My first actual race was the Buffalo Run! It was the 40th anniversary for the run, that was exciting! The run was held at Pioneer's Park in Lincoln. Such a fun race, and the weather was so nice! A brisk 55 degrees and sunny. Best running weather ever.
Technically I PR'd. I've never ran 5 miles before, so that was cool. My finishing time was 48:52 with a pace of 9:47. I was ecstatic that my pace was under 10 minutes! I think the excitement of the race helped with that. Ha!
My next race is a 5k/10k on Saturday in Sidney, NE. It's a Halloween costume party. I'm planning on running the 10k in an Ariel inspired costume. I even have Sebastian to put on my shoulder while I run! Pictures to follow, assuming I don't die. ;) Can't wait!

Running! Oh How I Love You!!
I just love it. I'm ecstatic that I can run every day and not get injured. (Knock on wood!) I also have a nutrition plan, which has helped with my Crohn's exponentially! I'm just so happy with how everything is turning out. Things have been looking UP since I started, and they will continue to do so! YAY.
My fastest run so far was a 9:46 minute mile!! I am ecstatic about that. I've slowed down since then, but that's alright! Usually I am around a 10:00 or so. That is fast for me! I can't wait to see what is in store for my running (and life in general) within the next few months!
My brother is getting married in June, so we have been doing the party thing for that. So much fun! It also helps me keep my mind in the game when it comes to that. I know it's stressful on all the people involved, but I think it's going to go off without a hitch!

So proud of my Clematis. I haven't killed her yet!

New Beginnings
Let's talk about something cheerful, shall we? I am running again! RUNNING. (!!!!!) I can't even tell you how happy that makes me. I just can't. I started a week ago. I have run every day since. Today will be my 8th run this year! YAY. That is crazy to me. Well alrighty then!
These are simple, easy runs. Nothing crazy over here. I am just so excited I get to run! I haven't ran since January 2014!! (According to my phone app). That is insane to me. I missed it.
Here I am after yesterday's run. I was sooooo happy! It cooled down a lot after work, it made the run that much more enjoyable!
I think I wore Kye Dog out yesterday. It was too hot in the house for him to lay on his bed, but he still wanted a pillow. I love him!
