"You will have significant experiences. I hope that you will write them down and keep a record of them, that you will read them from time to time and refresh your memory of those meaningful and significant things. Some may be funny. Some may be significant only to you. Some of them may be sacred and quietly beautiful. Some may build one upon another until they represent a lifetime of special experiences. "

The Women's Fitness Celebration 5K

Here's the story of our first Women's fitness race:
We registered in the noncompetitive "Mom's & kids" group, so we where able to take our time & able to bring an extra stroller to give the girls a break when they started to get whinny (which was hardly ever, luckily). The girls did great despite the pouring cold rain. Supposedly it was in the 60's but we felt frozen when we stopped to "party." The weather caught everyone off guard, in fact the weatherman said it was the first rain the area has had since the beginning of July! Go figure we would get a major downpour the one day that we had things planned! Oh well, we still had a good time and we'll forever have a great story to tell! : )
