I had my baby go to his great grandparents home today so I got cleaning and lost track of time. 

I took the kids down to the park and was able to run a mile around the track. (9 minutes.) I did not use my inhalor and my chest was getting to tight to breath, I did try walking .50 to see if walking helped but it didn't, so we came home.  My allergies are getting so bad, my nose is feeling raw  from running so much.

I used my inhalor and got my cough under control then I got on my treadmill.  I think I may have had my best times today. i am not sure.

My first 2 miles was in 18 minutes, then 28 minutes by mile 4.10 I was at 40 minutes. I slowed down at the end.  I walked the last bit up hill using weights.   I felt really good and no knee pain at all.    I did keep getting a side ache and that did not help but other wise, I had an awsome day.
