Believe it or not, Trey & I are running in a race. The Utah Marathon Relay. I'm really hoping I don't collapse and kill over after the first mile. I'm not exactly a runner. Neither is Trey for the most part. I'm excited to use my awesome, super comfy running shoes. I haven't really tested them out yet for a distance longer than 1.5 miles. Like I said earlier, not a big runner. We're doing it to support Trey's mom because she wanted to get a bunch of the Banburys together and run in this race. I'm so proud of her, she said she wanted to run the first leg. GO ROBIN! There are 5 of us in the race and we'll each run 5.2 miles. Not bad, right? It doesn't SOUND bad. We'll see how it goes. I'm okay with a speed walk/slow jog for part of the time. I don't think we're trying to place or anything so no pressure...I hope! I'm excited to be part of Team Banbury. Team Banbury consists of me, Trey, Robin(Trey's mom), Lauree(Trey's sissy), and Cory(Lauree's hubby). Heath will be our back up in case anyone gets injured or passes out along the way. :)
If anyone would like to come watch, please do! It should be a good time. I think the address is on the website. Wish us luck!

How fun! Good luck! Go team Banbury!
Are all participants part of a relay? Or are some running the whole marathon? I asked cuz a couple of years ago I ran the Ogden marathon with a relay and I was running (& talking) amongst people who still had 10 miles to go (& they'd already done 16) and it felt very good to me to know I could stop in a couple! :) It helped me keep going knowing how "easy" I had it.
that's awesome! good luck! YOU CAN DO IT! i'm not a runner either, and i've done a couple half marathons wondering WHY the whole time! but being on a team sounds like a lot more fun! go team banbury!!!
