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 ;)

So here is a brief recap of the past few months... stress fracture in June, july.  Started walking in August.  At the first of september started to add little bits of running.  I sprained my ankle in october, not serious, but just took a week off and then ellipted the next week.  I am back to run walking this week :)  I am SUPER FAT!!! So since my life is not going to "uncrazy" it's self, I am just going to have to learn to deal with stress without food.  The plan is to lose THIRTY pounds (20 "stress" lbs and 10 fantasy lbs ;) be kind and slow with getting back to running as I lose the terrible 20 and then run a 1/2 marathon this summer and st George in the fall.  

I do have an issue with my right knee.  I need to get into a orthopedic surgeon and have it checked out.  It has never been able to handle much running since the accident.

Today's activity. 20 min elliptical aerobic program. 40 minutes on the treadmill, 2 min walk 1:30 run.  Everything felt just fine :) 

I got to talk to Michelle yesterday.  It was SOOOOOOO wonderful to see her :)  I miss her :(::::::::..........
