Cougar Run and College GameDay

As most of the Cox family does, Jane has been running these days. She ran in her very first 5k ever, the Cougar Run, homecoming weekend at BYU. After months of training, running up and down our neighborhood and valuable training tips from Dad, Jane not only reached but surpassed her goal. Basically she would like to be the fastest in the family, but since we have a "running snob" in the family, i.e., Joanne, she settled for a time of 26:57! Her goal was 28 minutes, but was worried she would have a hard time even finishing under thirty. I knew that she was going to blow her time away and sure enough she did. Now were looking for her to do another race, Dipsea anyone?

In other news, for those Cougar fans that didn't know, ESPN College Gameday come to Provo for the first time ever last week. The game didn't go so well, I won't even get into that, but the GameDay show was awesome! A few friends and I went to the show early and shoved our way up to about the tenth row of people so we were right in the action. Maybe you saw us on TV in the crowd. Lee Corso totally screwed us and didn't pick BYU, a move that payed off for him in the end, but Kirk Herbstreit did as well as Lavell Edwards of course. Cosmo was there and interrupted the broadcast with some unplanned antics on the stage. Apparently the ESPN producers were not thrilled with his actions but it made for some great TV as he stole the show. It was a blast to be there for GameDay and probably a once in a life time thing. Glad we went!
