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 ;)

Hola!  These two little miles are going to really spoil me :)  I am loving just being gone for a little bit :)  No pain at all today :)  I am pretty excited to try three miles next week :)  OH and I did 7 MAN push ups in a row last night with 5 more in the next two sets :D (thirty something all together with the girls in there)

I'm glad you're enjoying the 2 miles. They must be really cute.

Great job with the push ups. I've got to get back into doing that kind of thing.

MAN PUSH UPS????? Holy cow, can you fully extend your arms and go all the way down? Even after 6 weeks of bootcamp, I can't do that. I am in awe. Glad you are feeling good! Have a great weekend Marion.

Yes Leslie :) I think the sit ups are helping with them too. It took me forever to do one, then FOREVER to do more than 3 or three. but suddenly, I can do more :) HALLELUJAH!!!

I totally hear you on the getting spolied thing, it's so funny. I've slept in the past couple days and it's spoiling me! I don't know if I'll be able to force myself to wake up after Hobble Creek is over :) I'm so glad you didn't have pain today! You'll be rocking the 3 miles next week!

Good job Marion! You rock. Enjoy your miles - whatever they are.

Very nice Marion!!!

You will be banging out those pushups and miles in no time!!

Do you do the man-pushups on your toes or do you go on your knees? I find the man pushups to be nearly impossible.

From marion on Fri, Aug 21, 2009 at 23:14:37 from 71.213.121.129

Oh April- toes=MAN, knees=girl... I have never been so excited to be like a man :)
