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 ;)

Alright, y'all know that I am supposed to cross train on Mondays, well....  I just HAD to run today.  It was 56 degrees and BEAUTIFUL!!!  The clincher was when I read that it was going to rain on Wednesday and Thursday :(  I figured that I would run today and Tuesday and then cross train on Wed & Thurs :)  Friday and Saturday are supposed to be AMAZING too :)  I love it when Spring acts like Spring :)  I wore shorts and one of my new sleeveless shirts :)  It is orange :)

Now about this WONDERFUL run on the most AMAZING day :)  Well, I think I will let the splits speak for themselves ;D  Oh and when did wind go from being the DEVIL to my very best friend??? xoxoxoxoxo
