Legacy Midnight 10K

I did this run last year as my very first 10K and loved it. I was surprised at how easy it was and that's when my desire to run more began. I ran this with Melissa & Amanda last time, but this year it was Shane and our friend Ray.  I invited all my sisters & their spouses to join us again, but we are all busy people so maybe next year because we are definitely doing it annually. It's just a fun run.





The Midnight Legacy 10K is held on the weekend of a full moon. It was definitely out lighting some of the trail for us.

Us post-race & still smiling!

Runners' post-race carb buffet. I thoroughly enjoyed a few of the PB sandwich bites. Love me some peanut butter!!

One of our friend's from CF22 was running her first half marathon and our other dear friend Jo (and her son) thought it would be so nice to surprise her at the finish line. So awesome!

Oh, would you look at that? I think that does show my name in 2nd place. Wow! That was a complete surprise! Granted it was only in my age group, but for not trying I'll take it!

Shane was happy to take his 7th place as well considering he didn't plan his pre-race meal very well. CF22's summer BBQ was just a few hours before and he probably ate a little more than he should have for needing to do a run a few hours later. Poor guy. He didn't puke, but he also didn't stop once. So proud!

 Oh yeah! I'm standing on that box and I don't care who knows it! I was pretty proud of myself!

And random self-pictures with my medal were taken all the way back to the car for proof. (There were five more like this.) Haha!

About Me

My photo
Shane and I met my senior year of high school in 1996 and were married in 2000. It's just crazy to think we've known each other for more than a decade and still learn new things about each other. We both graduated from the University of Utah. I have a degree in Finance and Shane has a degree in Biology. We are both enjoying jobs in our respective fields. Our favorite thing to do is travel. Before we started a family, we spent two weeks in Europe touring Italy, Germany, Switzerland, and France. We want to see the world and hopefully take our children along with us when they are older. Our children are our life. Alexander "Lex" is our little man at 7 years old. He loves to try lots of new things. He's currently enrolled in soccer, tumbling & boys' hip hop. Isabel (or Bel as Shane likes to call her) is 3 1/2 years old. She is also enrolled in tumbling & dance. All in all, life is wonderful and we couldn't be happier.
