Marienthal 5K

We welcomed St. Patrick's Day Weekend with a 3.1 mile run hosted by the Marienthal Meadowlarks 4-H Club. There were 60 participants ranging in ages from 10 - 60. A little bit of training before hand would have helped but either way we all made it across the finish line. Matt got second in his age group running a time of 31:38 and I got 3rd in my age group with a time of 41:28. We've got plenty of room to improve! We did not keep up with Paul Hartley, my coworker, running a time of 23:45 getting 3rd overall!! Todd Long, Matt's dad, also participated placing in his age group too! All in all, we all did well! I can at least say, running in a 5K is officially off of my Live It List!

♥FAMILY♥


Christmas was a little delayed at the Long Residence, waiting for Matt's sister and family to arrive from Africa and his brother to fly in from San Fransisco.  Finally, on January 20 we were all in one place. It was a fast, but still an enjoyable Christmas spending it with Family. We even topped with off with a homemade cream pie.....mmm....mmmmmm.
