at a rest area on the way home.  Random... We saw Katie Rohwer (my cousins daughter) at this rest stop with some of her friends... small world.

I'm so glad I was able to do this race! I think I needed it.  Now I'm inspired to continue running through the fall and winter trying to get in good shape for more races.  Nathan and Zeke were great at cheering me on!  Thanks guys!

Just news

I lost my camera.  I'm super bummed...  I actually think it's probably lost in the car, but that is why there have been no updates lately.  No photo's to attach.  so sad. 

Things are moving right along with us.  I got my hair cut yesterday!  Yay!  Zeke has been getting more talkative and he's been eating me dry!  I can't believe how much this kid eats.  He must be growing.  Nate is working lots of overtime this week so not much has been done outside.  

I'm starting to train for a 10k that I intend on doing Sept. 7th.  We'll see if that actually ends up being a possibility.  If any of you girls out there want to join me, I need a training partner. It's the Iron Girl 10k (there is also a 5k).  It's mission is to encourage woman to live a healthy lifestyle and it's a girls only run so Nate can't do it.  I figured it would be fitting to do that as my first run after having Zeke.  

We are going camping this weekend at my Uncles Ranch!  I'm really excited.  I think Zeke will be the perfect camping baby.
