Shamrock Shuffle
Hey there. It's me again. I guess that I truly am the only one who doesn't have a life...and loves to blog while watching The Real Housewives of OC.
So on a much lighter note than my last blog, I, wait for it....completed a 5K on Saturday! I would love to brag myself up and tell you all that I ran it and felt great after doing it. However, I will, because I know none of you will judge me, instead tell the truth :) I WALKED a 5K and...realized that I am TERRIBLY OUT OF SHAPE!!!! When I told Wade that I had finished the race, he was so impressed. Then he asked, "So did you have to walk at all?" I, in turn, started laughing, and said, "Duh. I walked the entire thing and I'm still sweating!"
Now, not to scare you all away; I had a blast. After we were done walking. The Shamrock Shuffle, as it was called, ended at the local bar, Chuckles, and included a hot dog lunch and massive amounts of green beer and green jello shots (ironic huh?) I am not at all embarassed, although I'm sure that my mom will be, to admit to all of you that I was ready to go home and sleep by 4:30. I can, however, now tell Ashley with much certainty that I am in for the 5K in KC. Sign me up! Love you all and think about you all the time. I'm still walking around Fairbury, patiently waiting for my car. Thankfully my apartment is very centrally located. School, church, gas station, mexican/chinese restaraunt, downtown are all within five or six blocks of me. I'm telling myself that this whole walking thing is pretty great and that I should keep it up even after my car gets fixed. Anyone want to take bets on how long that will last? :) I'm sure that my mom would....or maybe that exercise bike that I bought and have used four times in as many months! Ha!

Taryn Louise, I am so impressed! I just went out and walked tonight for the first time....and number one-only walked a mile. number two-by the time I could walk (5:20-ish) it wasn't nearly as gorgeous out as it was earlier and my ears got cold. I need to beg Wendy to crochet me an ear warmer thingy...I am such a wimp. Number three-so proud of you! Keep going...a 5k will be nothing to you by May! Love you, K
