My Daily Dose of Sanity

11 miles outside today.  I maintained a Boston qualifying pace throughout.  I hope I can do that for 26.2 miles in September. 

slow easy pace on the tm

Ran 4 miles with the babe in the stroller and the hubster by my side.  Pushing the stroller even if it is a jogging stroller is hard work, I say.

Ran 8 miles at my hopefully marathon pace.  Felt super good.  Included a long steep hill in it too. Average pace:  8:10

Went to Good Ole Gold's this morning and did the elliptical for 45 minutes than ran on the treadmill for 2.5 while Lily walked and talked to me.  She didn't want to run today in anticipation of her race tomorrow, but I she was sweet and kind enough to walk by me and chat to help the time pass quickly for me.  What a friend!

My inlaws were here to stay so Adam and I left the kids with them sleeping this morning and did a run together.  It was so much fun to be together doing it. I am excited to do it more often some day.  It was a miserable run other than that.  My right butt cheek hurts so bad every time I run these days.  I have a pulled muscle or something right where my legs connects to my bumtock.  We run by the city center to watch the local yokel runners come through the finish line at the Speedy Spaniard. That was awesome.  Good job Lily and Merri especially.  I am proud that I can say I know them.
