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 ;)

60 minutes bike ride with the boys- Will and Mac in the trailer and David on his bike.  My right foot is really bothering me :(

David yelled, "Hey, watch this." and proceeded to ride down the ampatheater steps.... head over heals!  He turfed it BIG TIME!!!  Fortunately he only got a few bumps and scrapes.  He should have said, "Hey watch this... NO BRAINS!!!"

Sorry about your foot, I hope it gets feeling better. Sounds like you had a fun ride with your boys... maybe you should leave the husband home next time LOL... Just kidding, good thing he is OK.

HAHAHAHA that made me smile! :-D. Bike rides truly are nature's gift. Almost as good as the long runs :-D.

Aren't males just amazing?? No brains, yet look what they can do!

I've LOVED riding my bike this week too...its a nice change, especially when you're injured. Hope the foot feels better tomorrow for your 18!!

I am going to dog the 18 miler. I just chatted with Coach Maurine and I have a new plan for NO INJURIES :) I am going to take 2 weeks between my long runs until the marathon. I really want to do it and NOT GET HURT! :)
