Personal:

Married with 2 lively boys. I love running and I love getting faster. Just trying to figure out how to balance life between being a mother, wife, part time nurse, and runner. :)

When I was in 6th grade I filled out a Getting to Know You sheet. Under nicknames I wrote, "My brothers call me Boo Legs, I think its because I run fast." (It really came from the movie, Strange Brew) And its been my family nickname ever since.

10 slow outside miles. It felt good to run outside again. I haven't done so in about a month. Stinkin weather....

Almost died a couple of times due to some very icy spots and large amounts of snow plowed to the side of the road. There isn't as much room for me to run on the shoulder of the roads and not risk being side swiped by passing cars. Actually had to hop into snow banks a few times to avoid on coming cars.

Despite the car dodging and escaping death a few times, I was so happy to be running outside.

Started out on the treadmill at the gym. Just feeling kind of blah today. My sister showed up 1.25 miles into the run and I abandoned it for the distraction of talking to my sister on the stairmill/stepper. We chatted for about 45 mins on that thing and the time flew by. Thank goodness for sisters. Finished with some squats and one legged squats on the machine.

Treadmill miles. (So so nice outside! But the babysitter was the gym daycare today.) Followed by 50 "boy" push ups. Not straight in a row, mind you. Plenty of breaks were taken.

Treadmill miles. Average pace 8:40. Followed by squats and lunges. 

Maybe if I say it enough, it will come faster.....I'm ready for spring.

10 treadmill miles. Started out with a 9 min/mile and jumped all around with the speeds. Felt a little sluggish today, after 3 miles I felt better. Ended the workout with upper body weights. The goal for this week is to do some sort of weight training everyday this week.

Treadmill miles in the wee early hours before work. Some faster miles thrown in at the end cuz I felt good. Followed by squats and lunges. I'm on a roll with two whole days of weight lifting in a row...

Woke up to a sick child this morning. Sad day. Some nasty stomach virus is going around and everything on his inside seems to want to be on his outside. Poor little guy. Managed to get some miles in while he was watching Monsters Inc. Thank goodness for Disney magic.

10 pushups after. Strength training-check!

Early treadmill miles due to another night of things that are supposed to be inside the body making their way right on out every place possible. Awesome. Poor guy. Treadmill miles followed by upper body weights and planks.

Another Spring-like run. It did wonders for my mental and physical health. :) After I did a series of lunges, squats, dips and pushups. I'm going to do my best to be consistent with weight training.

Early morning run outside. I love running outside SO much more than the treadmill. Good times.

Met my sister at the gym and we had our weekly therapy session on the stair stepper/machine. 40 min later we had it all figured out. :) After the stepper, I did an "express" 30 min weight lifting class.

Treadmill miles. I'm so glad its warming up. I'm a wuss and want to run in notsofridgid temps outside. I'm a lightweight when it comes to running in the cold.

Lunges, squats, wall sits after. Legs were toast.
