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 ;)

2 hours of biking, about ;) I met Michelle at 5am to ride bikes while she walked and ran. It was SO cold. 35 degrees where we started and 31 degrees on parts of the route. a dog tried to eat us and there was almost "traffic" with all the walkers out. As always, it was SO great to spend 0'dark hundred, or any time of day, with Michelle.

My eating has been out of control for the last 3 days. Usually I have one bad day during the weekend, but this week I had three :( I am going to have to get a grip today. At least the chex mix and the coconut cream pie are gone ;D I am not left with much that tempts me.

I will do some yoga once the boys are off to school. I am a solid frozen block right now. I had hoped the shower would thaw me, but no such luck. I may be colder :(

65 minutes of yoga. Dr appt at noon. I really feel like I need to start running again, like 1 mile a day. Brady is going to have to give me a really good reason for me to take another week off. If I sound like a poop, it's because I have turned into one :p I am officially rebellious and irritated. The only thing that can sooth me at this point is Ben & Jerry or a run. I have lost my logic and reasoning. I am swirling into a pit of perpetually "pissed off!"

I am not as bad as I sound. I have been watching the Simpson's Halloween specials with Kang and Kodos and the '96 presidential election. I am losing my marbles..... ;D

Have a GREAT day! I am off to shower, do laundry and other wise have a very regular day.

*** Dr report. It was the best of times, it was the not so best of times ;) I got GREAT news and not so great news. The “not so great” was that it will probably be 2 weeks before I can run again :p He said I could run, but if I want to fully recover, I should just wait a bit longer. The good news is that all of the self massage is really helping and making a big difference. He could tell and was pleased that I took on self beatings 3 times a day :D One thing that it did is, that as parts have healed/are healing, other injuries are surfacing. He beat the crud out of my right top quad into my hip flexor. The other hip injuries were masking this one. I can really tell that it was in bad shape as I was almost instantly nauseated after he finished. Deep tissue really makes me sick. Anyway, he gave me some hip strengthening exercises to do and another quad stretch and MORE self massage. I am actually REALLY happy because I am getting better and there is REAL light at the end of my silly little tunnel!

An hour of a GREAT walk with Michelle :) She is SUCH a great friend :) I am having the hardest time getting out and NOT RUNNING. Everything is NOT RUNNING to me. I am going to go bike, fine, but NOT RUNNING. Elliptical is cool, but NOT RUNNING. I made Michelle promise to not let me run. Just a few more weeks. I also talked to Josse today and she is going to give me a lesson on self beatings ;) I am going to order a scraping tool today. Now I will be able to bruise myself ;)

I am going to get changed from work and do an hour of yoga.
