Running…………..for fun?

Christine started running last year for exercise and has grown to really like it. This last weekend she ran in a 10K (6.2 miles). She has been training for over a month and did really well. She ran the 6.2 miles in just over 57 minutes. She is already looking for another race to enter in the fall when we get back home here in MO, she would like to enter a half marathon (13 miles).

Here she is on the first lap after 3.1 miles.

 

Here is the group of girls from the MTC whom she ran with. It was a lot of fun for all of them and for us husbands that watched and cheered. The lady in the back with the headband is Christine’s running partner, a staff lady whom Christine has built a good friendship with.

I (Matt) can’t see the fun in spending an hour pounding your body but I am also a little overweight and a lot out of shape.
