Happy 4th of July

We headed up to my family's cabin on the 4th of July. My Little sister Ang found out that there was a 5k in Oakley in the morning. My sister July and her husband Cory just ran the Wasatch Back right before in June, Ang had been running, Matt and I had been running so Ang asked if we wanted to run it. We all decided it would be fun and also a good motivator for Matt and I. I had run 2 5k races in the past but I think I barely stopped in the middle to walk like once or twice. So this time I had a goal to run my fastest and to run the whole time. I never stopped and actually took 2 minutes off my time!! I still was very slow;) Next year I will try to beat my time.....we want to do it next year everyone in again?? 

Also, during the race I started to get sick and this is when all my health problems recently started. Little did I know that I was having a "flare-up" and it can start up while I am excercising. I have recently found out  "flare-up"'s are and now I know why I was sick during the race. It had to do with my Adrenal Fatigue, my Hashimoto's, and autoimmune gastritis. Anywho I didn't really know what it was at the time, so I just enjoyed myself and didn't worry;). I will tell about the details in another blog. Crazy though huh?

 After the race we went to the parade. We got a good spot at the end of the parade route. The floats threw out SO much candy, we didn't know what to do with it all. The floats wanted to get rid of what they had and no one was around to fight to the candy. Pretty Sweet! Candy for Everyone!!
