Half Marathon

Here are some more pictures of the half marathon I ran with my dad. It was a rainy day, but it felt great.

My June Excitement

Today Matt, Ruby, and I are headed up to Logan for the weekend. The Harmons Best Dam Bike Ride is tomorrow morning. My goal is to ride 100 miles. I think I can do it. I have been riding in the mornings with Janny, Matt's sister. It has been so much easier on my knees. We are staying at a hotel tonight with a swimming pool so Ruby will get to swim for her first time. I am excited. It will be a nice little vacation before our big one in Socorro in a week. Anyway wish me luck.

Two weeks ago my dad came up to run a half marathon with me. It was a lot of fun. We both finished. I ran a 1:58. I did not beat my record, but this is the first time I ran the whole time. Below is a picture of Ruby and I after the finish. She is enjoying the taste of my medal. (No, I did not win, but I am special because they gave me a participant medal. How sweet.) Hopefully I can get my mom to send me the picture of my dad and I and us finishing the race. I will post them later. As you can tell Ruby is still in her PJs. The race started at 5:30 in the morning. It was cold at the top of the canyon. It even rained on us a couple of times during the race.

Summer Hike #2

We love going on hikes and walks with Ruby. Below is a hike we took with Tom's family, Matt's brother. It was fun. We went up just before the sunset. There was a lake and little waterfall at the top.

Playing with EVERYTHING in the kitchen. In fact I have to watch her close because her favorite place is under the sink with all that fun stuff.

She really is walking more than this too. This was taken on May 29th. She is walking like a pro now.
