My Latest Feat!



I always figured that blogging was for people that had excited lives, and something to talk about. I don't think I accomplish all that much from day to day, unless I can count the limitless loads of laundry, dishes, messes, breaking up fights, hauling kids from place to place, piano lessons, etc, that I do everyday. But I do have one small accomplishment that I did recently that I'm pretty proud of.
Last weekend, my friend Nissa and I went down to St. George and ran a half marathon. Oh, yeah, baby...that's 13.1 miles! And we finished it too!!! I finished in 2 hours and 13 minutes, which, to you seasoned runners out there, might not seem that great a feat, but for me, it's AMAZING! (My goal time was 2 hrs, 20 min)
Hooray for me! I did it!!

Seriously. That rocks. Some day before I die, I think that sounds like something I might want to try. Maybe. Someday.

Wow, congratulations!! That's awesome Sherrie! I'm happy you have a blog. I use my blog for more journal/photo album (I'm definitely sure most people would not think my life is exciting). I am going to print it each year...my kind of scrapbooking. Oh, and can I just tell you...your kids are adorable!!

Wow, that IS quite the feat! My goal this year is to do a 5K--you are much more ambitious than I am! Congratulations!
