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.

Ran 10 along the beach. I was going to just take it really east today but I couldn't help myself today. I kept finding people in front of me that I just had to pass. Then once I passed them I couldn't slow down for them to pass me and then I would find a new person to leap frog. It was actually quite fun.

I also ran into a woman in my ward who is AWESOME! I have never seen a woman so ripped in my entire life. She is the one I have talked about that is a speedy marathoner with a Olympic time. I ran 2 miles with her. Thank goodness her dog is slow so that I could keep up with her.

Sounds like you had a great run. Remember when I made not such a nice comment about a girl and said, "we have to pass her I know her butt is bigger than ours". Not very nice but we kicked her trash up that hill.

I just bought a gallon of chocolate milk after months of not having but craving it after every long run, it is yummy!! Miss you like crazy!

I overdosed on chocolate milk when I was pregnant with Ashly, I have not had any since the day I gave birth to her! I used to love it, though. And now they are saying how it is the BEST post work out drink. So, you are smart!

Way to go on the run. I still get so jealous when i read "ran along the beach today."
