:::Waves HELLO::: To all my peeps out there

[riverpestie]

Hey everyone!

Once again, long time no see.

Mr. K and I went on a 13 day road trip to Austin, TX, Big Bend National Park (where we hiked 12 miles to see the most awesome scenery ever), to Santa Fe, NM on up to Boulder where we did the Boulder 70.3! Both of us agree that it was the most difficult race, ever. We didn't get up there early enough to acclimate to the altitude (we live at sea level now) and doing a race that is over 70 miles in length with little oxygen, makes it tough for breathing.

We camped most of the time (round trip), except for when we stayed at my family members' homes.
Along the way, he met 3 more of my siblings! He had a great time and so did I.

We will be moving to Austin in about 2 weeks. We're going there this Saturday to look at some houses to lease and (hopefully) seal the deal - meaning sign the lease.

I start my new job on Sept. 17th and I JUST found out they are reimbursing me for moving expenses! How freaking cool!!

Other than that, it's the same ole same ole around here. We won our soccer game last night and I am still taking my dog (the one in the siggy) to the beach as much as I can, because I am not going to be close to it anymore.

I hope things have been okay around here! Did I miss anything interesting?

Hi! That sounds like a crazy run you did! 70 miles blows my mind! I'm not posting much here but I check in everyday to see how everyone is doing. Good luck house hunting!!

You're all so sweet! Thanks! :-)

Glad your back RP and glad things are going so well for you. The thought of competing in an Ironman makes me cringe, the thought of running it in that elevation makes my chest hurt a little...lol. Well done.
