My Favorite Quote-   "When you get into a tight place and everything goes against you, till it seems as though you could not hold on a minute longer, never give up then, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn." -Harriet Beecher Stowe

I started running in May of 2006 while losing 85 lbs after my youngest was born.  I have 6 fantastic kids, 3 girls and 3 boys and a wonderful husband.  My oldest is in college and my baby is in pre-school. (Six kids in 5 schools ;)

1/4 mile warm up on the treadmill. Stretch.  Ran with Michelle.  she pushed by 4 year old in the stroller while we ran at non-stellar granny pace, aka my pace :)  We ran too far because I forgot about the little loop to drop off my 8 year old's glasses at school.  It felt tired this morning.  I think that I really prefer the afternoon runs to the morning ones... although I prefer any with run Michelle :D

Any pace is a-ok. Michelles make wonderful friends.

I enjoyed the video. My husband is not a VIDIOT, but one of my sons is. I feel sorry for his future wife.

Glad the 4 miles are so far treating you well! It's been a long road, but look at you coming back strong! I have to run in the morning on a nearly empty stomach...once I start eating I feel like I'm going to puke if I run.

going to watch the video now...

lol!! That was the best laugh I've had in a long time. Although my DH is no longer a vidiot, I can relate :) He does better now, but yeah...a new game can bring out the 'best' in him!

Anyone who might be impatient needs to know they need to make it through 70 seconds, but the video is hilarious.
