Claretta – Week 39

More 5k FUN!

Mix seven girl-friends and 5000+ people and you have the Blue Bell Fun Run!

This past Saturday was a complete blast and I (along with my buds) was able to complete my 2^nd wogging event! I registered for the 5k and completed it in 55:36, which is my new personal best! I started out walking with Jackie and after a few minutes into the walk, plugged into my iPod and took off. (I checked with Jackie first!)

I had forgotten how many hills there are in Brenham!! OMGoodness! The weather was beautiful but windy and combined with the hills, it did slow me down. There was lots of beautiful scenery – but NO bluebonnets! Well, there was one small patch of flowers we saw on the way back to the car.

Anyway, it was a great event and the best part was at the end of the fun run when we could eat all the Blue Bell ice cream we wanted!! I chose to inhale 2 rainbow popsicles and a peach fruit bar! So yummy and a ton of fun!!!

While we were waiting for the start, a lady came over to me and commented on the t-shirt I was wearing. It was my shirt from my first funrun, the San Jacinto fun run a month or so ago. Turns out, she was the coordinator for that event and we had a nice time talking about how much fun that event was. Speaking of that, I’m famous now!! My picture showed up on the San Jacinto newsletter. 

I’m available for autographs all day!!
