Can you say FORTY QUARTS of homemade applesauce?
I am feeling much better :D My weight is holding steady, which is very normal for me. I lose over about a week and then hold for 2-3, then lose again. I have been holding for a few weeks, so hopefully I'll be ready to start dropping again soon.
This week, I am going to play my mileage by ear. I will plan for 5 a day with 10-12 for saturday. We will see how it goes. Lately all plans have been shot down, so flexibility is key!
I am off for another church adventure with the kids! Whoo Hoo! I get to sing a duet today, which should be fun :) I love to sing with Shanelle. She has the most BEAUTIFUL voice :) | Comments(6) |

OK- how does that saying go- you can't judge a book by it's cover? Well, you can't judge a run by the first mile :) Boy that last mile felt GREAT!! Maybe the training is working? ;) I broke that STUPID 1 hour mark for my five miles! Whoo Hoo!!! Anyway- I slept in and ran after school. This is not great for a few reasons. #1 my neuromas start to hurt a lot earlier, later in the day! #2 Now I have to shower again. #3 It is just WAY easier to get the run in first thing!
I hope everyone had a great day. I hope to check out your blogs in a bit!
XOXOXOXO!!! |

| | Crazy weird run today :0 Kim and I ran up Payson Canyon to the 2.5 mile mark, then ran down until David and my brother, Dan, and kids, picked me up and we went up to the Gratto. We hiked up there, it's a very pretty and EASY hike for kids. Then we hiked down. I ran up the canyon a bit more and then back to the car and then we drove back down. They dumped me off about a mile and a half from home and I ran it in. Like I said, crazy weird ;) I do have a head cold at the moment. It hit all of a sudden at 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon. I am really hoping that it doen't get any worse. I am going to make sure to get plenty of fluids, rest and oranges ;) I don't feel bad, except a mild headache from the congestion. I am somewhat irritated by the whole thing, but I am not going to stress over it at all :D Life is good and I ran 5.5 miles today :)

THANK YOU MICHELLE!!!! The most amazing Michelle came and helped me through my 4 mile tempo run today. The goal was to be in the 10 to 10:30 range for 4 miles. Due to some funky laps, the splits don't show it exactly, but MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!!! :) We ran my normal route, an out and back, with a mile loop around my block at the end for a cool down. The first mile was also a warm up, with a stretch at .33. It was a hard run, I wanted to stop a few times but I didn't want to die. :D By the way, Michelle, your hair is DARLING!!! I love the color and the length! WOW!!! Hot speedy Mama!!! I still have the STUPID head cold, but no fever or cough :) Hopefully I will get over it quickly. I am going to go get some tea after my shower this morning. I don't know if tea really helps, but it makes me feel better ;D
Have a GREAT day everybody and an amazing PARTY weekend!
