2 miles before power pump - 1 min on/1 min off

power pump - for the first time EVER, I felt like I could do the workout with an extra amount of omfff.  Hopefully that means I'm getting stronger.

I'm REALLY trying to be smart and use November/December as an off season.  I think I started my Ogden marathon training too early and it came back to get me.  So today was a rest day.

I have a daughter who is a hoarder.  It is quite funny because my husband and I are minamalist.  So I'm not sure where she got that from.  We have been switching bedrooms around - we had to split up my 2 big girls because of the hoarding.  

It has been moving furniture, painting, dejunking and major cleaning at my house.  We probably have another week of major stuff.  But today, I sorted all my running/outdoor gear.  No one probably cares, but my life feels much better when I have order.  

When mom is happy...everyone is happy!

5 miles before power pump with Kellie at the gym.  Ughhhh...it was so HOT!!!  

Power pump class with Kelli and Collette.  I saw two of my kids' teachers from school in the class.  I was way too sweaty to be chatting it up.
