Short-Term Running Goals:

Stay healthy!

Would like to BQ - need to shave 23 minutes off PR.

 

Long-Term Running Goals:

Keep running.

When I started running my wish that turned into a goal was to qualify for Boston. Just so I could say "I qualified for Boston."

AFTER BQ, I think I will do some Tri events.  For sure some Half Ironman events, and see where that takes me.

Personal:

Married to Kelly (with a 'Y')

Well, the wait is over. Phew!  She said yes!!!  I really have her fooled!

I took her for a walk around the temple grounds at the Timpanogos Temple and had some roses hidden in my "temple bag", then I gave her a gift of a necklace and then surprised her further by pulling the roses out of the bag and while she was looking at the roses I knelt on one knee and waited for her to look at me and ask her to marry me.  She said YES!  I then could breathe!  :-) 

Happy happy day!

No date planned right now, we have some paperwork to get done so we can have our special day in the Temple.  The bishops have told us it could be 3 weeks to 3 months to get it all done.  We will push for the 3 weeks!!!!

I'm excited!!!

There is it, the official announcement!! Sorry I am so late in the game! Worse, my husband saw this and commented but failed to tell me. Slightly different then when a woman hears news about a man proposing so romantically!! You are a beautiful couple and I am so darn happy for you!! CONGRATULATIONS!!!! :)

Congratulations Kelli and Jon, I think we all knew it was a match made in Heaven since Painters, you two are so cute together! I am very happy for you both!!! Please tell Kelli congratulations from me, and tell her I still think of her helping me thru Painters. She is a beautiful person, inside and out!

Kellie - Make Tyler take you out for not saying anything. :-) Thank you for the nice comments.

Leslie, Kelly really enjoyed helping you and Marion at Painters. That sure was fun.
