My Favorite Quote-   "When you get into a tight place and everything goes against you, till it seems as though you could not hold on a minute longer, never give up then, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn." -Harriet Beecher Stowe

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 ;)

A miracle occurred!  I got myself up this morning and ran at 6:30am!  It was 40 degrees.  Not too bad :)  It is supposed to storm this afternoon, so I figured I'd better get out there.  I am so excited for warmer weather, so the mornings are more bearable :)  I did not take my garmin, but according to the clock, it took about 55-56 minutes.  My joints complained a bit, in the first half mile.  I think they were just mad to be up and running.  the babies!

Ran outside.  The head wind was COLD!  I was really farting around on my run.  One mile from home, I realized that I'd need to hustle the last mile to make it under an hour.  I ran the last mile in 9:56.  I was at 49 minutes at mile 4 :(.  Anyway, I needed a slow day.  Tomorrow should be 7-8 miles.

What a GREAT day!  We started the day with Michelle's sons baptism :)  We had a yummy lunch at Michelle's.  It was so much fun to meet much of their families.  Next I popped into a bay shower then I met KimR for a run.  Was supposed to do only 7, but 8+ worked better :)

I had questioned Michelle and Smooth about a tempo pace for myself.  I think that todays run answered the question for myself.  If I can do 8 miles at 10:38 without much of a problem.....I am going to do the 10mm pace on my Wed tempo's.  I will start this wednesday.
