Running a 5k on Thanksgiving Day

For three years now, it has become a tradition for me and the kids to run a 5k on Thanksgiving Day. We ran the Pelican Lakes Turkey Trot 5k in Windsor, CO. It was fun. Both me and my daughter got 3rd place in our age divisions and won a pie. It was cold, but the run was good and challenging.

Lots to be thankful for this day, including the ability to run. This race benefited Athletes in Tandem, an organization dedicated to helping athletes of all abilities compete in outdoor activities.

I’m Grateful I Can Run for Town Board…

This is my first foray into any type of public office.  It’s been on my heart for a while now and the timing is right.

So far, it’s been fun.  I’ve learned a ton about what’s happening in Windsor, CO (the greatest place to live in my humble opinion).  I’ve met some amazing people.  I’ve opened up to new opportunities, experiences, and events.

I’m extremely grateful I live in a country such as the United States where I can run for public office and represent others who put their trust in me.  It’s extremely humbling and amazing all at the same time.

I want to thank all of my supporters for such an opportunity.

Win or lose this has been an amazing ride!
