"Dy-no-mite" 5 mile run, and I mean "run", I usually always 'jog' because I much prefer slow & steady for longer runs. Though after catching the story about Rick & Dick Hoyt - "TEAM HOYT" on someones page I was inspired like I have never been in my life!!!!! I dedicated this run to them both before I began and it was "Simply Amazing" the strength I received from it!! A true Blessing from God above!! Amen!!! I encourage everyone to check it out!!!!!!! HUGE paradigm shift for me....HUGE!!! I am so INCREDIBLY BLESSED to have "this body" although it's not perfect it's mine and it "WORKS!!!" and that it can do whatever I ask it to do!! I am so very thankful!!!

7 mile run pushing Sophia!! Takes running to a new place when doing it with a little one. Kept saying "I miss you Aunt Kristine" & "I love you AK" all 7 miles.....so fun!! :o)

Despite some rather unhealthy choices I had a FABULOUS 6 mile run, effortless and very emotionally freeing, thank you God!!! Felt totally defeated and frankly could barely take the pain of this person in my life, so I just took myself out to a nice restaurant and simply enjoyed myself ~ no self-hate, just lovin'.

Caught in the middle of a CRAZY situation, though has NOTHING to do with me!! This is the most challenging experience of my adult life!!!!!!!!! As a result I am craving comfort food LIKE NEVER BEFORE!!!! Have been wrapping my toe just to be able to run, I NEED TO RUN!!!!!!!! it's my only salvation at this time and MUCH Prayer of course!! This person is trying to BREAK ME and my FAMILY!! I am refusing!!!!! I have NEVER experienced this sort of thing and I am digging as deep as I can to not let him win!! I think my "rose colored glasses" are broken for good!

9 1/2 miles, had to stop because got a "whopper" of a blister from new shoes, too far too soon, just couldn't resist, it was 75 and sunny!!

Awesome 10 mile run in New shoes...WOW....forgot what a tremendous difference it makes with new shoes!! Swear, they gave me more energy...lol!! I diffenetly picked up the pace more than usual. So fun! =)

Evidently I ran too far yesterday "while pushing a stroller up hills" because my ankles were killing today so had to skip my run!! On the most beautiful, sunny day so far, it was 75 and I couldn't run!! Someone shoot me PLEASE!!!!! LOL!! Hoping to make up for it tomorrow!!!:o)

Great 7 mile run! in a short sleeve t-shirt!! Yay! Was beautiful, pushed Sophia in the stroller up all those hills, felt like superwoman--Really, I did!! LOL! :o)

WOW!! it's been a while..Sick AGAIN!!! Had some "horrible" issues with a medicine I was taking and have been sicker than a dog, unable to eat and work out!!! UGH!!! Had good w/out today, plyometrics, my fave so I really enjoyed it!! So glad to be back and "FINALLY" feeling better!!!! It's been very rough mentally and physically!

*Have been sick again, immunity issue I am going to begin to tackle head on !!!! Though have been keeping up with Yoga and Weight training! :o)
