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. :)

Keep Running and  Never Give up!

Personal:

Married, 4 kids, started running to lose mommy weight and have alone time. Now I run bc of EVERYTHING

strength, sanity, awareness, confidence, attitude, health, peace, life, and Because I CAN

I did it, despite the fact that every part of me was rebelling against it. Going to deliver cookies and then take the dog and kids to the horse park to hike around and play a bit. Yes. They are out of school once again. Parent teacher conf. is the reason this time I guess. Next Friday and the Friday after that?? I don't know the reasons. Maybe its bc they're getting TOO smart? And that musn't happen.You know what really gets me though more than the many days off? Is the fact that they have to have a short day every day before a day off. So essentially they get three good days at school a week and then a dumb short day and then another break. I would rather them go all these days and get out for summer a couple of weeks early. But I don't make the rules. I just complain about them.  BUT this is a running blog. We talk about running. Sorry, I get carried away. HAPPY RUNNING in the beautiful sunny weather!!
