This weekend Matthew and Brad reconnected in a romantic getaway in Sedona.
They allowed Shanna and I to tag along because we are curious about the supernatural and metaphysical worlds and Sedona is a hotbed for aging hippies and new agers who know a lot about UFO's and auras.

it was a great trip. Thanks Kesbones........Oh yeah, since we were in town we decided to run a 1/2 marathon. No biggie.
Correction: HUGE BIGGIE. Since our August pledge to run a half marathon Shanna and I have logged quite a few miles jogging/chatting.
We ended our 6 long months of training (way tooo long) by joining our fellow runners in Sedona to run 13.1 miles of the HILLIEST course I could have ever imagined. The scenery was beautiful, The mini snickers were delicious, The Ibuprofen was plentiful, the display of flesh and spandex was mind boggling, and the finish line was one of the sweetest sites I have ever seen.
Matthew showing his support and devotion by touching my armpits after the race, yikes!
Shanna and I getting our post race stretch on at the Giant gas station. If you wanna see my medal, good luck. Either I lost it or Brad has stolen it and is secretly wearing it under his shirt. If you wanna see more pics you can check it here.If you wanna ask me how I started this sojourn never having run more that 1 consecutive mile in my life to becoming a professional athlete, don't bother I will tell you anyway.

I am in awe. Even more so because I ran with you in the days before your transformation to a professional athlete.
Now can we talk about your cute boots in the after picture? Loves them. please teach me how to be fashionable again.
Go you! I think you have inspired me to start running!
SIX MONTHS, NUTS! I was looking into a 1/2 in april and thought it was possible but never mind forget that one. you are amazing! and look amazing in spandex.
I'm glad we are still friends after such a freaky-deaky weekend. I called your husband babe, Brad kept making swinger jokes, and well you know what else happened.
I would like to hear the story of how you transformed from sitter to sprinter. Please enlighten me.
Lindsay, these are the reasons I'm extending you an invite to my blog, even though I never comment on yours either.
1. You're husband put his hands in your sweaty armpits after a 13.1 mile run.
2. I totally relate to your post in the past regarding not being able to get frequent pedicures and having old crackly painted toes as a result.
3. You said my kid was cute (that form of flattery alone placed you in the the invite box)
4. You and Matt love the Suns and while I'm married to a Lakers fanatic I secretly can't close of the piece of my heart that loves those blazing Suns.
5. You mentioned publicly our tendency to lose bladder control, which cracked me up.
6. You're invited
xoxo,
Lynn Slade Halladay
I laughed so much at the picture of Matthew + your armpits. That's true love.
