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.

Look at that self-motivation!! You are awesome!!

Don't forget to stay on top of your asthma meds!!

Nice run. 7:20 is cruising!

From Kelli on Mon, Nov 03, 2008 at 18:54:55

7:20!?!? What is wrong with me???

You are GREAT!!!

See you tomorrow morning, same time and place!

From britta on Mon, Nov 03, 2008 at 19:47:45

just for clarification... is same time 5:25 or 5:30? I am excited to see you tomorrow. I don't know why but it feels like I haven't seen or talked to you forever? It has only been since Sat. Okay, I sound like a stocker!

Cal,

Thanks! It is great to see your miles increasing each week. I hope you continue to heal.

Teena,

You would think after Sat. I would take my meds. Nope still haven't. Tonight I will!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

From Kelli on Mon, Nov 03, 2008 at 20:23:54

We do not have to be there until 5:45, so I think that 5:30 is good---it is close this week, YEAH!!!

I am looking forward to chatting if you can run slow enough for me!! My breathing is struggling in the cold, but maybe your asthma will slow you down enough for me!

TAKE YOUR MEDS EVERY DAY!!!! I know where you live, I am going to come and feed them to you!

I almost brought you some cookies again yesterday, but I did not want to mess with the counting. So I ate them all instead!

From britta on Mon, Nov 03, 2008 at 21:30:30

Okay, 5:30 it is.

Counting is going okay!! I have been eating really good the last few days. I am really good about counting the first half of the day but it seems to hard to count dinner. There are too many ingredients!!! Anyway I feel good about what I have been doing.

Thanks for not messing me up with the cookies. I for sure would have eaten them. I am going to walk away from the computer and take my meds right now!
