281 Days

I took yesterday off, in the spirit of New Year's Eve. But I jumped right on this morning and ran intervals again. All went well and I am feeling the need to bump up both my time and how much time I spend running.
Yesterday, my husband and I were discussing my marathon undertaking. My life has pretty much totally revolved around my 3 kids and their needs. About a month ago, I just realized that I need to have something just for me. Something that I can call my own hobby/activity. My husband just smiled and said, "I think your daughters are realizing this, too." The girls have been very good about this venture. My oldest even made me a sign to hang on the treadmill that says, "My Mom is Going to Run a Marathon. You Should Be Very Proud of Her. Go Mom!"

  1. Hey, Cristin: I've been terrible about blogging myself or visiting other people's blogs but I caught up on yours today. Gasp--you are running a marathon?! Wow, you don't set the kind of goals I would such as walking around the block after an evening meal, huh? :-) Well, you go for it, girl! I am proud of you and know you will accomplish it. I'll be excited to track your progress. Take care!

  2. Jen, thanks for the encouragement! I am quickly realizing that I have taken on something pretty big! I am hoping I can accomplish it. The girls are both pretty excited.
