Fabulous Fall Y'all!!

It was a Fabulous Fall Day in the Great State of Washington and ONE MONTH since husband left on deployment!! Whenever I'm on the PC, I see my family to my right; little reminders to smile!

After the double school drop offs, I had an EPIC fail of changing out the tire tubes on the single jogger, I don't know why I thought I could do it, I never have. And, now I'll be on the search for a bike store to do it, it's only been like almost 2 years since I used it. Hahahhahaaa

Sore and bloody fingers were DONE. So, I decided to head outdoors with baby girl and take our crazy dog for a walk to the lakes. Absolutely Perfect Weather!!

The rest of the afternoon was spent w/Social Chair duties, we have a fabulous fall festival in the making. My FIRST event as Social Chair. Aghhh!!! 



Can you tell we had a DRY SUMMER, the grass is dead and needs RAIN!!

Run, Baby Girl, Run!

 Fabulous 1 Mile Walk!!

Run Faster, Mama!

Running in the Rain. I just had to get out there and I absolutely loved every single BURNING second on that pavement/track!! I had a few cancellations for bootcamp, typical on a rainy day, before I even headed out, so I decided just to ENJOY the run and swing by the track in case anyone else showed up. The thing about it is, I LOVE RAIN!! I enjoy the outdoors and this was my first attempt at my current challenge with my ever so changing schedule. Baby Girls were excited to get out in the rain too, and enjoyed the view along the Base Roadways. Whewww....going uphill with a double jogger is TOUGH, really TOUGH!! I was winded after 10 minutes but I kept going. Made it, kept going, went around towards the gym and ran a few laps around the track to complete 2.02 Miles in 28:55. Not too bad with rainfall. We hung out, re-fueled & stretched out before walking back home. I already have a few routes in mind for my next run and another mother runner who wants to join in. Excited to be giving my outdoor runs back in action. WhOoHoOOooo!!!

Mama on the Run

I was on the search for the 2013 event date for the 10k I ran earlier this year, in January. When I came across an article the local paper had. I was surprised to find "ME" in the photo. It was my first "race" since moving to Washington, my First 10k, Resolution Run for Heroes. 
Here's the article. Resolution Run
It's obvious that I'm looking forward to making the Race for a 2nd year!!!


Can you see me?
