Running Stud

This post is 100% dedicated to my awesome husband. He has taken to the sport of running and I couldn't be more proud! A couple of weeks ago we did the Butterfly Boogie 5K and he finished in 19:59 (sub 20 mins, what?what?). This Saturday he ran the "Jog with the Frog" 5K in Fair Park and I was there 100% to be his fan and not a participant. Although I forgot my camera (I know, lame fan) you better believe I was running and screaming and clapping as he finished SECOND overall with the time of 19:38. That's about a 6:10 minute mile. I did get home and take some pics of him with his FIRST PLACE age group medal. And yes, it is proudly donning the mantel.


Look at that smile, I think he was happy with his time as well :)


And friends, let me tell you....track workouts are what helped him get to sub 20 minutes, but these are the new secret. Racing shoes. That's right, he's very excited and will be wearing them this weekend as he prepares for the much anticipated Lake Highlands 5K.


Purple and frogs go perfect in our house. Atleast for this week :)!
Now, if I could just get him to train past the 5K distance....I'm thinking Boston next Patriot's Day?
Happy Running!
