Oh The Finish Line!

I did it! I completed my very first 5K race yesterday at the Bonnie J. Addario Lung Cancer Foundation: Your Next Step is the Cure, Orange County, CA 5K!! I woke up Saturday morning with an “oh oh” feeling. I had a terrible tummy ache and my body just felt weird. Achey. Our original plan was… Continue reading Oh The Finish Line!

Santa Hustle Run

This post has nothing to do with Santa yet everything to do with love, giving, and believing. A couple weeks ago my husband went for a morning walk with Biggie our bulldog and our baby Celeste.

Who Knew Running Could Feel So Great?

I haven’t been posting much about the journey of running my first 5k and part of that has to do with the fact that I haven’t been running as consistently or often as I should be. I figure it’s okay though, the race is until May 1st. But then I get this funny feeling that the date might just creep… Continue reading Who Knew Running Could Feel So Great?
