Nuunbassador 2015



I am so excited to be named a Nunnbassador for 2015! I've claimed my that my thirty-ninth year is going to be awesome so far it's proven to be pretty amazing. I was so excited to receive my email from Nuun notifying me that I had been selected. How fitting that I received my notification on the 17th, nine months from which I will be turning 40. 2015 is going to be epic. I told you all.

In the spirit of 39 I've been saying yes, stepping outside my comfort zone so when I saw the Facebook post advertising for applications for the 2015 Nuun ambassador program I figured why not? I had just been looking at my calendar and was researching different races. I love Nuun, so it's easy to represent their company.  I hopped over to their website and filled out the application.

So today I am bugging over the excitement that I get to represent Nuun for the next year!

First Race of 2016: Easy Like Sunday Morning

Image
Leia and I ran our first half marathon together on March 6th, the Lincoln City Elk Stampede, also known as the Lincoln City Half Marathon & 10k. I've done the 10k the past two years. I wanted to do one half marathon before my half Iron Man in June, since Leia is my running partner she got to cross off completing her first half marathon off her bucket list.  In the parking lot waiting in our car. Leia wasn't too sure what to think with all the people milling about. This was Leia's very first race. She could sense the energy and knew that she was going for a run, with me in my running gear, her blue leash in sight, and her bright green pack in the backseat. She had only ran once with a group. Usually we run solo along busy Highway 101.  The first six miles of the race Leia was super excited and had lots of energy, pulling me at times. I didn't want to start off too fast so I had to reign her in. Usually she is right beside me or slightly be

She was putting together a team of 12 ladies to do the inaugural race. She told me to visit the website, where I read that each person would run a total of three times, each leg between 3-7 miles over a 24 hour period. The relay climbs the backside of Anthony Lakes reaching 7,100 ft. altitude then then down through the Grand Ronde Valley ending at River Side Park. Unfortunately it was the same weekend as the girls' annual Missoula Children's Theatre and I was not able to do it.  I was secretively thankful at that ti

Live Your Life Like One Long Holiday

I just completed a Hospice training earlier this week that has left me thinking about holidays, especially the grief that forever surrounds holidays once you have lost a loved one. Mother's Day is in a few days. I as grow older I realize that I really don't like holidays. I know that sounds harsh but coming from a type A, perfectionist I don't like the undo stress and unrealistic expectations that holidays conjure up. With the recent passing of my father-in-law, holidays this year evokes sadness. What I do love is being around my family and impromptu celebrations. Like my older daughter shaving off a few minutes from her 1,500 meter time and my youngest daughter finishing her 5th grade math curriculum a month early. Both of which I know my late father-in-law would be extremely proud of. The yearly tradition of celebrating Mother's Day and Father's Day is breakfast in bed followed by a day of leisure. Sunday I have a four mile run scheduled, then I am looking for
