I suppose that 4 1/2 months is long enough, eh?


Lets go through the year...


January- I went out to Phoenix, AZ to run a marathon. I had a really good time with my dad, my aunt and uncle and cousin. It was a lot of fun. I learned a lot about myself throughout that race. I found out how important it was to really listen to what was important in life. The Lord. How important my prayer life is and what to do to keep growing in the Lord, it was an awesome experience for me. I am so thankful that my dad was able to share it with me! : )

February - I was recovering through a little knee injury, therefore I took some time off running for about a week. It was hard, but it also taught me other things to do. I was able to study more... which is always fun.

March - I went up to Tulsa to compete in a 5k... I got third place. It was fun, mom got to go with me and I was able to visit a good friend (Anna Erb) and see my Cousin Matt and Danielle and their sweet baby Ethan! Spring break was also that week which was filled with work and training.

April - I went out to Boston to run that Marathon on the 20th! It was well... I dont even know of words to describe how awesome it was. I will post pics. I ran it in 3:31. I had my fastest marathon out there and the cool thing was - I wasnt even sore after. I had so much fun talking and enjoying the company of the different runners from all over the country. I actually met a lady at the beginning of the race and we ran the entire marathon together. She was from Alabama and now we email. I was able to talk about the Lord with her and enjoy our conversation. Now, THIS IS WHY I LOVE RUNNING. : )

May - The pics below are actually from the same day. ha. Dad took me to a 5k in Guthrie, OKlahoma. I got first place and the guy in the yellow was 1st place male. It was fun. I rushed home had about an hour to get ready and lefto for Katherine high school graduation. This picture is of the Schiete girls and our cousin Jessica (She lives in Omaha... I love her!). We had a good time with family & friends. I thank the Lord for my family and especially Katherine and her big day!
