PRESIDENT GORDON B. HINCKLEY

"To you women of today who are old or young, may I suggest to you that you write, that you keep journals, that you express your thoughts on paper. Writing is a great discipline. It is a tremendous education effort. It will assist you in various ways, and you will bless the lives of many-now and in the years to come, as you put on paper some of your experiences and some of your musings"

Ragnar: SOOOO FUN!

When life offers you something new...take it! I took Ragnar. I signed up for one crazy race! My friends said anyone at any skill level can do it so I trusted them and became "runner 7." It's the easiest leg but for me it was just right. The second leg (8PM) was a 4 mile run with about a 3 mile hill and I made it...barely. The others were fine. The whole event was so fun. I LOVED the night runs. Seeing everyone with their headlamps and reflectors was sooo cool. The most gorgeous view was the moon reflecting on the lake. I wasn't as tired as I thought I would be. The adrenaline kicked in for sure. All of it was a BLAST! The girls I ran with made it that way! I love them all. There was Jill(captain), Jessica, Jamie, Chelsa and Stacie. They are amazing athletes and they inspire me to push myself and they gave me the confidence I needed to run. There were some weird moments though; lets just say there was some pee and pooh involved. We took my car and wrote on the window "The Real Ragnar Housewives of Draper- 84020" Loved it!

I want to run next year!
