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.

With Jackie. Slept two hours last night. I couldn't stop coughing long enough to fall asleep. Went and slept on the couch so my husband could atleast sleep. 

SUPER SLOW!

Tempo this morning. I am getting better at running by feel. Didn't pay attention to watch till last mile. I felt strong for the first 5 and had to think about the last mile. 

I am really pleased with how this workout went. Expectation was low going into the workout because I have been sick. Exceeded my expectation.

Splits 6:55, 6:55, 6:48, 6:55, 7:00, 7:01

Wish 3rd split was 6:55 then maybe my last two could have been under 7 too. 

My route is completely flat except for a .15 up and then .15 down.

Running a down hill half on June 1st. Would love to break 1:30 hoping it won't be too difficult to do.

Ran long with Jackie and Chris... Chris is Jackie's future Bro in Law... he is deaf so it is always fun to brush up on my minimal knowledge of sign and learn new signs. He is super patient.. I am sure signing with me is like talking to a baby. 

I was tired this morning. Legs were heavy. Dealing with a minor pain in my hip staying on top of it to make sure it doesn't turn major.
