me & my baby

Well, this weekend me & my baby ran the Encinitas 1k together. I can't even tell you how excited Taylor {& mommy} was to do this little run... Originally I was going to have her do the 5k with me, but decided to start her off small. Test the waters... See if she even liked to run with out stopping. Oh my gosh Taylor ran the entire 1k & faster than me. I was cracking up the entire run. I think we have a little runner over here! Ya  Can't wait til next year... Watch out Encinitas 5k here comes Taylor Michelle {maybe Ryan too}!

don't forget

The Encinitas 5k is this Saturday, May 14th... Hope to see you all there! I can't even tell you how much fun this race is. Babies, kids, moms, dads & even grandparents are out running & walking it. The family spirit is amazing! Go check it out for yourself... Don't forget!

run forest run!

OK so we have a little time {May 14th}... But, I wanted to announce it now!

The Encinitas 5K 2011 is coming!

My daughter, Taylor, really would like to run this year with me. I told her all about it last year & how much fun mommy had {remember here}. I couldn't believe how family oriented & involved it was. It wasn't all about the fast pace of a race it was about laughing, chatting & getting out with friends & family. Loved it! So Taylor & I are going to start training now. I'm sure you're all asking why start now... Hello, she's 4 1/2... Taylor needs time to run, learn & build up her mileage. lol Of course I'm not going to have her run the entire race. She can do what she wants. But, it's nice to talk about fitness with her... Get her heart racing & a little sweat going. Something all children should be doing... Being active! Come join me & my family & friends get active & run the Encinitas 5K with us... I'll keep you posted as the event gets closer. Plus, I love supporting my town! Go Encinitas Go!

who's #er 1...

Well, I did it... Ran the Encinitas 5k this Saturday... I had a blast!!!! My running partner was Grace {grace happens} & my cousin, Polly, & her little ones, India & Gwenny. Shhhh we all talked the entire run {little walk}. I'm a little upset that I didn't take my daughter, Taylor, who by the way was still asleep when I left the house {lucky}. Taylor would have had the best time. So many families were out & about. It felt good to support Encinitas & to be healthy! I'm going to sign up for next year & the year after.... & the year after.... Get my point! Good times! Sorry, I didn't take more pictures... I didn't bring my camera. Grace took these pictures from her iphone. Thanks Grace! Don't I look half a sleep in these pictures. ha ha ha My eyes kept watering. I think that was because of the cold weather. Morning mist...

My #er 1 running partner... Grace!

The fam dango.... Polly & miss India.

The Glaser clan. Too cute!

Then after the race we hit the park with the kids... Ryan decided to create a new way to ride the dolphin.

It started a moonlight beach trend... Look at Harper! LOL

I hope you enjoyed these pictures. I really can't tell you how much fun we had. The spirit, excitement & family feeling was amazing. I know how weird to say family, but their were tons of moms & dads walking & running with their kids. Way to go! I think we all need to be more healthy & involved in exercise with the entire family. That's my new goal with my children! Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa Hope to see everyone next year at the race! For all the friends I saw Saturday, You're AWESOME!

Keep on running....

run don't walk
