I have been a runner off and on since I was a kid. Its something I have always loved and hope to be running until I'm just too old to do it anymore. I enjoy running some 5ks and halfs each year and try to be consistent with my training. But I often find it challenging with three kids to get all the miles in that I want to.
I love my kids so much, but running really is my sanity and I enjoy my "me" time. I may just be forever a "middle of the pack" runner but have hopes of getting faster.
Had to sneak some miles in on the treadmill while my girls watched Disney Jr. Some
Days I'm just lucky to get a run in at all. Now to see if I can get them to be good so I can have a shower.

No kidding! Us running moms deserve special bonus points in races for the things we have to put up with to get a little training in. Atta girl!

Great job juggling everything and getting your runs in this week! My baby is only 5 months old and I am already seeing how it takes constant effort to make sure running doesn't go by the wayside! I just keep reminding myself that it makes me a better mom and eventually it will teach her that exercise is important. :)

Yeah getting those runs in can be a challenge but it always feels worth it. I'm glad there are other moms out there who can sympathize with the juggling act we go through. Tara is right, we should get extra points or something.
