Gage and Ryker's Birthday and Conference in between.

I always have a tendency to dread September because it's so overwhelming with birthdays and stuff. This year I got an opportunity to squeeze in a NAADAC Conference in between. In was in Denver so I took my mom and Ridlee with me and stayed with family. Next years is in Houston and I hope to be able to go. This year got me wanting to start doing my own training's eventually. So that is now a goal of mine.

Ryker's birthday was on the 19th and he turned 11. Here he is enjoying some of his presents.


My conference was literally right between their birthdays. I got back on the day of Gage's 17th birthday.

Here is some of the art in the hotel at the Conference.

PR's and fun!

Had a recent 5k PR and while it wasn't an official PR for a half I ran my most difficult race so far and it was my second best time yet. 5k was the Run for Courage and I got a 26:18. It was a long course so I am sure I can get much better eventually. 



And my Winslow Half. I ended up with 4th in my division.
