BYU Baseball

We were fortunate enough this year to have the BYU baseball/softball teams offer BYU Faculty free season tickets for their entire family. We had so much fun. As you can see, some of the games were warmer than others. We also had to enjoy a fun treat (thank you Krispie Kreme) on the way home. We went to several of the baseball games and to 3 or 4 softball games. Despite having a deathly fear of Cosmo the Cougar (at least Grayce and Emma did), everyone had a lot of fun. Our new tricks: #1 - When Cosmo comes close, have Dad say, "No thank-you Cosmo. Go talk to someone else." #2 - When Cosmo is anywhere in eye-shot, put a blanket over your head. Because, if you can't see Cosmo, he can't see you. (both versions were so fun to watch).
Our family is definately a baseball family. We mourned the end of BYU's seasons, but we are thick into baseball and softball seasons of our own now. Abby, Bryant, and Tyler are all playing city league, and Bryant is playing on a competitive Super-League team. Many of our days are now partially filled with watching games. We LOVE it. I don't think there is anything better than watching the kids play. It is so much fun!! Abby is playing mostly 3rd base. Bryant pitches and plays 1st base. Tyler plays all over. However, he suprises all of the other kindergarteners when he bats. He starts into coach pitch this year.

Running?

I am going to do it.
I am training for my 10K.
I just finished another 5K (The Susan Komen Race for the Cure in SLC). It was a fun race to be a part of with so many other people. Now, I am going to take the plunge - although for most people it wouldn't be considered a plunge - in the world of 10Kers. I know I will be able to finish it. I have been regularly running 3-4 miles. However, it seems like any time you decide to do something you have never done before, the doubts come.
I am one that has to do things completely. I don't like doing things 1/2 way. So, if I am going to run the 10K, there is no walking, I will run from start to finish. I guess that is part of the reason why I am not going to run a marathon - EVER!! My ultimate goal is to one day run a 1/2 marathon. My sweet husband (I'm sure to be encouraging) told me he was sure I could enter and finish the AF Canyon 1/2 marathon - NEXT MONTH!! Needless to say, that one is off the docket! However, I will run this 10K next month, another 5K in a couple of weeks, a 10K in September, and then we will look at getting ready for the 1/2 marathon next year.
If anyone has done it before and has any good advice, I would love it!! I guess at least after all is said and done I will know if running really is for me or not. I know I am not fast, but I am a finisher. So, here goes.....
