Everyone is sick...

I have been working on my race recap from this weekend.  It was an amazing race, and I did a lot better than I thought I would.  I hope to have it out soon.  Things have been crazy.  My wife and two girls are sick, and I am doing my best to not be sick.  I have been busy helping them, and I hope to have my report done soon.

Just a little side note, I just wanted to tell you that I believe in the power of prayer.  Saturday night, Jenn had a temp of 101.8.  She was not feeling good at all.  We said our family prayer that night and in her prayer she said, "I have trained really hard for this race and this day, please make me well enough to race in the morning." That night she slept great and when she woke up, she felt 100%.  She ran a great race, and finished second in her age group!  She then helped with the water station our running group was in charge of and then ran me in my last mile.  The moment she got back in the van to go get our kids, the fever came back, and she has been sick ever since.  Heavenly Father knew how important that day was for her. 

So our goal is to get everyone healthy!  I didn't run this morning because I am feeling sick, and I had to take care of Jenn and the kids before I went to work.  I hope I can run Wednesday. My legs really need a recovery run.

Aw, I hope everyone is well soon. My whole family has been sick the past couple days too. I'm the caretaker, sucking down Emergen-C in hopes to avoid it...

My daughter got sick over the weekend, too--hoping to keep her brother healthy and get her well again. I hope your family feels better soon and that you continue to avoid it. And I'm looking forward to the race report.
