For Father's Day I ordered a cake from a local Vietnamese baker and told them on the phone that I want it to say "We Love You Daddy" When we got our cake, they somehow made a mistake and wrote We Love YOUR Daddy. haha We definitely had a good laugh! Apparently they love him too! On Saturday I ran an 8k race to support the CHKD and it was such an invigorating feeling to cross the finish line with the pace of 9:46 per mile. I finished 51 out of 171 finishers in my age group! My body felt so renewed and refreshed and can't wait do another race. Documenting the race through my iphone Kaylee was super excited for her first 8K! Before the race After the race, we are still smiling! Couldn't have done it without my coworker who helped me trained for the 5 miles! Me being cool ha ha If you run, you are a runner. It doesn't matter how fast or how far.

Here is a little late recap of my weekend. I recently ran the CHKD 8K race (5 mile) My goal was to just run the whole thing without stopping and I am happy to say that I did it! It feels so good to set a goal and made it! Trust me, I hate running but because I am so motivated to get my pre-prego body back and with no time to gym..running is the best option for me. I usually get up around 5am and run a mile or more couple times a week if I'm not lazy tired. My next race is the 10k this October and I really want to do the Shamrock half marathon next March if I am ready. I was kinda bummed that we didnt get to take any pix before the run so most of these are right after the race. The race was at 730AM so we were super tired and exhausted..oh and not to mention that it was in the 90s that day!! My running partner! I don't think I can run the whole thing without her. (check out her engagement photos I did for her here !) Hubby looking pretty tired..he beat me by 40 sec!!! ...
