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.

I set my alarm but did not get up this morning. Instead I worked out with my husband after the kids where in bed. It is always nice to workout together.

PM run again. Got dinner on the table and left my family to eat so I could run in the daylight. Ran down to the pier and back. It took me 15:24 to run to the pier and 14:02 to run back.

I love to play running games with myself. When I saw the time at my turn around point I challenged myself to beat it.

Last mile 7:25

Blessing: Claritin D... my allergies are a killer right now but that drug completly wipes them out.

Hurried and jumped on the treadmill while my sick child is sleeping.

I took my kids to San Diego yesterday to visit some friends and go to the beach. On the way home my 2 year old started throwing up all over in his car seat. SO SAD! I still had about an hour till we got home so I stopped and cleaned him up at a Carls JR. As soon as we started on the road again he puked again. I ended up not stopping to clean him up mostly becasuse I had nothing else left to clean him up with. He puked again to so I just hurried home as safely as possible.

Incline 1.5

AP 9:10

Very easy along the beach with a cute girl from my ward. Had a lot of fun chatting.

Blessing:  Saturdays... Today we are packing and going through the garage to get ready for our move to our new home at the end of October.
