Things I Think About When I’m Running

Well, I’ve signed up for the Camp Pendleton Mud Run for some unknown ridiculous reason. Since this will be my third mud run, I should have known better. However, my cousin Sara, texted me that she was doing it and was wondering if we were… Yadda, yadda, yadda, next thing I know, I’m doing it again. This…

The Color Run! Shine!

February 28th Steve, Emma, and I went out to Vegas and ran the Color Run with my Brother and his family. It was such a great run! The event is not timed so there is zero stress and it was a great first race for all of our children. I also thought it was pretty…

New Year’s List

This morning is the first day of the new year for me because yesterday I enjoyed the holiday, and sat around and played W.o.W. I tried really hard to finish all my favorite foods that were calling to me, and I stayed up late. I know, I’m crazy sometimes. This morning is my fresh start.…

Running! 12

Today marks Week 11! After 14 days of no running I finally got out there and ran stage 10. It was tough but I was so happy I did it. I had Steve rooting me on to not quit, so I made it through the two 13 minute runs and was very glad when it…

Running! 11

This week I did not run. There, I said it. I didn’t run, not a single day. I was up each morning by 0700 hours but never left the house. On top of being in the middle of a heat wave this week, I’ve been in the middle of the final stages of getting my house…

Running! 10

What a great running week! Which is weird because I only ran three times this week. However, on my last run I ran for 22 minutes straight. I just felt really good and decided to keep going. Emma was on her bike next to me and said she was sure I could keep running, so…

Running! 9

This week I caught up to stage 7! I was able to get into the running 8 walking 2! So I’ll do it a couple more times and then I’m into stage 8 and I’m caught up! The best thing I’ve done was to find an area with less hills. We have hills here no…

Running 8

What?! Stage 7? I can’t believe it! As you know, I stayed in stage 5 last week to get a little stronger. It was a good idea because I finished on top this week. The runs went smoother and I actually spent a lot of time thinking and looking around enjoying the scenery. When that…

Thankful

Sometimes while I’m running I try to think of good things. I remember one run I went on where I wore my Nike “Running Sucks” t-shirt and it was a terrible run. By the end of it I decided it was a bad run because I covered myself in negativity just by wearing that shirt.…

Running 7

Happy Friday everyone! So here we are at the end of stage 5! I hope you are all feeling great and moving up to stage 6! Personally, I’M NOT MOVING UP! As much as I’d love to say I’m awesome and I’m on my way this week, I have to admit I’m pooped! It may…
