On a roll!

Alright, managed to drag my tired mommy out of bed again this morning! We did six miles today. I was so nervous. I haven't done that many since I did my last 1/2 in March! I did not want to go but when I texted the other StrollerFit mom at 4:40 to see if she was up and she responded within seconds I knew there was no backing out! We kept it slow and steady and ran almost the entire way! IT MADE MY DAY! I was in such a good mood all day and I know it was because I did what I thought I couldn't do. Watch out! No stoppin' now!

Testing...testing...1-2-3

Okay, little man was totally testing me today!! Ughghgghh! Guess the terrible twos start early? He has found his "yeller" and yelled all day long at me. Wait a minute...who's the parent here? He has started this heart wrenching cry when he doesn't get his way and now has a SERIOUS Elmo addiction. Oh dear, guess I'm in for it!

I must admit though...not sure if it's that he was testing or I was just tired!! I didn't make it for my run on Monday am but I did run today!! Yay!! Did 400 m sprints and went on a 3 mile walk. Shooting for 6 miles on Thursday. A few StrollerFit moms are doing 5 miles tomorrow, but I have StrollerFit and Restore the Core on Wednesdays and that's just too much!

Going to bed early tonight, hoping for a more peaceful tomorrow!

I want daddy....

My 21 month old has just started saying sentances. yayyy! I am so excited. He has really just started talking within the past few months. He started sentances just the other day and they all start with I want. I want milk, I want juice, etc... The I wants were driving me nuts. I keep correcting him saying I would like blah blah. Well tonight was the kicker. I was rocking him in his rocker and talking about all the things we did over the weekend as I was putting him to bed and he said...I want daddy! Made my heart melt! Now that's the kind of I want sentance I don't mind! I can't wait to go to StrollerFit class in the morning and tell all of the other moms!!!

I did it!

Alright, one week back on track. Ran three mornings this week. Ran this am, did StrollerFit class and went waterskiing. Hopefully that will make up for no class tomorrow. Oh man, don't even get me started on tomorrow. Two StrollerFit booths in two different towns, instructor teaching class and company in town. Phew....as another StrollerFit instructor said..."I never signed up for easy!"

Guess this is just what keeps me ticking. Busy, busy, busy!

Busy, busy, busy!

Oh man, what have I gotten myself into today??? No running this morning so slept in until 6:15. Waiting for a longer run Thursday or Friday. Today we have StrollerFit class at 9:15, a meeting with the MOPS coordinator to discuss my publicity position, then it's off to the waterpark an hour away to meet the fam and let the little guy play. Then it's back into town, gotta go to TJ's out of yummy snacks and of course time for new running shoes AGAIN (gotta keep those feet happy) and then it's off to Restore the Core tonight. Phew....then hopefully a little me time with some a wine date with a friend. Oh man, maybe I should just go back to bed again!!! Thank goodness for the strength I get from being StrollerFit otherwise I think I would never make it!

No stopping now!

Alright! I did it again! Up at 4:50 and off for some sprint training. Did a quick one mile warmup then two 800 meter sprints. We were supposed to do three but the other training mama's baby woke up! Let me just tell you that 800 meters is wayyyyyyy longer than I realized! A little disapointed in my time but at least I did it..right???

We are going for a nature walk today with our mom's group of StrollerFit moms. Do I get to count that too??? ha!

Back to Trainin'

Okay, I am back! I have been attempting to train for the Nike Women's 1/2 Marathon in October. You get a Tiffany necklace at the end of the race!!! I am running it with a few StrollerFit moms and just can't wait. BUT, I have had such a hard time fitting in the time to train that I recently decided that I may just have to run/walk. And then I decided last night. NO WAY! I will get up at 4:30 on Mondays and Fridays and run my 3-4 miles and then do my longer runs on Tuesday and Saturdays. It just has to happen. So, up at4:35 this morning, 3.5 miles under my belt and it feels good!!!!!!!!

Tata for now!
