Butte to Butte


So, I have to brag a little now. Usually I don't, but this deserves it! My biggest accomplishment this summer was running in the Butte to Butte race. It is a 10K and the first time I have ever done that. Brynne got me pumped to start running in races, and it is really fun! The race was on July 4th, and was the day after my sister-in-law died, so I was emotionally and physically exhausted and had decided not to run. My husband encouraged me, and my sister stuck with me through the race, (which was awesome of her because she could have blown right by me from the start) and I finished! It was such a sense of accomplishment. I can't wait to do it next year, and I also want to start training for a triathlon sprint, or maybe a triathlon! Yeah right, i'll start with the sprint anyway.

I know I already told you during and after we finished that I was so proud of you but really Kretha, I am so proud of your desire to get active and take part in such a fun sport. Races are the best and I'm glad to know I'll always have a buddy to run them with even if it's not my husband. Aaron and Adam can be our cheerleaders at the finish lines! You're so tough for doing the Butte to Butte. You are capable of more than you know so keep working hard and you'll see some great results. You already look amazing, you beautiful lady! Keep it up!!! :)
