All In the Family
I just got back from a family vacation to Bethany Beach, DE with my parents, Kent's family and Krissy's crew as well. We had a fantastic week doing the usual beach activities like playing in the sand, mini-golfing and eating. One of the best parts of my week was having everyone take part in my training. Shannon started it off by riding bike with me and measuring out my mileage. Krissy joined in by riding the bike next to me as I ran a 7-miler on Tuesday. I joined Kent and Jasmine for a cross-training bike ride on Wednesday. My mom had a water bottle ready for me at the end of my Thursday speed workout. My dad probably had the toughest job of the week, riding his bike next to me for an hour and a half on Saturday as I ran my long run! Finally, a huge thanks to Parker, Abby, Sarah, and Max - my nieces and nephews - who faithfully stretched with me everyday. This training is contagious and I am grateful for the support that the Heberlig crew gave to me the last week. Anyone else finding company?

That's so great! What a gift to have so much support and active involvement.
I can't say that I have found company which has been a struggle this season. I recently found a team partner for my long runs/walks but nothing during the week where I really could use it. It's just part of being new to an area.
Hey Katie!
I loved being on vacation because Michael was able to run with me. It is such an encouragement to have others tag along!! Even words of encouragement make such a big difference! I'm getting ready to get going again this week. I'm starting slow, but hope to figure out some company as I build miles again.
