Ran at a pace that is normally easy for me, felt really hard!!
I am not looking forward to my race on Sat. I really don't think I will be able to pull off a 1:40 with my lack of good training the last 3-4 weeks.

I am guessing on the distance.
1 mile warm up 3 hill sprints 1 mile cool down
Decided it was time to be honest with myself... I got on the scale today. I was pretty nervous but it turned out I didn't do as much damage over the holidays as I thought.
My goal is to get to 125 and maintain atleast that weight for the year. Unless pregnancy sneaks up on me. ;) In that case I will just try not to get too LARGE! |

Did not have high expectations for the race. The last few weeks I have been dealing with sickness and the holidays. (Eating way too many treats)
I knew I could atleast run under 2 hours I just didn't expect much beyond that.
I had a fun day and raced okay considering my expectations.
I ran with a friends husband. He wanted to run a little under 2 so I paced him for most of the race. He fell just a little behind me around mile 8 but I could still see him for most of the race.
There were a lot of turn arounds on this course. You would run up a street for a ways and then take a sharp turn and head the same way you had just come. The turn arounds made it difficult to keep the pace but I also llike the turn around for a re-grouping aspect. It was fun to be able to see friends and keep an eye on them that way as well.
Around mile 8 my right knee tighetned up and from that point I had a hard time going faster than 8:30's if I did it would really start to cause me some pain. Honestly don't know if my lungs could have handled over 8:30 at that point anyway so it was fine.
I really had such a fun day so I consider this race a success. And for that matter we should all consider any raca a success, just for the mere fact we are participating.
Things I learned... If I want to be faster I really need to do my own training. I had fun running with some new people in my area but I really need to step it up a notch if I want to improve.

Upper body weights with husband last night. He worked long hours yesterday. He got home around 9 and we went in the garage to "pump some iron!" It was really fun to workout and chat together. I let him lead the workout.
Blessing: Being a stay at home.. as monotonous as it may be some times I love to be with my kids. My husband and I spoke in church on Sunday on how to be an Eternal Family. It has been nice to ponder and think about those reminders this week. |

Went to the gym. I have a trial membership this week. Not really sure if I want to stay.
20 min Elliptical
10 min row machine (this was really fun I want to get one for home)
lower body weights
Ran one mile
lower body toning
It was nice to do a little something different but I kind of did feel like a fish out of water. It took some bribing to get my 2 year old to stay at the day care. He thought when I said we were going to the gym he would be working out with me. He even brought his own towel. He works out with mom and dad at home so I am sure he figured that's what he would be doing when I said we were going to the gym. I don't know if the hassle of getting to the gym with a two yr old is worth it when I have gym equiptment at home, which I do use regularly. HMMM?
Blessing.... Knowing there is a God. Life would seem pretty meaningless and hard with out him. |

Hubby and I worked out together again. We laughed a lot at how cute our kids are and the things they say.We got caught up in what is going on in life. Really had a lot of fun.
Blessing: Books.. I am reading a new book right now. "Dear John" a bit cheesy but still fun to read. Tatum Channing is on the cover so really I just like to hold him while I read. :)
Any suggestions for goods reads that I can learn something from?

Not all my miles were easy but I don't like to break them up. LAZY!
Ran 6 at 6 AM with one group of ladies. It was a super hilly run. We ran a hill called "Masters". It is well known around here for being super tuff!
Dropped my kids off at school and ran with another friend for 3 miles. She is just getting back into running. Give her a couple of weeks and I won't be able to keep up with her. Her husband watched my 2 year old .
Blessing: Rain... We are getting a lot of it here. Today I am home in comfy socks and comfy sweats, I think my two year old and I are going to crawl back in bed and watch a movie. LOVIN IT! |

My alarm didn't go off this morning!! ARGH! I woke up at 7 AM naturally, it felt so wonderful!! YEAH!
I don't think I am going to be able to fit in a workout today.
We have a couple of families coming over tonight for a pizza party. New friends from church. I am a little nervous to introduce them to the way we eat.
Menu..
Pizza made on whole wheat pitas with turkey pepperoni low fat cheese and loads of veggies...or BBQ Chx pizza on pitas.
Veges and Hummus
Lots of Berries.
I am going to make cookies to make up for the fact that our pizza is probably much different then they are expecting.
Wish me luck!!!
Blessing: Costco Boxes....They saved my son from getting drenched today. We went to Costco and when we came out it was pouring. He had fought me getting his jacket on and he won.. so he had no jacket. I emptied our groceries from the box and put it over his head. He LOVED it . We were laughing and running our way to the car. |

3 x 800 done at a 6:45 pace. 400 recovery in between each. Warm up 1 mile cool down the rest of my mileage.
Wanted to run on the track but it is always locked. Did it around my circle. Which is a little difficult with the hills and the cars. Want that time to get down to around 6:30 for now and faster later.
Blessing: Pottery Barn Outlet... There is one 15 min. from my house!!! I am going to check it out today. I am ready to spend some moola so they better have some good stuff! |

Stomach fetl off today and weight was so horrible I am not even going to post it. I don't know what is going on. I have been doing weights 4x a week and things are getting tighter so hopefully the weight gain is just muscle.

Ran with Lisa and Jaylene today. I am a bit faster than both of them so they usually send me ahead and give me extra distances to run and then I am suppose to lap them. They think they are my coach. :) Lisa dreamt last night that I didn't want to run with them but I wasn't sure how to break the news so I gave them each $50.
Ran "Masters". It is a steep hill that is about half as long as "Lincoln"(3/4 vs. 1.5) but even more steep.
Feels good to get to the top where I usually take a break to keep from barfing and wait for the others.
Don't know AP.
Blessing: My Young Woman's calling.. It keeps me organized. I am the secretary and I have to say I have never been more used in a Secretary position. I love it. |

Blessing: New Improved Athletic Supporters.... Okay so I know this is a little weird but I went to get my son one today at the sporting good store and the ones I remember my brothers wearing were very "strappy" and did not look so comfortable. I was thinking of how I would talk my 8 yr. old into one of these. Much to my delight and surprise they make regular brief boxers that you just fit a cup inside!!!! I am sure you all knew this but it was news to me. |

So here it is.... I am EXPECTING my 4th child. I am 11 weeks and due in November. I have been suffering through the last 5 weeks trying to run but I am not doing so well. I am nauseous 90% of my life right now. I can not drag myself out of bed to run in the mornings and when I run at night I have heartburn like crazy. When I do run my pace is dog slow and feels almost pointless to even keep trying.
It is killing me seeing everyone else train and get ready for spring and summer races. I am Jealous. I know it is stupid to be Jealous but November is feeling like and eternity away.
So all you mom's out there... HELP!
What do I do?
I am super excited to have this baby and finish our family but it is hard to adjust to a new life. |

On TM. Then lower body weights.
I read a few articles on Runners world.com that helped me to not feel so wimpy. I think the thing that got me thinking the most is that "when you get pregnant your running changes over-night!" I for sure feel that way and it helps to know others do to.
Blessing: The Internet.... I find so much helpful info there. |

Now that I have changed my relationship and attitude with running I am not so frustrated I can not run like I could before I was pregnant.

"Wonder of wonders, miracle of miracles!!!"
I was so ready to give up last week on running. I felt horrible all week and I started feeling like it was not worth the effort.
I felt super good on Saturday and Sunday so I thought I would give my old running group a shot this morning. I felt so good!!! The best I have felt in weeks. We ran 5.5 and I kept up pretty well. I ran with Lisa most of the time. She hung back with me up the hills.
I'M BACK!

My knee really started bugging me around 4. Probably because I went 7 yesterday. I felt pretty good though. Ran with Ana my pregnant friend who is 2 weeks ahead of me. It is always fun to chat with her since we are going through the same thing.
I decided to post my weight today only because I am proud of how well I have done up to 15 weeks of pregnancy. It will probably be the last time I will post it for atleast a year!! |

Gorgeous morning!!! Ran with Ana. Felt ok. I had to take a few walking breaks. I had side cramping. I think it was a ligament. Anyways, stopped when it hurt and ran when it didn't.
We ran past a special needs teenager and he told us that we were both pretty. So Sweet!
I am past the yucky sick stage (cross my fingers)!!!
Just happy to run this morning.
Packing for the beach now, we are spending the day at Huntington Beach. Can't wait!!!!

Ran 1 walked 4. Just couldn't get my body to do what my mind kept telling it. Still happy to get out and get some sort of exercise.
Went to the DR. yesterday and everything looks great from my ultrasound. I always like to get past that too know everything is developing properly. I also had some extra blood work done for Downs Syndrome and a few other things and all came back negative. Feeling very blessed.
I gained 6 lbs. at this appt. trying not to freak out since my total weight gain for 20 weeks is 8 lbs. Still I don't like that 6 lbs. is all from one month. My Dr. was happy I caught up a little though.
I bought the cutest pair of silver shoes for my new baby girl yesterday. SO CUTE!!!!
Two BBQ's and swim party to go to today. Gonna be busy fun! |

PM workout with my husband. It wasn't pretty but I did it. I had to get off the treadmill like 3 times for potty breaks. It took me forever to warm up and every time I tried to run I would start cramping. Still better than nothing I guess.

Also did weights.

I was telling my husband last night how frustrated and overwhelmed I feel about not being able to keep up with all my responsibilites. He politely laughed and reminded me that I am 7 months pregnant and that I am expecting too much of myself. Today the messes in my house haven't bothered me quite so much. Every time I walk by something on the floor that I can't bend over too pick up I remind myself that I am 7 months pregnant and it is okay. |

Went to the Dr. I am still at a 2 and 70% like I have been for my last two appts. This pregnancy is not at all following the same pattern as my other 3. By this point all of my other children would have been born. I am trying to just be patient and realize my body knows when it is time. I don't want to force anything but I sure hope she comes SOON!!!
If anyone has any secrets that truly work I would love to hear them.
39 weeks.
My Insurance/Dr. will not induce until I am 41 weeks. Please pray for me that I don't have to wait 2 more weeks. |

I am no longer pregnant!!! Our baby was born last Sunday on the 14th. It was a bit of a scary delivery which I will write details later but all turned out well and we are doing great. Dad and the other kids are at church and it is so nice to have some piece and quiet. These moments are going to be few for the next several years.
Her name is Emmie Britta Holmes and she was 7 lbs. 8 oz. and 20 in.
Physically I feel really good just tired and emotional. Overall I really do feel great. I am looking forward to being active again but, I am going to give myself atleast 4 weeks if not 6. This is probably the perfect time of year to not rush back into exercise. |

1st postpartum workout. My baby is a 2 weeks and 1 day. I probably should wait atleast a week longer but I just wanted to move a little I need the endorphins for my mood. I took it really easy.

Really wanted to run alone today and be kid free for a few minutes but when my 9 yr. old asked me if he could come I couldn't turn him down. We had fun together and he did really good.
I got home two min. late on my husbands watch and 3 min. early on mine and we got in a fight over it. LOL! Obviously we are under a little more stress with a new baby in the house.
AP 9:55 Felt really good

My plan for the next two weeks is to up my weekly runs just by .25 each day and on the week end double what I do in one day. So Sat. I will run 2.5.
I really hope by adding on slowly I will be able to move back into running without injury. Plus I am trying not to put expectations on myself that will be to hard to achieve with a new born.

I love to exercise!! |
