2011 in Review

Ya know, I am pretty happy with 2011. I accomplished way more then I thought was possible. At this point I am thankful I quit working for Weight Watchers as I am sure I would have kept going as I was and not challenged myself to do bigger and better things.

Ran Cinco de Mayo with my daughter - my first 10K that I ran the whole thing.

Followed by a burrito and beer.....

I took a Learn to Run class and met others who wanted the same thing as me. We ran a 5K together.

Hiked Tam-a-Lau trail.

Ran the Widmer Brothers 10K with my son- no walking on this one either.

Hiked Smith Rock for the first time.

Even though it is right at my back door.

Ran The Todd Beamer 10K for 4th of July with my son. He helped me reach a goal of under 1 hour 10 minutes.

Hiked Lava Butte.

Had an adventure in the top of trees. This is when I realized I needed to work on my upper body strength.

I finished my first ever half marathon and ran the whole thing!! I'm not breaking any records with my time but I was thrilled!!

Climbed a really big rock- thankfully I was harnessed in!

I finished the year out by running the Jingle Bell Run 5K in Portland.

 Here are my two biggest supporters!!

I look forward to many adventures in 2012.
