Not such a good running day, but so far my only goal was to get out and mission was accomplished! Callzee and I ran an easy 1.5 together and then I did a LITTLE more on my own. Because I was quite crunched for time tonight! I must say I did feel better after I got out and ran even if it was just a bit. I woke up feeling kinda grumpy and not sure I wasn't coming down with some kinda stomach yuck, but I'm feeling a lot better now! It was almost cold tonight. My hands and arms were borderline numb by the time we were done! Even though it's not my best workout of the week running with a ten year old adds quite a new perspective. She notices everthing and is soooo positive. We talked about the beautiful moon and how believing you can do something is all that matters! She is the sweetest kid!

I have a crazy schedual this week, so my only goal is to get my legs moving everyday this week, no set distance! I have a confrence in SLC that I have to go to later in the week that is really gonna mess with things but I'll do my best!

I did .85 with McCall and then the rest by myself. She seemed to struggle a little tonight, but I think she was a little distracted. I didn't have a lot of time either, so kinda another wimpy day. Tomorrow is likely my only real good day for much of a run so I hope to capitalize on that and make it count. I did survive the field trip to Provo today, It was touch and go a few times, but it all ended well. What can you expect from a bus full of 5th graders and a total ride of 4.5 hours. (I'd like to think I could run a marathon in that amount of time it I had been training.) I also started out the day with a nice healthy breakfast thanks to Sasha's advice (Raw oats, fresh sliced peaches and milk) I'm sure that helped! Thanks Sasha, your advice is always valuble.

I went out a little later today because I refuse to bundle up yet if I don't have too. By ten it was shorts and t-shirt weather so that was good around 58 degrees, actually about perfect. I was going for 6 miles but when I went passed my house and saw that my husband had came home from hunting I went home to say hi! O well I'll run with Callzee tonight and get it up to 6 or maybe more. I was supposed to make today count as I am leaving at 5 in the morning to SLC to a nursing confrence untill Sat. I have to be up at 4 am. The entire reason I work nights is becasue I never want to see an alarm clock that says 4 am! So much for that!!! I guess once in a few years I can handle it? I'm hoping to find time to run at the hotel, but we are staying down town and the Gateway is within walking distance.... I may have to put on my running clothes jet down and speed shop through the stores and call that running!!! Yep, I think that I'm on to something. I'll let you know how that goes!!! Who knows I may even have some all time high milleage for the week.

Added 1.3 to make 6 for the day, off to the city tomorrow and hope t get some running in!

2 miles on the treadmill in the hotel at 9:45 at night after getting up at 4:00 a.m. and just getting back from Olive garden and comsuming entirely too many calories. Inspite of the obvious, not to bad. Would of done more, but tired and big day ahead, sleep was my priority!

four miles on the hotel treadmill at 6:00 a.m. felt like I had just left there...oh wait, that was just last night!!! Not bad for the treadmill. Had wanted to run around the temple and the surrounding area, but wasn't sure if it would be safe in the dark??? To bad, but it sure would have made a great run!!!

Three on the hotel treadmill. Not a record week, but glad that I got some runs in, which was the goal for the week. I have eaten terrible at these meetings and have decided to clean up my diet. No more treats till.....well I haven't decided the specifics. I think I'll commit to whatever tomorrow when my head is a little clearer, and I'm not under the influence of sooo much junk in the gut!! It won't be anything like no sugar or white flour, but it will be a good step for me and definately one in the right direction!
