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 ;)

are you lonely? or enjoying the quiet? Nice 3 miles, sorry your knee was bugging at the end but I think it will keep getting stronger and stronger as you go and take it easy.

I will not be missing Onion Days again this year. Glad to see you are swimming! That really takes discipline to get to the pool.

Lenadra- They are home now, so the quite was very short lived :) I went shopping for prizes for drawings for my meeting tonight :) FUN! Are you coming for Onion days???

Luz- This is a really fun time :) Jorge should bring the kids and come for breakfast :) I can't wait to see you :D

Sorry about the stinky knees! Keep rolling and stretching...it'll get there!

From LuzyLew on Wed, Aug 26, 2009 at 18:24:05 from 208.187.197.42

I'm all signed up for the Onion Days 10K. Let me know my food assignement/address for the afterparty, etc!

From LuzyLew on Wed, Aug 26, 2009 at 18:27:55 from 208.187.197.42

Also--I just got a referral to a massage therapist, who came to my house and who massaged the you-know-what out of my glutes/piriformis/hips. I feel 100 years younger. If you know anyone who needs a therapist who is not afraid to knead your fanny....Let me know. I seriously think she just healed all my injuries from the last 3 years. I'll know for sure tommorrow when I try to run, but man--she was an anatomy queen. I can't believe it. And to celebrate, I signed up for the 10K!

From LuzyLew on Wed, Aug 26, 2009 at 18:29:34 from 208.187.197.42

Sorry, that sounded crazy. I'm just so happy to be pain free for the first time in like 4 days...

From marion on Wed, Aug 26, 2009 at 22:28:36 from 71.213.121.129

Luz, you have forgotten who's blog you are posting on! From one tight end to another, a good and fearless MT is worth their weight in gold. Maybe I need to give her a call :)

From Smooth on Wed, Aug 26, 2009 at 23:46:57 from 71.36.82.218

Hey Marion, I might sign up for the Onions Day. Hubby said we had no plan as of now.

Luz, I want the name of that MT!

Weird having a house to yourself! I'd say you should bust out the 80s music and rock it out! LMFAO at the post from yesterday about the hair clog and how daddy almost 'barthed' hahaha. That's hilarious :)

From LuzyLew on Thu, Aug 27, 2009 at 12:03:08 from 208.187.197.42

She did a really great job on my quads, hamstrings, piriformis/glues. Truly, a miracle--she undid every knot in my lower back with her elbow. Not a comfy massage, but not totally painful either. 100% worth it. I love her. Her name is Natalee Hickman, she's from Colorado, and graduated from the Utah School of Massage Therapy in Lindon. Her number is (719)232-6981. She'll even come to your house! I booked her for post SGM already!

Thanks Luz, I'm jotting it down on my race calendar. I assume she lives locally now? That's a different area code.

From LuzyLew on Thu, Aug 27, 2009 at 12:13:44 from 208.187.197.42

She's in Provo, but she's from Colorado (so that's where her number is from).
