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.

Treadmill run while the "Hurricane" was at preschool and the calm little one slept. I don't know what it is about running on my treadmill at home but I have the hardest time getting myself to do it. Of course, (like anything else in running) I felt better mentally and physically after the first three miles. I watched the Olympics and during the commercial breaks I sped up to an 8 min/mile. Average pace 8:55.

What was supposed to be 12 miles turned into a little more when I underestimated a turn. This was a hard run. Probably because I ate too many Oreos last night. Nabisco knows how to show love with their double stuff.

1.5 mile warm up 4x1 mile repeats with 1/2 mile recovery jog on between. 1.5 mile cool down. My goal was to stay around 7:10 min/mi and do each repeat faster than the last. Splits were 7:12, 7:10, 7:08, 7:07. Average pace for the run was 8:26.

The husband was sick today so after I put all three boys down for naps I took advantage of a gorgeous afternoon and went for a run. Who would have thought that on February 25th, I'd be wearing a tank top and shorts to run outside! So beautiful.

Easy miles followed by core work. And boy does my core need work. Ever since I had my baby, my lower back has been giving me trouble and I'm pretty sure its cuz I resemble the pillsbury dough boy in my middle.
