My last long run.

This Saturday I have my last long run before my marathon. I am going to run 20 miles, I hope I survive. My marathon is on September 18, one month away. I am starting to get really nervous. I can't believe how much I have already accomplished. I was never really a runner prior to the beginning of my training in May. I am so happy with my progress and I hope I can continue to achieve my running goals, starting with my 20 mile run this Saturday.

What's to come!!

This is where we will be next week, New York City. We are also traveling to Philadelphia, New Jersey, Boston, all around Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, and Maine. We are really excited. I will post pictures as soon as we come home.

This picture was taken when we were in New York City last October.

Marathon Training Week 12

I am on my 12th week of training for my marathon in September. This past weekend I ran 12 miles, it was really hard. I even had to stop and walk for ten minutes because my leg cramped up. That was the first time I have ever had to stop while running but I figure that it is okay because I don't want to injure myself. My longer runs are getting harder and harder and I need to start taking supplements while I run so I can keep my energy up. Training for a marathon is really time consuming and I hope I can keep up.

Marathon Training Week 2

I am on my second week of training for my marathon. It is scary to think that I am actually going to run a marathon in September. I have always wanted to do it but right now it is rough. This week both of my runs have been really hard and I don't know why. It might be the fact that I have to wake up really early in the morning and I am not a morning person or it could be the hill that I have to run up a few times. I ran three miles on Tuesday and four miles today. On Saturday I am going to run five miles, I don't think I have ever run five miles before.

I know I can do it because even though I feel like stopping I continue to push through. I don't know why my mind is trying to tell me that I can't do it. I will continue on and push through because I KNOW I CAN DO IT.

Easter 2010

Here are some pictures from Easter, I am really going to try to start blogging again. It was a cold Easter weekend so we enjoyed watching Conference inside. On Easter we went to Jason's grandma's house, Brigham's great grandma.

Brigham loved finding eggs, he knew there was candy in them so each time he picked one up he had to open it to see what was inside.

A yummy treat!!!

Jason discovered some new m&m's the other day. They are coconut and so good. I don't even like m&m's but they are so good. Everyone needs to try them. They taste like an Almond Joy but in a miniature size. MMMmmmmmm.
