summertime

there are two things that i never do during the school year but for some reason become habits as soon as the weather warms up: running and reading. it's kind of funny how naturally they come to me during this wonderful time of the year but i love them while they're here.

i just finished catching fire, the second book in the hunger games trilogy. this series is up there with harry potter in it's addictive power but luckily less than half as long. so i just have to wait until august for the third and supposedly final book. i normally refuse to follow the trend and read the latest books, except i almost always give in and become among the biggest addicts. like with harry potter, and now hunger games. i never succumbed to twilight and i am quite proud of that fact.

wasatch back is coming up in less than a month. i'm a little nervous but i just keep remembering how great last year was. 12 runners, 2 vans, 188 miles. it's a little crazy but also amazingly fun!

this is a picture from last year. i stole the picture off alison's blog which is why the quality isn't great. let's just say i'm definitely going to pack a rain jacket and some warm clothes this year.

oh and there's one more word that describes my summers: math. i seem to love to take impossible math classes during the summer and this summer is no different. i'm participating in a math/stats program called "boot camp." should be tons of fun, right?

math, running, reading... how could a summer get better than that?
