I have been so lazy in the running department lately.  I'm finding it extremely hard to find the desire to run.  Today, with 101 excuses NOT to run, I overcame the odds and actually got on the treadmill.  It was not a peaceful run because my dear little children needed me several times and I had a phone call interrupt part way through.  However, I finished the 5 miles and am happy to be able to log it and start the month of right.

What a great morning for a run.  Met Jodi and Mauri at 6:15 and we headed out.  I felt great the entire time.  We kept a slow & steady pace so I never felt overly pushed.  Happy to be outside and get in done.

Trying to start the week out on a good note.  Told myself I only had to go 4, but ended up pushing to get 5.  Got a little winded and tired, which was odd because I really wasn't going fast at all.

Didn't get on the treadmill this morning.  Decided I would wait for my hubby to get home and then run outside.  However, he had different plans and so my running had to wait until I got the baby to bed and then it was on the treadmill.  Had a hard time getting into it, the first mile seemed to take FOREVER, but after that it was okay.

Headed out on my own at 8:00 this morning.  Dressed really warm and had snow for the first mile.  At about 2 miles I got really hot and started taking of gloves, scarf and unzipping my jacket.  Felt great!  Loved running through the fallen leaves and enjoying the scenery and time to myself.  I think it ended up just over 7 miles, but I'm not sure how much.  What a great way to start the day.  1:13:02

Okay, I was proud of myself for getting on the treadmill this morning.  My plan was to go 5, but the kids were a little fussy which caused me to jump off a few times to help them.  I really pushed on the 3rd mile and then my legs and desire just died.  I completely walked the last mile.  I'm not quire sure what happened, but at least I got something in today.

4 very slow miles today with some circuits/toning worked in.  My body just seems really tired.

Ran the "Flat as a Pancake" 5K with Laurie, Jodi, Mauri and Kristy.  Did NOT like the course at all - lots on grass and gravel - yuck!  Really had to push, but wanted to be under 30:00 and was thrilled to make it.  Not my worst and not my best, but okay.

6 miles on the treadmill this morning.  Really pushed the 4th mile so that it was under 10 minute pace.  Realizing that speed just isn't my thing :(  Ended up running 5 and walking the last one as a cool down.

Met Jodi and Lauri this morning at 8:00.  Felt great to be out, but very slow running.  I'm grateful for the BEST running friends in the world.  They keep me motivated to run and we always have a great time - thank you!

Up at 7:00 for a good run with Laurie.  Felt like we were going extremely slow - could be considering all the food I've eaten over the last 2 days.
