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 ;)

800 M swim

Will bike tonight.  Wanted to run this morning, but due to an unexpected funeral, I had to be at work by 7:30 :(   Maybe I will go try Turbo Jam.  I have had them for a while but have not had a moment to try it.  I am going to do that right now :)  FUN!

push-ups and sit-ups later today too :)

Booty Jam was AWESOME!!!  Yes, I did a workout called Booty Jam!  I asked David if my bum looked perkier and he said YES!! :)  Tomorrow I will try another of the Turbo Jam family.  I am sure I looked like a FOOL, so I will stick with the videos and my family room.  There was one girl on there who has 7 children.  Geeze, to even look 1/2 that good would be SO COOL!
***4 miles this evening :)  LOVED it!  I am guessing that my running legs are back!  It has taken me a lot longer to recover from the marathon that I thought it would.  My goal for tonights run was to run 12mm after the warm up.  That worked out great.  The last mile, I just figured that I felt great, so just go with it.  It also helped that one of my 17 year olds friends was running on the other side of the street.  She was trying to smoke me.  I kept right on her heels until finally, after about 3/4 of a mile, I OLD SPICED HER!!!  She even cut through the park, and I still beat her.  Life is good!  I am complete!!!

SMOOTH! There is no way I would subject anyone to that horror! Picture a seizure, grand mal, and then throw in a tick. That's me doing Booty Jam ;) Actually, I have sore muscles in my legs that have never been sore before. I didn't know that running did not tick off EVERY muscle in my legs ;)

From Smooth on Thu, Jul 23, 2009 at 17:42:26 from 71.36.65.165

Goodness, that's funny! Not the sore muscles; but the visual of grand mal w/ a tick! :D

You have sore muscles means you HAVE muscles! That's good sore! And may be the booty-jammy-muscles will come in handy when running! :-)
