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 ;)

A 5k to start the day then 4 more to round it off.  My first 7 in a LONG time :)  the last mile actually felt the best.  It felt GOOD :)

Our city put on a $1 5k/1 mile fun run for the city in an effort to encourage physical fitness.  My first mile was with my 10 year old.  He did great.  Then he hopped on his bike and rode the rest of the 5k with me.  At the start of the 5k I was starting to get a migraine :p  At the 5k finish, I didn't feel well, so I went home (a block away from the race start) and ate a little and drank.  Once I felt better, I headed out for 4 more miles.  These 4 miles were wonderful.  The last mile was perfect (except for that STUPID neuroma ;p)  

I don't have any negative effects from running. No fatigue, no aches, no pain :)  The niggles are very small aches in my back and si joint.  they are VERY small and seem to be diminishing each week.  I can't wait to run 8 next week.   I will be a happy camper when 10 miles on saturday is the norm again :)

I'm so glad to hear that you've been out running. And all that's left are little niggles, which are going away. Yeah!

Yay! I'm glad to come and see things are looking good for you! SEVEN miles! I'm sure you are thrilled to death! I hope the good keeps coming your way! :)
