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 ;)

Had to work this morning, so I am late posting :)

Alright, I am back and feel fine!  Great run this morning!  Woo HOOO!!!  My calves tried to whine, but I "relaxed" them, and they DID! 

30:43 min,  12:17/mi  total average,  7:25/mi  best pace, Laps; 12:08  (.38mi), 11:59   (.43 mi), 10:47  (.45 mi), 9:19    (.6 mi), 11:18   401.6 feet ;)

Alright, so I am a little OCD with the lap button, but hey- I find the information very informative :)

The OCD is good for running!!! I need to post more stats, a great way to measure our improvement. Way to go on the weekend. BRAVO for us!!! That's pretty good when you had your mother-in-law over too! Double Bravo!!!

Thank you, thank you very much! I am glad to see my OCD is good for something ;) I am so glad we all had great weekends! I was down 5# from last monday. (BUT (and this is a BIG butt) last mon was HORRIBLE- I way over did the whole "I ran 10 miles, I must reward myself with food" thing)

Oh do I UNDERSTAND!! The longer my run is the more I feel I deserve a reward, I am really trying to figure out the balance, it is tough, we do have to treat ourselves right after a big run, but I haven't figured out how to do it and not gain weight. Anyway, good for you, a good weekend and down 5!!!!! I am down 4 from Monday and HOLDING!! (so far)
