I did it! I really did it.

This morning I ran the Ogden Half Marathon! A friend of a friend of a friend had to drop out at the last minute, so I ran in her place. The last half mile about killed me, but it was the best feeling to finish it. I never thought I would do something like this, but I'm so glad I did.

Speaking of medals, this morning Brighton had his last soccer game of the season.  He scored 4 goals and kept about 8 of the other team's balls from going into their goal.  It has been so great to see his skills and enthusiasm for the game grow.

Thanks, Grandma, for watching the kids and taking Brighton to his game while I ran!

Holy cow, Lisa. That really is amazing. I can't believe you are turning into a runner. Yet another amazing Lisa accomplishment.
