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 ;)

2.5 mile walk with Maryanne in the AM.  50 minute circuit training in the evening.  It is hard to get the two a day in.  I am plotting my day well so That I can come home from the pool in time to do the 50 min circuit, shower and be ready to go see the Help with our friends :)  We are going to the pool in a few here.  We've got to get in all of the time we can before FALL comes along with school to RUIN our lives ;D  I may need to move to.... I don't know where......  At least now I have an elliptical and a stationary bike to add to my treadmill in the family room.  It's a bit much to have crammed into a corner, but it will save my hide this winter :)

Two a days, eh? Look who's tough.

How did you like The Help. I just read the book and might go see the movie with my friend next week.

Oh and I think you should move to Colorado. But school has already started here.
