My Favorite Quote-   "When you get into a tight place and everything goes against you, till it seems as though you could not hold on a minute longer, never give up then, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn." -Harriet Beecher Stowe

I started running in May of 2006 while losing 85 lbs after my youngest was born.  I have 6 fantastic kids, 3 girls and 3 boys and a wonderful husband.  My oldest is in college and my baby is in pre-school. (Six kids in 5 schools ;)

We did the American Cancer Society Making Strides Against Breast Cancer 4 mile walk/run today at Liberty Park.  Maurine, Kelli, Kylee, Lynn and I ran.  Anna, Ashley, Kate, Jill, Shay, Sarah, Brittany, Ashley, Leslie, Odee and Harold walked.  We had a GREAT time!  Kelli went to Sugar House park first for her warm-up and then eventually found us at Liberty Park!  Thank you Scott for directing her :)  It was great!  It was so fun to bring my girls and their friends.  I loved having my great friend Jill there and my wonderful running friends Kelli, Leslie and Maurine.  It was great to finally meet you in person, Maurine!  You too Harold and the beautiful Odee!  That is one handsom dog!  Kylee, you ROCKED!!! You are a runner chick!!!

As a side note- Kylee, my sister-in-law came with us today in honor of her mother, Arelene Pommerville, who battled breast cancer for 17 years and passed away last October.  She was a remarkable person who never gave up.  Our team name this year was in honor of her-

We will NEVER shrink,

We will NEVER quit,

We will NEVER SURRENDER!!!

All of our love goes to Arelene's 11 children and her sweet husband who ALL loved her and made her life the most amazing thing!
