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 ;)

I didn't take a watch or gamin.  I ran just by feel.  I am going to try to do this 3 days week.  It caused a little anxiety ;)  It was 48 degrees outside, LOVE LOVE LOVE it!

I had yet another tummy ache this morning, so I ran 1 mile loops around my house.  I ended up being OK.  Maybe it was the apples, raw carrots and cauliflower yesterday ;D  Anyway, I felt really sluggish.  I ran 2 miles one direction and then switched and went the other way.

I have a time trial tomorrow.  I was going to run, but was talking to Michelle and she sugested that I run less.  I have thought about it, and I am going to skip it all together.  I did an hour of yoga this morning.  I'll do more tonight.  I want all of the parts happy for the time trial.

This recovery thing has me SO paranoid that I am really second guessing myself.  This month, I am going to stick with 24-30 miles.  I have decided to forgo the 1/2 in Riverton this year.  I want to come back SO slow that there is no chance of ruining the fall marathon.  Well, 87% of a chance.  I have recommitted myself to a better yoga practice.  Man, life is too complicated some times :)

I woke up at 7 and had a chocolate banana smoothie.  I went to Orem for a meeting and then rushed back to meet Michelle for the time trial.  We did a short warm up and stretch and then rant the onion days 5k route backwards.  The first mile was ok.  Mile two was tough and mile three was a bugger :p  This was the closest to throwing up that I have ever come :)  We ran home and that was HARD.  I am hoping to get another mile in today.

Oh, this is a BIG pr for me :)  I was shooting for a sub 29.  I am very excited about it.  It is also my first 8 mm mile in a "race."

Late run.  48 degrees :)  The first 2 miles were tough.  I wanted to be done.  My legs have not been sore, just achy.  They were tired for the run.  the last two miles felt good.  I averaged a 12:05.  I walked twice, once down a steep hill.  I walked this backwards as to not aggravate my itb.  The second time my mp3 stopped playing and I had to figure out how to get it going again.
