So, Tyler and I met up with Kellie Barney this morning who is in town for Christmas, to go for a run. Kellie is from the same town that I grew up in and has ran since she could walk, I think. She has been a huge example to me in the running department and so I really looked forward to running with her today. She currently lives in Indiana with her husband and kids while her hubby finishes school specializing as a "root canal" dentist. I think it is called endodontics, but I have no idea on the spelling or anything so I think "root canal" dentist explains it, right? Anyway, we met up with her, started running and got about 2 miles into our run when we ran into Michelle, Hal, Steven and Travis. So Michelle and Travis came along with us for the rest of the route. The weather was perfect today for running but I struggle with the slushy gunk that in on the road (I am sure you are all impressed with my terminology here). I guess it's not "that" bad, just keeps you light on your feet :). It was a great morning and so fun to see Kellie again. I hope I get to run with her again while she is here during Christmas.

Welcome to the BLOG!!! Oh, wait, you are not new, what am I thinking!!!

You had a great week of working out and running little missy! I am so impressed that you love strength training. I do it twice a week, too, but I hate it. And I really hate that I can feel it into the next day!!!

You should add the push up challenge to your training---I bet you will LOVE it!! And it would be fun to do with friends (see who gets to 100 first!!)

See you soon and have a wonderful Christmas!!!

Hey Kellie, thanks for the nice post! It was fun to run with you guys too. I love running in Utah because of the great surroundings and great conversation. Anyway give me a call and we can run again. We finally got Jason here and he would love to run as well.

Talk to you soon,

Kellie
