1. Hi Everyone! Sorry I have been absent from posting this week but work kind of just got super busy all of sudden and well, my blogging kind of got pushed to the last thing on my To Do list. Tuesday I ran 400m intervals outdoors and tried to hit a 1:35-1:37 pace but the weather was a tad bit chilly and so I had some trouble. Wednesday morning I went for an adventure run and just ran around on some streets that I had never run on before!
2. Yesterday my best friend, Kaylie got engaged!! I was so excited when I found out and could not be more happy for them!! He proposed at a nearby park in a field of wildflowers after they had been riding a tandem bike! They are so cute!
3. I mentioned a while back that I had actually signed up for a race and that race happens to be this weekend! Sunday I am running the Better Life 5k to benefit The Diabetes and Nutrition Therapy Center for a local hospital. It is being held at a local golf course with the race right on the course. This is an important race to me because my Dad has had type 1 diabetes since he was 5 years old. For almost 60 years my dad has lived with having to check his blood sugar and take insulin. The technology has come a long way since he was first diagnosed and really has helped to make his life easier!
I can already tell I am getting nervous about the race because last night I had a scary dream about being at a race and not having my bib and chip. It has been a long time since I have run a race. I am just hoping that the weather turns from rain to sun for Sunday!
Happy "almost" weekend!!

Good luck at your race, and way to go to your dad. I'm involved in research on type-1 diabetes, and I know that living with T1D and staying healthy for that long is really really really tough. Kudos to him.
