Run, run, Rudolph!


I ran the 12K's of Christmas race on Saturday and had such a great time! It was HUGE. So many people, most dressed up as Santa or Christmas trees or elves. There were carolers at every mile and the entire course smelled like kettle corn. :) While I felt like I felt like I really pushed myself, I still finished with a slower time than I'd hoped for {1:27:59}. I think after the half marathon {London's Run in January}, I'm going to start working on speed. I've run enough races now that I can try and beat my own time in each one.

In other news,Nicole featured our video on Making It Lovely! I'm a bit star struck:


Also, check out this awesome Christmas video made by the Slade Family {they're friends of J's brother}. I'm glad they made it, because I'd never have been able to! I hate water on my face. :)

Impressive run for sure!! I've only done a few 5ks and don't feel ready to bump it up. I can't believe you've had 4 babies and do all those races - you're totally inspiring.

I'm a new follower, by the way - first found you through your family's Christmas video(s), which I adore :)

Amazing job with the race. I've only done one 8k and one half marathon. I am thinking 5 and 10ks may be more up my alley...

I'm a new reader here too. Lovely blog- just lovely :)

Have a great day.

If I were a runner, dressing up like Rudolph would definitely motivate me. Then, I would try find Dasher somewhere near the finish line.=)

I hate putting my face under water too. I have asthma and breathing above water is an issue, under water is scary. I loved this video but I love yours more.
