The Perfect Example

Howdy, folks! You know how we were talking on Monday about changing things up, trying something new, going out of our comfort zones? Well…I have a perfect example for you. My MOM. And guess what…today is her BIRTHDAY!

HAPPY BRITHDAY MOM!

She picked up running about 4 years ago and enjoyed running 5ks and 10ks and just doing it for exercise. Then 2 years ago she decided to do a half marathon! She rocked it! She did something that was challenging and new, and it was a great experience!

I’ve never met someone that takes such good pictures while running the last mile of a race. Seriously.

Hey, mom. Thanks for being my biggest support and best friend. Some day, I hope I’m half the person you are! Happy, happy birthday!

    Your mom is awesome and adorable!! I love the first picture of the two of you, and I am totally jealous of her cute running picture! (I take horrible running pictures:). I think that's SO great that she picked it up recently and totally rocked a half marathon! Way to go!!

    That's the kind of mom I want to be. I want my kids to grow up thinking it's normal to run and workout. I want them to see my and my husband racing and competing well into our 50's, 60's and 70's.
