My company sponsored a corporate team this year. It was nice having so many friendly faces (and florescent green shirts) in the crowd. I hadn't planned on running since it would be less than 2 months after having Carolyn, but 4 weeks after her birth, I felt great and signed-up.
I'm glad I did. It motivated me to get running and into shape. I ran the race with my friend Pam and I especially enjoyed that. It was her first race and we had the same pace. She's a competitive booger so we pushed each other to the end. It wasn't my best time (worst actually) at 29:16, but hey, I have the excuse of having a baby less than 2 months prior to the race! I doubt many runners can say that :)

you are certainly an inspiration! But I guess we knew that we you were going to the SRSC at 5am freshmen year! How many times did Kelly and I accompany you - twice, maybe?
Oh...my...goodness!!! I cannot believe you did that, Tara. Good for you!!! It took me a good 9 months to start working out with either kid. I'm impressed!!!
Michelle, you're giving me way too much credit. I think I only went to the SRSC once in the morning!! Wow Tara, that is awesome! I'm really proud of you.
I think Kelly's right Michelle. You two tried it once is all I remember :)
Thanks guys for all the praise.
Way to go Tara!!! You are awesome. I hope I'm as motivated as you after the babycomes. I remember it was at least a month after Leah was born before I made it to the end of the street. Being that it's summer, I'm dying to get some exercise but can barely get myself out of the chair!! :-)
