Personal:

I have 4 kids, 2 boys and 2 girls. 11, 9, 6 and 2. I have been married to my guy for 13 years. He is great and so supportive of my running life. He is also very active, mostly weight training and he has run 2 half marathons as well. He is very fast without training too hard. 1:28 Half Marathon!!! I am working on being able to keep up with him. Someday when are kids are older we look forward to training together.

6x800's today. Wasn't expecting much today. My asthma and allergies are bad right now. Went into the workout telling myself don't look at your watch and just do your best. Was happy with the results. The workout felt harder then last time but I think my times weren't much slower than last time. 

Splits 3:04, 3:04, 3:08, 3:08, 3:08, 3:08

I ran these outside so I would say that is pretty AMAZING how ON I was and I didn't look at my watch!!!

Was shooting for 3:10 so I came in under... I feel accomplished because I wasn't expecting much this morning but then that little voice in the back of my head keeps saying things like "You didn't run fast enough... and that was too hard for you."

I am totally a mental runner. I get in my head and sometime sabotage myself. Working on that!

Off to ice and stretch. My hip wants attention so it is acting up!

Going into my Asthma/Allergy Dr. today!! So HAPPY!

Good luck with the allergies. It's amazing what you can change when you alter your self-talk.
