Nothing really eventful in my run today. Two miles - no walking - nice temperature - felt good. I'm tired this evening, though ... and grumpy, truth be told. :o)

Grumpy= good time to do a tempo run! Or dejunk the garage. I can be ruthless at de-junking when I'm grumpy. Love you.

Has Lybi always been that funny? Who's older?

I'm proud of you for being consistent. You remind me a lot of well..me when I first started out a few years ago...I remember feeling like I could run a marathon once I crossed the four mile barrier. Keep up the good work. Is that your little girl? She is so cute!!

Yes, Lybi was ALWAYS been funny. I'm older by 2.5 years, but she always outshines me. But it's okay, cuz I like laughing along with everyone else.

Ha,ha! Sarah, that's so true. I came home after running 3 miles and was sure I was headed for great things!!! ;o)

Yes, both girls in the picture are mine. The baby is so fair skinned; sometimes I feel like we're a commercial for ebony and ivory! They are so fun, though. I'm sure Hayley (on my hip) is going to be a great runner. She's so coordinated and has so much energy.

Way to get out there- even when you're grumpy! I'm finding that consistency is the key! (or so I hear- LOL!)

Laura, every run is eventful, make it so.

Take care

Sasha would love to adopt a black baby someday for that very reason. he'd love to raise a little world class runner. Works for me since I think black babies are actually the cutest babies!!
