Run for Justin




I ran in my first race since having Isaiah today! I participated in the Run for Justin. I did it two years ago while training for the San Fransisco Marathon and thought it was really neat. It's in honor of Justin Nealon who was an avid runner and an athlete for Team in Training, also. He was in a pedestrian accident in 2002 and now his family continues his passion and mission of running and helping out the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. I was nervous about running it this year because I hadn't even run two miles yet!! But I made it all 3.2 miles in 34 minutes. Not very fast, but I ran the whole way! Andy and Isaiah came with and watched me cross the finish line. It was a beautiful day for a run...minus the rain in the beginning! We had a fun morning in Omaha and even ate brunch with Cat and Jack Teetor and Adam Brehm. I'm so glad to be back running again!
