| | I went to bed early last night so I felt pretty good when the alarm went off this morning. My run felt good today, the weather was perfect and I wasn't too tired. My neighbor friend caught up to me just before mile 3 and her ankle was still hurting a little so we ran the rest of the way together. There is nothing else to report, kind of uneventful. |

| | I didn't feel very energetic this morning and I walked out the door thinking maybe I will run maybe I will walk. Once I got going I felt a lot better. I did the whole loop but really slow. I felt good after completing the run because I didn't go very fast but still got the mileage in. |

| | Today was a tough mental run. I almost talked myself out of running before I got out the door because there was snow on the ground and it looked really cold. I can handle running with snow in January and February, but May?! Luckily it wasn't as cold as it looked. When I finally got out the door I thought maybe I would cut it short, but then I would feel like a slacker. Then around mile 1 my belly started hurting. I am ok running through aches and fatigue but probably shouldn't run through pain. I walked for a block and then decided to tough it out. In the end I got all 4.4 miles done but not very energetically. Today my son is having a spiderman birthday party for his 4th birthday. I still have a lot of preparations to do for the party. It is going to be a busy and fast day with so much going on. Luckily I ordered a cake instead of making one. This is the first time I have ordered a cake, it felt weird at first because I usually make a fun cake for my kids but I think those days might soon be over.

| | I fully intended on running this morning and then plans changed. The joys of motherhood! My 4 year old son came in our room at 5:30 and my husband took him back to bed. Then he came in again at 5:40. I knew it would be a bad day if he didn't get more sleep because he usually wakes up around 8:30. To try and make things better I went and laid in his bed with him to see if he would go back to sleep. When 6:00 came and it was time to run he still wasn't asleep. I decided it was more important for him to get some sleep then for me to run so I kept laying with him. Finally he fell asleep, I tried to roll out of the bed and go ride the bike for a little exercise since my husband was then leaving for work.(My running window is very little, barely enough for 4 miles which is why I don't do more.) However, when I rolled out of his bed, he woke up and threw up. I guess that is why he was up early and not sleeping good. The noise woke up the older brother in the room and at 6:30, we were all awake what a joy. We had some early morning commitments at the school and I had errands to do so I completely bagged exercise all together. What a day, I am pretty tired and didn't even get a run in:( |

| | I got a lot of sleep last night which was much needed. The first half of my run was tough but about half way through I started feeling good and felt like I was normal running and not pregnant running. I even picked up the pace a little. My husband is now off on a long run because he is running a marathon next month. It seems tight for both of us to run on Saturday mornings. It is good I am only running 6 miles on Saturdays. The rest of the day will be busy with the last soccer game of the season, a birthday party, cleaning the church, planting a garden and we have friends in town who might move here. We are going to show them around a little and go to dinner with them tonight.
