Live Well Laugh Often Love Much Run Fast

I woke up on time to get my little 1.5 mile run and yoga in but my two older boys are taking their UBSCT tests starting today, and I wanted them to have a healthy breakfast.  They usually pour a hefty bowl of cold cereal, but I want their minds sharp, and Captin Crunch dosnt cut it!

Theres something about Mom being in the kitchen that draws all the kids and conversations into it.  We had a great morning but by the time my husband took them to school it was 7:45.  Last month I would have bagged running, but not now, Im sticking to my goal!! I did a quick mile, quitck stretch, quick shower all  before my next car pool and off to work. 

Half the battle is getting out the door.  After breakfast was made for my growing boys, I went outside with the intent to run even though I didnt have much time and my leg hut.  I ran a few house then bagged it.  My leg was hurting and I wasnt in the mood.  I came back and rode the stationary bike.

Im So proud of myself!  I really struggle with time constraints .  I have so much on my plate and Im so worried about failure that I sometimes dont try, therefore I wont fail.  BAD BAD I know!

Today I walked/ran for 41 min.  I wanted to go 30 and I did it!  I ran a mile then walked then ran the other 1.5 miles.  My leg hurt in between but I walked with wide strides to stretch out my leg and was able to run again.  Now I know I can do it.  I can accomplishment my running goals (just got to keep my leg injury free).

I ran my fastest mile this morning.  Because of the cold and wind!  It was so cold, I just wanted to get done and back home.  I have acclimated to STG really fast. 

With my warm up and cool down I did 1.5

It was raining this am , STG streets dont drain well, so a little bit of rain fills the roads fast.   I skipped my walking warm up and ran a quick .25 then home to ride the bike inside and do yoga.  Good start to a busy day.  But Im really getting behind on my goal of 20 miles this month.  Im going to have to get busy over the long weekend.

Forgot today was Tuesday until I was laying in bed remembering all the fun things I did this long weekend.  By then I didnt have time to leave the house for my Tuesday jaunt.  I rode my bike inside while I signed homework notes and dished out lunch money.

My boys have basketball games tonight, if its not raining I will run when I drop them off instead of sitting there for 30 min prior to the game starting.  Got to use my time better!  

7pm - I went for a night runtonight.  I really liked it other than it was hard to see, I might switch my runs to night.  Im not a morning person, and running at night helped me keep my food intake down.  This could work out!

Woke up at 1am with intense pain in my hamstring.  I liked the night run last night, but I need my sleep and don't like pain (hugh go figure)  :)

Did AM/PM Yoga, hope this helps out today.
