38th bday

I decided I wanted to run 38 miles on my 38th bday. This brilliant idea stayed in my head until I ran the Top of Utah Half Marathon and had a fabulous race but also remembered how much it hurts to run 13 miles let alone 38! I also started to wonder if I really wanted to devote that many hours of my birthday to running instead of enjoying my family.
I decided to run 38 miles within my birthday week - 8 yesterday, 12 tomorrow, 4 Monday, and 14 on Tuesday. I hope you're not all disappointed in me but give me a break, I'm getting old! 
So what do you think - smart plan or I wimped out?

Inspiring Women

I love being around other women who inspire me to be a better person (without making me feel like dog dung in the process. You know what I'm talking about, sometimes we see someone who's amazing and instead of wanting to do better it just makes us feel crappy about ourselves. If you're having this problem you have to read President Uchtdorf's message).
My little sister's bday is today (Happy Birthday Abbie!) so we went on a fun girl's night Saturday. The women who came are amazing and I learned from each one of them: how to be a better wife, Mom, friend, author, and to be healthier and more fit. Yeah for girl's night out and for fabulous women who inspire others.
