5K Fundraiser

So, Nate and I just got an e-mail from some friends (Matt and Bonnie Hargreaves for any Bellinghammers who might know them) who are putting on a 5k in Payson. Her sister has been fighting cancer for several years. She is married and has two lovely kiddos, so if there are any 5k runners out there (or anyone who would like to do their very first 5K!) this would be a great race to participate in. I feel so much better knowing 100% of my entrance fee is going towards a family in need rather than a race director! It's on Saturday, April 30th which is literally the day before I have this baby, but I am going to sign up anyway and try to be there. I may find myself a little stressed out that day, but what better way to celebrate the birth of my little one by running (more like shuffling these days) a race AND helping others? What a great way to kick off the racing season! If this sounds like something you're interested in here is the link to register:

I KNOW I have some awesome readers who are also runners, so get in on this one! You won't regret it!

Hey! That is great! It is going to be an awesome race. Heath and Mahogani are race directing it. I think. Well, I am pretty sure. I can't believe you are going to try to do it. You are awesome!

Did Bonnie and Sarah go to Spanish Fork High School?? I think I went to school with them. I'll be there with you for the 5K for sure!
