Me: Hmm....I don't know, how many?

Mason: Ten!

Downtown Dash 2009 - Our First 5k!

Nick and I (along with our friend Shelly) ran our first 5k this past weekend! What a great accomplishment for me, someone who couldn't run a lick just nine short months ago. :) I owe it all to the Couch Potato-to-5k program - it works, it really does!

The race was amazing, so many people of all different ages, sizes, abilities - so inspiring!

Nick finished 88th in the race and I finished 388th. (Don't laugh!) :)

Here we are pre-race.
Nick about to cross the finish line.
Shelly and I running to the finish.
We did it!!!!
The three of us post-race.

5k's are addictive! I'm looking forward to our next race in July.

A Camping We Did Go...

We took advantage of a nice weekend in Oklahoma and drove down to Robbers Cave State Park for a fun tent camping expedition. Mase got his first sleeping bag, he's so proud!

Tent camping is likely more fun if you bring an air mattress. After sleeping on rocks all night long Nick and I feel as though we've been repeatedly run over by a truck. Other than that, a great time was had by all!

*note to self, buy a air mattress that will fit in tent*
