My freakin' hammy was so darned tight. I was completely frustrated by the end of this run. We were running about 6:40 to 6:30 pace this week I'm backing off. RAn at lake forest with Amy Haney, Brad Moats, Steve Clark!

59:03 My hammy was tight again, but this time it was very localized... only at the hammy glute junction. so I took it very very easy. I only stopped to stretch twice, at miles 2 and 4... after mile 4 it hardly bothered me at all! Willem was pretty well behaved today. I only had to be stern twice the whole run! yipeeee!

56:03  Hammy's were great at the beginning of this run. No problems. As I got farther into it I began to increase the speed.... I felt it react once I got under 7 min pace, but not to dramatically. Thank goodness... the Gentle paces are paying off. now I know that it is intensity, and not mileage that is bugging it! Now, just to be smart. Oh yeah, sweet vengance... Willem kept messing with the elliptical even though I said several times that if he did that it would hurt him. Guess what he pinched is fingers! When he cried i said, "WElp, I don't feel at all sorry for you. I told you not to do that, I warned you of what would happen, and you disobeyed me. To bad for you." I'm a mean mommy, but sometimes that just feels right. i bet he doesn't mess with the elliptical next time. And that folks is how curiosity killed the boy!

4.75 am Had to cut it short due to IBS. Not pleasant. See I just take all my stress and shove it way down deep inside. then It comes out the back end, and no one ever knows I was stressed but me. Its a beautiful thing. REally. Shove it down, shove shove shove it down. There you go!

 

5.25 pm Felt much better second time around. Luckily Willie didn't mind making two trips to the "treadmil room". He's learned how to use the stationary bike so that makes my life a little easier, as long as he doesn't rack himself, or hit his chin on the handle bars.

The wind chill was 17 or so... I pushed willem in the stroller (I'm not a child abuser, it is the Trek one with the cover to keep the wind off of him). My hammy started to bug me after 6 miles. I know it is from pushing the darn stroller, the kid weighs between 40 and 44 lbs based on whether or not he's eatten recently. He fell asleep at mile 6...(and became dead weight) But he was singing "John the fisherman" and "skip to my lou"... a little primus mixed with a nice all american folk song. Man are my kids warped. Basically I didn't die in the cold and willem was comfy enough to sleep. My bum hurts now but it was nice to be out side.
