The last week of my life has been dedicated to putting my 2013 Hood to Coast application together! I am excited and nervous all at the same time. It is going to be a long wait until April 17th when the teams are announced. I had so much fun making this video and boy did I learn a lot about how to make videos. I don't think I have laughed so much in all my life! My son really wanted to be a part of my application and I think his contributions to my application are priceless!
I am so thankful to my friend Caroline who helped me get my application together. She was one of the lucky, well I should say, most deserving runners who was selected last year and she had the time of her life. She spent so much of her time this past week answering my texts and offering her ideas and opinions on the final details of my application. Had I not made the decision to start this blog, I would have probably never met this wonderful woman who lives right around the corner from me.
Running Hood to Coast is a once in a lifetime experience and it would be a dream come true for me so I hope I am able to experience it this year. This would be the ultimate vacation for me. Running and having a great time with others who share the same passion as I do? Who could ask for more. I will be patiently waiting to hear back from Nuun and I hope it is good news! Wish me luck and here is my application. I hope you enjoy it!
Did you submit an application to run Hood to Coast this year?
Great video, love the Caroline intro and your son popping in and out of it. Good luck! I wish I could have applied since I am not doing it with my Team Beef this year, but I can't swing it!
ReplyDeleteYes, I think Caroline and my son are the best part of the application. I am so thankful to her and my son is just a goof ball and fit right in.
DeleteGreat video!!! Good luck...I'll keep my fingers crossed for you!!
ReplyDeleteThank You Nancy!
DeleteLOVE your video - love your son's cameos! Haha! I'm really sad I didn't get my application together, as I had full intentions but that just means it wasn't in the cards for me this year. Looking forward to it one day in the future. Cant wait to hear about your response - I know you'll get it!
ReplyDeleteThank You Megan. I was going to ask you if had submitted your application. You would be a great candidate but maybe next year. I hope they pick me too!
DeleteThat was fun to watch! Love your son with the swag! Good luck!
ReplyDeleteThank You Jennifer. It was really hard to keep a straight face but after 30 takes I finally was able to do it!
DeleteGreat video!! Love the Caroline intro. Hope that we are both able to get in this year. Good Luck to you!!

DeleteGood luck to you Sandy! Your son was definitely a good addition to your video application. I LOLed!
ReplyDeleteThank you Madison! He really wanted to be a part of my application and since he is my biggest fan I could not refuse his offer. I think we found the perfect role for him which is a true representation of his personality.
DeleteI sure hope you get in!!!!!!! Your son is hilarious! I could not have done with with a straight face like you did !!!! You had a good application I mean the beginning I have to mute the rest is great...!!!
ReplyDeleteI think that is why I look so serious in my video because if I even smiled the slightest bit, we would burst out laughing for five minutes. That kid is something else and we love your part. We like to watch it to see your part. You have the greatest personality and we just love the Canada shirt!
Deletebest of luck sweet friend!
ReplyDeleteGood luck! You did a great job with your video. I especially love the end.

Thank You Christy! I had to take passports pictures that day otherwise my hair would have been up! You are so sweet to give me all of those nice compliments :) My son is just a little comedian and he wanted to be a part of this so bad. We had a blast together!!
