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.

On my own this morning. I used to run alone all the time but since moving to Corona and finding great running partners I haven't in a long time. Getting out of bed is harder when there is no one watiting for you but I didn't mind the actual run.

2x4 miles start at MP and drop to HMP

I again felt like I was going to throw up most of the run. I am starting to think I need to get in and get my asthma looked at.

First 4: 7:30, 7:24, 7:13, 7:17

Second 4: 7:20, 7:30, 7:25, 7:14

Blessing: Mace.... holding that little black bottle in my hand helps my husband to "sort of" feel ok about me running alone.

Felt good. Ran alone. I like to run alone except for the fact that my husband is nervous I won't make it home so then I am nervous and looking over my shoulder every 10 seconds. Only scary thing I ran into today was a coyote. He was affraid of me.

Blessing: My brother and his family are coming today to visit for a week. So excited!!!! I love my brothers!

Ran with Jackie and Ana. Parked a car in Anaheim and ran Green River to the Santa Ana river bed and along that trail. It was a nice run.

It felt hard between miles 12-15 for no particular reason or another.
