I'm back! I'm going to back track and try and guess how much I ran in the last 2 weeks. I didn't do a whole lot, but I did some running! This stupid virus or whatever it is is finally leaving my body. I can't believe it lasted 2 weeks. Poor Hope still has it. It was 1 miserable week of fatigue, weakness, coughing, congestion, sore throat, no voice, trouble breathing, tired, weak, headaches, insomnia, fatigue, did I mention groggy? Wow, it was miserable. I remember 1 day I went out to run and made it as far as the library (.5mile) and just turned around and came back because I didn't think I could go any farther. Another day I went out for a run and I had my cell phone...2 miles into it I called Craig and told him to come pick me up, he didn't, so I had to run the 2 miles back home. I can't believe it was that bad! However, last week it was a little better, I was still congested and coughing some, but I felt much better. So I did one day of trail running with Maria (that was so fun!). Another day I ran the Mosque monster hill for the 1st time since living here (why I waited so long, I don't know) it wasn't as hard to access as I thought, you do have to run down a freeway exit ramp, but that part is just short. Then, for my birthday I got a new running stroller. Yippee!!! It is so nice, it's a Phil&Teds double and I love it! I took the girls for a run today in it, it was heavy with both girls, but what a smoooth ride! We did the skunk trail 5 mi. loop. Addy and I talked the whole way. It's nice having her in the back seat, I can hear her at such close proximity. Hope seemed to enjoy herself too! So, we are packing and moving this week, but I'm going to do my best to run run run. I feel like I gotta get back in shape! Cya. |
