I am beginning to freak out about how big of a deal a marathon really is! I have been running and doing strength training nearly every day (Fridays and Sundays are my chosen "rest" days). Yesterday I ran more than I walked (YAH!), for only 30 minutes, though. And for quite a bit of the time on the treadmill, I was thinking about how much juggling I had to do to get those 30 minutes in, between children's naps, cleaning, and taking care of our mini petting zoo (horses, cats, and a dog). How am I going to get in more than 2 miles a day? My older two children can entertain themselves during my runs, if needed, but my youngest cannot be trusted to stay off the treadmill while I am running and she tends to be a "mama's girl". I guess I need to just breathe and take it one day at a time. It would help if my children would nap regularly...
