Run, Bella, Run

After years of artistic endeavors and rebuffing all of my suggestions that Bella try a sport, this year she decided she wanted to run Cross Country.  Of all the sports to start with???  But hoo-rah!  The first two or three weeks were rough, but she has settled into it and loves it.  Each meet she gets faster and faster.  Now there is talk of running Track in the spring and next year's season.  She may just have turned into a athlete after all.

In other news, I decided I wanted to try a speed run to see if I could run as fast as her still.  Well I did 3 miles in 25:18.  Not too shabby.  But now I hurt!  I think it may be final.  She may just be better than me.  Start midlife crisis, now! :)
