I have four kids and one husband.  For even more thrills and chills visit my day-to-day blog here.  I'd recommend reading with your socks off.

It was just an easy run today at an 8:05 pace.  I need to work some time in for stretching - I'm getting tight through my hips these days.  I spent some time cruising around the internet trying to figure out some running terminology and how people figure out work-outs.  It was fun and gave me all sorts of stuff to dream that I'd like to do.  I'm sure I'll execute somewhere lower down on the scale, but the dreaming is awfully fun.

Today was one of those good days where I accomplished a few goals that I've been putting off, I got to see my kids playing happily with their cousins, and I got a good phone conversation with my husband (usually I have three kids demanding that I give them attention through the whole phone call and then as soon as I hang up they don't need me quite as bad anymore - I think the cousins distracted them today).  By the way, I'm starting a count-down, 40 days until the husband is home for a two week R&R.

Oh yea! I'm so glad you husband gets to come home soon.

Did you check out that foam roller? A must have for every runner. Definitely helps the hips/IT Bands/quads.

Haha. Oops. That last comment was me.

Maybe that will be my Christmas present - those are my trouble spots plus it seems like its something the kids would think was a game and they would be willing to "play" with me so I could get stretching time in.
