Short-Term Running Goals:

Maybe run a few more marathons?? Stay healthy, motivated and consistent.  Races are fun, but unlike the hokey pokey, its not what its all about for me.  Its about health, sanity and feeling great about myself bc I can call myself a runner. :)

So I've been going on a few bike rides but haven't run in like ten years so I'm totally out of shape. I had to wake up early today to go register Senekah for school and when we got there we waited in a long line to be told that we needed to register online before they can help us but that we can go to the computer lab to do that. So we went to the computer lab and when we got there, they didn't have the system up and running and said it won't be until 9. So I left and needless to say I was slightly ornery about the whole thing. And by slightly I mean, a lot. So I called Scott to vent and he said "i'm going on a run, come with me" and he only runs a mile or two every day so I decided I could do that. It felt great. I was happy I went. Hopefully my mood can chill now.

I've been beyond an angry elf the last few days. I'm like satan elf. Scott and the boys left backpacking this morning at 5 am and I was going to go run then but I was way too out of it. So I went back to bed and went later. It was hot but i didn't care. It felt good to me. My ipod wasn't charged bc the boys have been pretending it's an apple watch and then they don't charge it..grrrrrr. So I used pandora on my phone. I put on Led Zeppelin radio and was running to Communication Breakdown and at one point I ran past a construction worker's truck that reeked of weed and I thought to myself "wait..am I in 1991?" but I wasn't. I ran home to "Look mommy, there's an airplane up in the sky" Maybe I should run to pandora more often. Kind of fun to see what will come up next that you're not expecting. And haven't heard in years. Now Im going to help Heidi move for a few hours. But NOT bc Steph told me to!! grrrrrrr

Woke up to a quiet house again today. Heaven. Took my time getting up and then went on a short, very hot run. Cranked my music and enjoyed knowing that I get to come back home to an empty house with silence. I need to cook bc we have our trek kids coming over tonight but I'm enjoying that I get to cook with no one saying "mom..mom..mom..watch this...mom..mom..l'm hungry...mom..mom..mom" I miss them all but I really needed this time. Summer has been fun but I don't think I've really been alone for 2.5 months and then I wonder why I'm so mean all the time. blah..this is a running blog not my personal journal. sorry. Run was good.

Ran around the hood and down the hill on Highland and back up then home. It felt good. I listened to Imagine Dragons radio on pandora. LOVE the song "I bet my life" and that came on when I was running back up so that was happy. 
I did the color run but I didn't "run" it bc of who I was with. It was mostly a fast walk/run to the light pole kind of thing. So I'm not logging it as running miles. It was fun though. My kids would love it. Anyway. that is that.
