Rex Lee Run10 K, Baby!






Thank you Summer for being such a great running partner...always consistent and ready to literally go the extra mile!

We ran 6.2 miles in 52:40 min for an average of 8:30 min per mile!

Next step: Provo City Half Marathon on May 1st!

I have had these shoes for 5 years now...and they allowed me to train and run the Logan Marathon in 2007 and endured the abuse of winter, the road and the mud, the rain and the snow. I think I should consider giving them a well earned retirement!


We are now in our training for the half-marathon and ran 8 miles today...every time I go running I feel incredibly blessed to enjoy this scenery- it is a runner's paradise:

Wow, you look AMAZING in these photos, Anabelle! You should be a model for running gear! We did great:)

Wow, you guys are FAST! I'm running a 5k in April, and let's just say that I may be many things, but fast is not one of them! Good luck on the half!

Way to go! Way to go! You are an inspiration!

That's fantastic, Anabelle! Not only did you do well in the 10K, but it looks like you had a fun time as well. Your shoes do deserve a good retirement. Does this mean you will get a new pair really soon? Hope so! You've earned it. :)

Anabelle, you are awesome! I am "running" a 16 minute mile right now. How lame is that? One day maybe I can shave off a few minutes. Sigh...

Hey, I think I remember those shoes! That's awesome. :0)

Good job running, that's really fantastic. Did you run much before we were roommates? I feel like that's when you first started picking it up. I remember we went for a run once together, and I remember wishing I could enjoy it like you. I think it would be awesome to be a runner - maybe in the next life when my knees will be perfect. :0)
