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 ;)

I argued with myself from about 5:30 am until I finally got on the treadmill just before 9.  What a bum!  I watched the thermometer go from 0.0 to 0.4 to -0.6 to where it stands now a 6.4.  It's a warming trend!

I have started taking vitamin D.  I think it is helping :)

So here is what I did today :)  Stretch, 1/4 mile walk, 1 ,mile run, stretch, 1 mile run, 1/4 mile walk, stretch, roll.

I stretched mid run because I was getting bored.  I really hate running on the treadmill.

I am trying not to get excited, but my lower extremities are really behaving.  My left ham is a very tiny bit whiny, so I am increasing the inline on the treadmill a bit and doing a few extra stretches.  FYI- Dr Brady said that increasing the treadmill incline puts my stride a bit more on my toes and relieves some tension on the hams.

Self imposed day of rest.  Next week I get to run everyday :)  Just two miles, but EVERY day :)

I ate too much pizza at the kindergarten luau today :(  but, I did finish These Is My Words today.  It is by Nancy Turner and I really liked it.  It ended a bit abruptly and sadly, but the book was good and I recommend it.

Woke up at 5am.  It took until about 8:30 for me to be brave enough to get out of my WARM bed :)  I am such a time waster!  I wanted to get up and do yoga this morning, but I was having such a nice quite time alone in my warm bed, that I just stayed there FOREVER!

1/2 mile walk warm-up. Stretch.  2 mile run (12 mm). 1/4 mile cool down. Stretch. Roll. Freeze while I blog. Shower.

I scraped last night.  I have to do that every night.
