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 ;)

Slow day.  The air felt so "soft" outside.  It was a really nice and slow day.  It is snowing right now as I am writing this.  Snow, snow, go away, come again... IN THE MOUNTAINS!!!

Great run this morning! I have you to thank for doing 5 miles, I needed to up my mileage and your goal was the kick in the pants I needed! I just signed up for Painters! It is going to be so much fun! Have a happy wintery day ( us California girls need to fake it!)

Nice 5 miler. You're off to a good start for the week. It was blowing fierce wind when I ran. It's snowing here too and the roof on my garage is leaking, ugghh!!! My poor hubby worked so hard to stop the leak and put up lights on Sat. I don't have the heart to tell him some of the ligts are blown off (er, down). O WELL, but at least he's happy that there's snow for skiing.

Thanks my friends! I am not very pleased about the snow :) I am trying to pretend I love it! I always used to love it before I decided I was a runner! I'll probably LOVE it!!1 :D

Marion... good run even when you don't like the snow :) and BTW love the new picture and hair color. It really suits you.
