Shannon did what?

I ran a 5k today! That most certainly was a first! A friend asked me on Sunday if I wanted to do it...and apparently I said yes! It was fun, though. I only walked for about 2 blocks...but only because the last few blocks were up hill! How rude! But I didn't get last place...that was my goal. :) There were so many people running (including a couple of students...how embarassing to see Miss Lacey all sweaty!), and it was on the parade route for Provo's 4th of July parade, so there were a lot of people cheering just for me! :) ha ha! If you need proof, here are my results.


And here are some pictures! Here we are (Jed, Rebecca, Kaylene, James, and I) getting ready for the race (no, of course this wasn't posed...haha!)
Post race...we're obviously exhausted! :) (Photo may be dramatized)

Whoo whoo! I'm raising the roof right now.
Amazing job! Maybe you should invite me on your next 5K because I obviously need a little push. Sorry about the other day when you called I was sick. :( I'll call you and tell you all about my fainting in the temple...

You are amazing. I'm pretty sure I would have died. Actually I'm certain I never would have agreed to do it in the first place!
