Salt Lake 5K

Yesterday I saw one of the most amazing things - My husband ran a 5K. This is amazing because he is just not a runner (as I have trained for half marathons the last few years - he was just never interested)...however, he has participated in numerous bike events. This year he set a goal to do more and complete a 5k and possibly a mini triathlon. It was so fun to be downtown and see all of the excitement as people got ready to race - and when I say people, there were seriously people of all ages. I think I saw kids as young as 6 or 7 and well into their 70's.

As a family we hope to join him in a family 5k this summer. It should be a fete to get our children prepared for this, but a worthy goal! Brett is such a great example of health and exercise for our children (and me too). I am so proud of his continuous accomplishments in life, his newfound determination for health, and love for his family! He is such a great husband and father - we got lucky!
