1st day of Ragnar training




kyler fell asleep around the last corner and man was he out sorry to say brooklyn was wide awake.





Ok so as a family we decided we're running ragnar this year. For those of you who don't know what it its its a cross country relay race from logan to park city ut. It take 12 people each running 3 legs 2 days and covers 192 miles. The aveage runner runs about 15 miles over the two days. but up and down mountains during the day and the night in whatever weather June 15 and 16th will have for us. So anyway thats what i've gotten myself into. So i decided today before it gets cold again i would start my training.




Well i think the world or karma didn't want me to start today. I decided to get some music ready to train to so i know what song i want where. I always listen to music on my runs anyway so i just i figured i would get some pump up songs and ones with a good steady beat i could have a good pace to. Since i did that i didn't even thing about acutally getting outside till 11:30. But since kurtis called and said he wouldn't be home for lunch i figured ok so i got the kids ready in warm clothes with a warm bottle and hot chocolate for kyler and out we went. .... and thats about where it stopped momentarily anyway. i had a tire that was flat so i figured no biggy mom and dad got kurtis an air compressor for chirstmas last year so i was just going to air it up quick easy done right. ... WRONG. My tire had a huge bust out flat. so off to walmart got the kids in the car. got the tire and some ink and back home we went. Got the tire on and off we went. Mind you a storm in coming in so the wind was a little crazy i tried to keep the kids out of it for the most part. all that for a 15 min run. WOW lol any way here are some pic from our first day.
