I Was Running: Addiction
http://givingtherunaround.blogspot.com/2011/02/addiction.html
Monday, February 21, 2011. Hi My name is Kara and I'm addicted to running. It's the only conclusion I could come to after rehashing my Saturday long run to my husband. Him: How was your run? I then went on for minutes and minutes about how during the entire 7.5 miles, I never warmed up. How it suddenly started snowing, like, HARD at about mile 4. Have you ever seen an animal in the middle of a snow storm out in the middle of a field and thought, Oh, poor cow. I was the cow. Why in the world? I could've s...

I Was Running: March 2010
http://givingtherunaround.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Thursday, March 4, 2010. So Good To See You Again. It's been a long time, hasn't it? It was kind of awkward meeting you today. That familiar awkwardness that comes from meeting an old flame. It took me a few minutes to feel that rhythm we used to have. We haven't seen each other in so long. I can't even remember the last time. You understand why I stayed away don't you? But today wasn't a dream! I missed you running. But I'm glad we found each other. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). So Good To See You Again.

I Was Running: Music and Gear For the Long Run
http://givingtherunaround.blogspot.com/2011/03/music-and-gear-for-long-run.html
Saturday, March 5, 2011. Music and Gear For the Long Run. Music is an essential part of my running regimen. Every once in a while I will go sans tunes because I think it's right to be one with where you are. There is something almost sacred about your feet hitting the earth while you hear the birds talk, see the leaves blow, smell the cows and notice the melting snow. Sounds So Good - Ashton Shepherd. Coldplay - various, always from Viva la Vida! Battle Hymn of the Republic - MoTab (you better believe it).

I Was Running: Run or Freeze aka SoJo 5K
http://givingtherunaround.blogspot.com/2011/02/run-or-freeze-aka-sojo-5k.html
Monday, February 14, 2011. Run or Freeze aka SoJo 5K. I officially kicked of the 2011 racing season with a sweet little 5K in South Jordan. Running with my friend Steph was a definite highlight. The cute Wickify shirts with a cupid on them in honor of Valentine's Day was another outstanding highlight. Not to mention the pink bag our swag stuff came in. Good thing we were there to run, otherwise, what a stupid day to go to the park! It was the least amount of time I've ever spent at a finish line. I'm Not...

I Was Running: April 2009
http://givingtherunaround.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Sunday, April 19, 2009. I now have a treadmill at my disposal. I'm pretty sure this is a bad thing. Before, with no treadmill, I had to plan the best time of day to run. Daylight, temperature, etc. But now? It's available to me 24/7! I'm trying not to take advantage of that. I feel like when I run on a treadmill, it makes it harder to run outside. But that's where all the races take place! Stick to the road! Friday, April 3, 2009. Is going to be su-weet. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Steph's Fight: April 2012
http://stephsfight.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
Friday, April 13, 2012. It feels so good to be able to say that I am done. My reconstruction surgery went very well. Eventhough the anthesthesia made me pretty sick- it only lasted that first day. I am feeling really good now. The pain is managable with some ibuprophen and I am being a good girl and resting. I promised a picture as soon as I had some fuzz on my head. I have some, but it is very hard to see in a picture. It is baby soft and very fine. Hopefully I can get a good picture soon.

Steph's Fight: June 2012
http://stephsfight.blogspot.com/2012_06_01_archive.html
Sunday, June 10, 2012. Then the next was my last day of work at the high school and everybody kept telling me I could go without a hat (Heather had been telling me that for a while) so I ditched it right then and there. I really appreciate all of you that have told me its cute. I can't wait for it to be longer so I can actually do something with it! I feel so blessed. We were able to stay in our ward and the Rawlings (the sellers) were so patient with the sale of our home. It was all meant to be ...If yo...

Steph's Fight: Celebration
http://stephsfight.blogspot.com/2012/02/celebration.html
Wednesday, February 22, 2012. Sometimes you just gotta party! Doesn't this look like fun? This is my end of chemo celebration we had last Saturday. My neighborhood friends are wearing hats made by Virginia (in the pink sweater) that we decorated with flowers. We completed 24 hats! They will be going on the free hat tree where I had my chemo treatments. Friends and service- oh I can't forget the cheesecake. It was so yummy! Which brings me to another subject. My taste is back! Back on the 11th Steve and I...
