Off to a running start...

Happy 2010!! Has everyone kept to their New Years Resolutions so far?? I haven't decided what mine is yet, so since I never made one I can't be disappointed when it doesn't pull through, right?! :-)

Brian on the other hand set a goal this past September and accomplished it a week ago, when he ran a half marathon...that's 13.1 miles!!! CRAZY!! "They" say for your first time, and really any time, finishing under 2 hours and 30 minutes is good, he wanted to beat 2 hours 15 minutes...and finished in 2 hours 8 minutes!! I was able to go and watch him cross the finish line, I could not have been prouder!!
Here he comes...

and there he goes...Brian's friend, Jacob, they ran the entire way together
CONGRATS Jacob, Emery, Brian and Pat...all finished the PF Chang's 2010 half marathon! After a big run, who wouldn't want cupcakes?? I thought I was pretty creative..."Way To Go Brian" 12 letters...a dozen cupcakes, green for go, isn't that what all the hard work was for!!?? Okay, I admit it, I didn't run but I did enjoy a cupcake or two...one of my guilty pleasures! But this isn't about me... :-)
I would like to say Brian has inspired me to start running. I have good intentions, truly. I bought some REALLY cute purple running shorts...just haven't got to the actual running part yet.

I'll keep you posted!
