My Favorite Quote-   "When you get into a tight place and everything goes against you, till it seems as though you could not hold on a minute longer, never give up then, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn." -Harriet Beecher Stowe

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 ;)

This was supposed to be a tempo run at about 10:30 average.  I was not feeling it at all.  I am not sure if it was that this 3 mile stretch is totally flat or I am just lame or BOTH?  Aside from what I had envisioned, the run turned out great and if it had been a regular run, I'd be thrilled.  Especially since the first .66 of mile five is a BEAST of an up hill!  LONG and steady up hill.

Have a great day!

Oh wait, I have to tell you about the goose hearding miniture goats.  There is this little farm on my route with a gaggle of geese, they look like canadian to me, peacocks, peahens and miniature goats.  Today the peacock was out by the road :)  Yesterday the little goats were hearding the geese all over the place.  From a distance I thought they were Australian Heelers, but as I got closer I could see that the geese were being rounded up by all of these darling little goats.

Oh cool now that is some animal interaction kodak moments! Good job on your run--even it is not exactly what you wanted!

Sounds like a fun run to me ... how do you beat darling little goats rounding up the geese?

Nice Job!!

Great run. And isn't running a super time for seeing/noticing things you normally wouldn't?
