andee's running

My plan was to do 5 on the treadmill this morning.  I got the baby to sleep and the twins watching a movie and started out.  The first mile felt great, the second was even good.  Somehow I hit the wall on the 3rd mile and nothing felt good.  I pushed through it and made myself do one more to hit 4, but that is all I could do.  Not really sure what the problem was:  a complete lack of sleep due to a baby that is up all night, eating crappy yesterday, hot.  But whatever it was it was UGLY!!  Hopefully I can regroup and get a solid run in on Wednesday.

Woke up on the wrong side of the bed today.  Knew that I need to run, but coming up with every excuse not to.  Finally I took the kids down and told myself I just had to do 3 miles.  I was pleasantly surprised with the kids played so well and the running actually felt really good.  Glad I did it!

Did 3 miles with circuit training mixed in - felt great!

I was so excited to be able to run outside in the beautiful weather this morning.  I love the group of ladies I run with - great conversation the entire time!  Half way through the run my left heal started to hurt and sure enough when I got home I had a blister - bummer.  I was upset to see that the back of my NEW shoe had a hole worn in it.  I've only had the shoes for a month and therefore have put about 85 miles on them - I don't think they should be wearing out already.  I'm thinking about calling the store and seeing they will work with me - is that appropriate???
