okay...I just have to say I feel awesome...I'm pregnant with number 6...had some super sick days this week where I made Sasha help me all day one of them(rare thing for me..usually I'm happy for him to blog all day while I slave alone. ;) ....but despite it all I have run 5 miles every day. I am really grateful to Sasha for keeping me in shape and for suggesting the 5 mile a day plan for me. Even though I've had some sick days I feel my overall energy is better than it was with my last two pregnancies. With number 4 I needed to get on thryoid medicene and had a rough time of it at the start. With Jakey baby (number 5) I was more tired I think because I had only been running 2 a day when I got pregnant and slowing down a bit on low mileage just didn't give me that extra kick I'm getting from higher mileage now. At the time Sasha and I both thought that 2 a day just made sense for a busy mom...but more miles really does give you more endurance and you are just in better overall shape. Have a great weekend y'all!! |
