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.

Hello April Showers.  Got rained on and buffeted by the wind, but I'll take it since it was above 50 degrees.  3.6 miles Avg Pace 9:02   I know, I'm slow, but I don't care.  I'm just happy to run injury free for now.  And it was really nice to get out a run today after taking the whole easter weekend off.

This was a nice comfortable 4 mile run.  It was beautiful outside, just a little bit on the breezy side which is never my favorite.  But I recently read of another blogger here who ran 100 miles in windy weather, so I know I have no right to complain.  :)

Glad I got at least 3 miles in today.  Felt so tired after having a three year old for a blanket most the night.  Tired mom's run slow, but at least I ran.  And it was warm and sunny, yeah for me.

This was my long run for the week.  8 miles 9:40 avg pace.  This is the first time I have gone this far in a long time so I tried to take it nice and easy.  I'm just working on building up my base miles gradually, I'm hoping if I am patient and do it right I can stay injury free.
