6 miles on the base pushing Naomi around.  Killer workout.  I got to watch the fire department start a plane (practice plane) and come and put it out.  Pretty neat.  It was cool out, 75. :)

6 miles on the indoor track, most of it pushing the stroller.  Ran 2 miles worth of fast miles.  First time doing somewhat real speed work post baby, that was interesting.  It felt good letting my legs go as fast as  I could.

Baby would sleep better if I ran as fast as I could. When baby was asleep I would park her on the side of the track and see her every time I passed.  It's a nice place to run minus it's 13 times around to make a mile and the fact that it's upstairs and there is no elevator.  That becomes a task when you have to lift the stroller up the stairs.

6 miles on the TM.  I traded workout times with my friemd.  I babysat while she worked out and then we traded.  It was nice but makes the morning a really long one.

Shout out to myself.  I am just really proud of my mileage and motivation for the week.  I am a new mom and so far I am making this running thing work. SO FAR.  

David and I had a 16 miler planned on the books and we weren't sure how we were going to make this work with little N.  We decided he would run first, I would get ready and feed the baby and then he would come and get us.  

Plans worked out.  I ran the first 8 miles with David and he pushed the stroller.  Naomi did so well as she looked up at us just strolling around in her diaper.  Just about the cutest thing ever.  After over an hour we took Naomi home.  I got water, gatorade, an AMAZING salted caramel GU and changed my shirt (I was soaked).  

Went back out and did the remaing miles at below an 8:30 pace on hills.  It was about 80 at this point, so I felt really well about this run.

8:30 AP for the run.
