Goldenwest 5k & an EXTRA 7

This morning we got to participate in the Goldenwest CU 5k. This run benefits local schools and we were there to support my mom's school, TH Bell. It was a pretty good course with some fun hills.

I had my mom sign up Jeremy since he is "training" for the half marathon. I say training very lightly since he only runs maybe one time a week. I like to give him a hard time but I know it is hard to find the time to run because he is so busy with work and building a house. It is fun to do things like this with him so I was excited.

Todd and Tom took off at the starting line, me and Jeremy stuck together pushing the double jogger, and my mom and Ava hung with the back of the pack. My mom is still having knee problems so they walked most of the course.

It was a fun run. Jeremy and I took turns pushing the jogger until about the last half mile when I turned him loose. After finishing we cheered Ava and grandma on as they came in. Ady thought that was fun.

Cheering for Ava & Grandma
Ava had a hard time at the end but my mom said she did so good.

After we finished the 5k we gathered our gear and headed off again for more miles. We headed towards Weber State via Old Post Road. It got windy so the last few miles were tiring. Coming up Harrison was hard. Tom kept going up Harrison while Todd and I ran around McKay Dee. By the time we were in the last stretch I was mentally done. Todd caught up with Tom and we all headed home. Todd was bouncing off the street like a deer and commented on how it's funny how each week we see a different strong runner. Last week me and Tom ran really well and Todd was soooo done. This week Todd was running like it was nothing and I just couldn't force my feet forward. Hopefully we can ALL have a good run come marathon day.
