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.

UM...... I felt like I had never run a day in my life this morning. I ran real easy the first mile and then wanted to do a marathon pace mile just to feel the speed I am planning on running. After the marathon pace mile I almost passed out and I had to sit down. Then ran the last mile real easy home. I felt light headed and nausea the whole time.

My asthma has been bad this week so maybe my brain just isn't getting enough oxygen.

Not a really good feeling just 4 days before I am going to run a marathon.

I keep looking at my splits and feel a bit puzzled as to why those miles made me sick. WHATEVER!

Blessing.. The Temple, I am going tonight I am really looking forward to it. I love it there!!!

Read with Caution you might get jealous.... So I ran 2 miles on the sand today, barefoot. It felt so good. Close to the water so the sand was  a bit more firm. After wards I took my ice bath in the Ocean! It was beautiful. The water was not as chilly as it was last week but I think it still did the job.

Blessing... 2 year old hugs. My two year old gives the best hugs, the kind when he holds on so tight it squishes your face.
