Getting Caught Up



It has been a while since I last posted. I vow to myself to update my blog everyday. Here is what has been going on since I last posted.
We finished the Cuyahoga Valley Hiking Challenge. We completed 10 hikes and earned a nice patch. We also finished The Summit County Metro Parks Fall Hiking Spree, completing 8 hikes.
On September 21st I participated in the Natatorium 5K Run, this is my 3rd run in as many months. It was so nice to have a friend participating with me. This was Jennifer's first 5K and she did great. We are already signed up to do the Jack O Latern 5K Jog in October.
I just finished reading a great book about an amazing man that can run, it is called "Ultra Marathon Man - Confessions of an all Night Runner" by Dean Karnazes. If you need motivation to run that extra mile, this is the book to read. This guy is amazing and very motivational. He was on Regis and Kelly a couple weeks ago trying to break the world record by running 48 hours straight.
