Personal:

 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.

I love running in my new shoes, they are so light and springy.  Had a nice 3 mile run this evening and the weather was just perfect.  I loved every second of it.

This was a quick run that I just barely squeezed in today.  Better than none, so I'll take it.  Really liking my new shoes, they are so light compared to my last pair.  Had a class at Runner's Corner tonight with my sister in law and they covered a lot of good stuff on running form.  They even took video of everyone in the class running and analyzed each of us, was helpful for sure.

Indoor track, 3 miles of round and round and round.  Tried to really focus on my running form and work on improving the things I learned about in my running class.  It take a lot of mental focus to do that but with practice it may come more natural.  12 minutes on the lateral machine.  My new shoes did not like to go lateral as much as they like to go forwards, they felt weird.
