This morning I got up early (it's HOT here!) and Roxie and I went for a 5 mile walk in beautiful Ramona. She enjoyed seeing cows, goats, a snake (YUCK!) and a sheep dog being trained to herd the sheep. We were back by about 9am and it felt so good! She was a good walking partner. Tomorrow is 3 miles and then brunch at the golf course with all 4 Flaherty's and my my folks. Not too shabby!

5 Miles in Ramona
This weekend I surprised my Mom for MOther's Day and flew down to San Diego. Dana and Alex picked me up, and I stayed hidden in the car as we drove up to my parents house. Dana got out and said "I picked something up for you" and opened my door where I jumped out and said "Happy Mother's Day!" She was completely shocked and cried a little, so our surprise was successfull! Its been a great weekend so far!

20 Miles this weekend!
Well, I had a little bit of a set back with my ankle. Matt and I were running for the bus after the Dodger game, and the next morning I REALLY felt it in my foot. It felt like it was made of stone, so I did not walk Thursday or Friday. Saturday was go day for a 13 mile walk with Dee. So I took a Tylenol, and hoped for the best.
Happily, I was able to make it through all 13 miles, which took us from the Castro, through the park, down the coast, around Stowe Lake, and finally looping through Alamo Square and back to the Castro. We were pretty sore by the time we landed back at Dee's house, and I went straight home to hop in an Epson salt bath. So nice!
Matt and I did my 7 mile follow up walk on Sunday, from our house to Union Square and then up Powell Street (nice hill!) to Washington and then down around the Embarcadero. It was a good thing I had Matt with me, because I would have been tempted to cheat a little off the mileage! :)
So far, so good! Next week we get to do a Avon walk with Reece Witherspoon in Potrero Hill, which we are super excited about going to. (Cancun burritos afterwards don't hurt either) Thank you again for all of your support so far! I'll keep you updated!
