I started running in May of 2006 while losing 85 lbs after my youngest was born.  I have 6 fantastic kids, 3 girls and 3 boys and a wonderful husband.  My oldest is in college and my baby is in pre-school. (Six kids in 5 schools ;)

I met Michelle at the Spanish Fork Reservoir at 6:30 this morning. It was SO cold!!! I wimped out and just walked in the water and talked to Michelle while she ran with her belt. It was SO fun to chat and disturb the fishermen ;) They were probably thinking, "I come out here so early to get AWAY from chatty women!" Anyway- it was super fun and I am still COLD, even after my run.

The run felt fine except that I have two emergency potty stops :( I called it quits after my second one at a local elementary school. I didn't want to chance an accident :p

Have a GREAT day!

Maybe you should take a pole along and get breakfast while you work out. (or hook worms through Michelle's toes).
