Castle Rock Duathlon



At the end of Feb. Stephanie and I participated in our first Duathlon. We started at Tuacahn and ran 1.5 mile then biked 12 miles and ran another 1.5 miles. It took us 1:15 min. I don't find running enjoyable so 3 miles was about as far as I want to go. When I got off my bike my hands were numb so it took me a couple of tries to changes my shoes and get them tied. Note to self get the zip laces for my running shoes. We had a great time. Chet and the boys were so supportive. The boys got so excited every time we passed them. What a blast!!


Chet and I have been married for eight years now. We live in Las Vegas and love it. While we miss our family we do not plan on moving away from Vegas any time. Chet works at a Tharpe and Howell Law Firm and enjoys his case load. I get to stay home with the boys and most of the time I like it. Twice a week I teach aerobics at 24 hour fitness. I really enjoy having something to help me relieve my stress. Plus I know that twice a week I will have to go to the gym. Right now my kids are just running around crazy, half fighting half playing. I guess I should go intervene.
Oh well, back to the blog. Chet and I are very different people, there is not much that we have in common. Having said that we do both love roller coaster and cannot wait for our next trip to Six Flags.

Garden Center


I have been wanting Chet to make me a box garden and he told me that he would not until I keep my shoes organized for a couple months. We all know that is not going to happen. I went to CA this past weekend and while Chet was getting ready for the day Cooper said to Chet,"Mom wants a garden but you won't make one until she organize her shoes on the show rack." Chet said, "yep that's right" Cooper, "I will do it for her." And then he matched up all my shoes and put them on the rack. What a thoughtful guy. He is so sweet.
