I decided to run the BYU Homecoming 5k. I’ve always wanted to run it, but most years I was in the parade with the cheer squad. A 5k distance is definitely not my race, in fact it is only my 2nd 5k ever, but it’s fun to race no matter what distance it is. I went out too fast and died a little by the end. I ended up racing a 19:34 and taking 2nd in my age group. The top 3 overall (excluding BYU track athletes) received cash prizes. I thought I kept pretty good track of who was in front of me and finished the race thinking I’d won the $50, 3rd place prize, but I had missed a girl. I actually came in 9 seconds after the 3rd place girl & took 4th. I was a little bummed about that, but it wasn’t a big deal.
Lilah all bundled up at the race.
That night Tom and I were able to get tickets to the football game. The game started at 8:15pm! Lilah goes to bed between 8:30 and 9pm, so Lacey and Travis were nice enough to put her to bed for us so that we could go to the game. It was so nice to go out just the 2 of us. Tom is my favorite person in the world to be with, and we had a great time.
Tom got this amazing sweatshirt from my Dad for his birthday this year! Thanks again Dad!
AJ & I stunting at half time
We both went down onto the field at half time and Tom took pictures of us in a cheerleading alumni performance. It was really fun to see a bunch of people that we spent so much time with. Thanks again AJ for stunting with me, and thank you BYU for pulling out another win and end our night on a positive note!
