Lori runs the 5k

Today Lori ran in the Pleasant Grove, Strawberry Days 5K run! She had practiced for weeks at the rec-center on the treadmill, but this was her very first race and run on the road.

She was very nervous and wondered if she could do it. But she was determined!

























She lined up with the crowd

















Which was very large. (She is invisable behind someone).


















But she did it! She ran up major hills and over pavement like she never had before. She looked like a pro coming into the finishing gate!



















A famous rock star / Santa Clause patted her on the back for her great time (37 min)!

















We are all so proud of her. It was not easy and she did it. She really did it!
