Shamrock Shuffle

This year for St. Patricks Day I headed out to the Lebanon green and ran a fun 5K race with some of my good friends here in New Hampshire.  It was the perfect race to participate in after a long running hiatus this winter.  It sort of kick started my workouts again and got me motivated to register for Half-Marathon that I am doing in May....yikes.  We all wore fun festive socks that Maren picked up from her Target trip and off we went.  I didn't end up running side by side with any of the girls but had a great time and was pleased to even have Jesse and the kids come at the end.  My time wasn't great (approx 30 minutes), but I was pleased to finally be out there running again!

*and Maren was amazing running at 31 weeks pregnant!!! She is sort of my hero :)
