Running!

The boys finished their marathon March challenge at Running Club, where we challenged them to run marathon distance (26.2 miles) during the month of March.  Both my boys succeeded in the challenge are are showing off their 26.2 tokens!

April 2015

In January I paid my membership dues on our local running club after a two year long absence.  I have been enjoying interval workouts at one of the local high schools.  One of the other members sometimes takes pictures and caught me in action.

Yesterday, 6-4-15, I ran the fasted 10k I have ever done!  I have yet to run in a race, so maybe I could do faster?! I was excited. Below are my splits per km, but it comes out to an average of 8:33/mile. ;-)

Today 6-5-12, we had an "almost 5k" run! It was 2.83 miles and both boys successfully completed it!

They each earned a "running stars" token!!

Cutie Colin!!!

He learned to swing on his own...I am not sure exactly when...These pictures are from March 4.

Getting ready on a Sunday morning! He doesn't look bad, right....? 

Hahahahaha!

He said he made a flower!

Daddy didn't feel good one afternoon and came home early from work.  I went to pick up Gavin and this is what I found when I came home!!!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!  March 17

He made this on Hundred Day on February 13.  Had to take a picture of the silly hat! (March 17)

The boys love the game Plants vs. Zombies.  A friend found fruit snacks and bought us some.  Here he set them up like you would in the game and wanted me to take a picture! March 17. 

I found him like this one morning when I came down for my early run! Sad that he wasn't sleeping well in his bed, but he looks SO cute! March 20.

Colin wanted to take a picture of this Cars pretzel.  March 25.

He was looking through his valentines and gave me this cute one! March 26. 

I had a lunch date with Colin on grandparent's day.  Yum! March 26.

Our five year old has been working hard since September to make 100 miles that he finished today!!! Way to go, Colin!!! Congratulations!!!!

I love the determination on his face! It's hard to see because of the lighting, but cute!

Coming in at 100 miles!!!

He did it!!! Been working on this goal for more than five months! 

Philip was able to go in late to work so he could be there and we took a family pictures!

Colin got to pick his 100 mile foot from several tie dyed colors, he wanted the one closest to blue.
