Thank you, Mom for always being there for me.

I have signed up for my first 1/2 marathon.
I probably should have tested the waters with a 5K, but I am a very spontaneous person. (spontaneous: doing things that have not been planned but that seem enjoyable and worth doing at a particular time -Merriam Webster-) "seem enjoyable and worth doing at a particular time" Yup. That particular time...I think just ended because it's not seeming too enjoyable now...but I've given my word and I've paid the toll fee. Wish me a lot of luck, for I may not make it to the finish line.

On the plus side: I've been doing most of my training on the shoreline and it is really beautiful.

Craters of the Moon National Monument, ID.

I believe that Utah is the epicenter of weekend getaways. It's literally a hop skip and a jump to the most amazing places.

A few weekends ago one of my very best friends, K and I went on the sweetest little girls trip to Jackson Hole, Wyomin'.

WE HAD THE BEST TIME.

The next few posts are going to be obnoxious about my recent really fast road trips that were totally awesome. Get ready.
