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. Favorite Blogs: |

| Miles done at the gym. Didn't have it in me today. I bailed to the stepper. I couldn't even finish that last mile out! Did the stair stepper for about 15 mins after. |

| 8 miles. I have a little Monday morning riddle. What rhymes with: Time javing a haby? Yep, September 3rd is the big due date. Feeling all sorts of emotions: excited, scared, happy, jealous (of all you racing fools), content, ....welcome to pregnancy I guess. |

| 7 miles outside! Woohoo for outside running. Not sure on speed. Slow. I'm trying not to worry too much about pace since I've gotten pregnant. It seems as though the moment I found out, it became so hard to run at my normal easy pace. Easy pace has now become hard. I know that's normal but still...not fun to watch yourself get slower and slower so quickly. I need to remember to appreciate my body and what it is capable of. (running AND supporting/growing a baby) My goal is to run for as long as I can during this pregnancy. With my first child, I tore my ACL in a soccer game the week I found out I was pregnant. That meant no running, no surgery until after the baby. It made for a loooooong nine months. |

| Outside miles. Ran by Great Harvest. The bready goodness radiates for miles around that place. Don't know if that was a good or a bad thing. I may have to make a stop there today..... |

| Don't know what's gotten into me. I felt like my "normal" self today. My pace was still slower (around an 8:45 min/mile) but I felt like I could run forever. 6 miles turned into "just one more".... Maybe it was the fuel from my Great Harvest bread run yesterday. |

| All good things must come to an end. I knew that because I felt so great yesterday, chances were I'd be paying for it today....And I did. I don't know if it was because it was on the treadmill (mentally harder for me) or just because.... but my body let me know that it wasn't invincible. Once again, I need to respect the process (of growing a baby) and just be thankful I can run. Average pace was around a 9:00 min/mile. Lunges, squats, dead lifts after. |

| Woke up feeling off and had a sore throat. Chalked it up to dry air and sleeping with my mouth open (I'm a sleeping beauty.) 1 mile into the run, I promptly turned around realizing something was wrong. A few hours later, both my son and I have strep. Boo. |

| On the mend. Several trips to the refrigerator for apple juice. My son and I drank about 2 liters today. Eating anything else just hurts. Waiting for antibiotics to kick in, thank goodness for modern medicine. | | Add Comment |

Tried out my new (old version) Brooks Pureflows. I loved them. I think I may have found my shoe. Running warehouse has a great sale on them right now and if you enter the promo code FB15D, you get an extra 15% off. I ended up only paying 50 bucks.

| Treadmill miles. I don't love running on the treadmill while pregnant because my slower pace is staring at the me the whole time. When I'm outside I switch my garmin so I only see the miles tick by and not my sluggish pace. |

2 miles before a weight lifting class, 1 mile after. My husband and I opened and polished off a box of Girl Scout cookies yesterday, all by ourselves....we have a problem. I have pregnancy to blame it on, I don't know what his excuse is! (Although, lets face it, I could easily do that any day of the week when I'm not pregnant.)

| Early morning treadmill miles. Didn't sleep very well last night. Reminded me of how I felt after running after working a night shift....or how I felt with a newborn.....Good times to come. |
