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 ;)

12:00mm 1 mile on the treadmill to warm up while I was waiting for the girlies to get home from school :)  Stretched, then headed out for 4 miles on the road.  The road run felt REALLY GOOD!  The last lap, I had to stop for a light :p!  It would have been pretty good, because I had to stop for a fair amount of time.  Oh well :)  I am off to stretch.

I ran to Salem today.  There is a good .4 down hill in the first mile, and conversely, a good up hill .4 in the last mile.  I felt tired today. No problems at all with my itb lately.  My little stretching/scraping/rolling routine might be doing the trick.  I'd better get to the stretching.

The BIG news is that before this injury, it was a very rare occurrence to do my 5 in under an hour.  Now, it seems to be a regular thing :D

I met Jennie in Salem for a run at 8.  When I looked at our pace, it was mainly 11:30.  It took us 59 minutes, but we walked a few times.  Sweet Jennie hasn't run 5 in a while, so we took it easy.  I am guessing that we were going a bit faster than 11:30.  Anyway, it was SUPER fun to run with Jennie.  We picked up a stray dog on the run.  It followed us for 3.5 miles, about.  It was running in front of cars and causing all kinds of trouble.  Drivers were not happy.  We mouthed on several occasions that it was not our dog.  It was a cute dog.  I wonder if it's home or been hit by now.....

I got to run with my friend Chrisanne today :)  It was SO fun :)  she had to run her first 10 miler today.  She ran 3 to my house and then I ran her out to the dump and back for 7.  She did GREAT!  I forced some shot blocks down her at her 7 mile mark.  I also made her speed up for the last .2 of the run.  She's awesome.  She's also my son's kindergarten teacher.

Now, this was my first 7 miler since FOREVER!!! :)  It felt great!
