The "Event" after the Heart Challenge


Although the Heart Challenge was over at the first part of September, several members from the challenge ran Mike's Mad Dash on September 26th. It has been amazing to see the transformation of our group!
Right before the Heart Challenge started I walked a 5K. This time I was able to run/walk the 5K within 33 min 21 sec. I hope we all keep moving toward our goals.
I am scheduled to run another 5K on October 24th and hope to shave at least 3 min and 21 seconds off my time. I still have quite a ways to go before I reach my goal but I now know it is obtainable. Many thanks to Monica for walking with me at lunchtime. You are an amazing friend, co-worker, mom and wife! I also have to thank my trainer, Heidi. You are awesome!
Many thanks to Intermountain Healthcare for allowing me to receive this life changing experience. Intermountain's logo "Healing for Life" is truly a motto they live by.
