In Training!

I am currently training for my third endurance race: a 10K & half-marathon in one weekend! Join me on my crazy journey to the finish line!

Week 2 of Training Begins!

I'm so glad that I have a network of terrific friends out here!  Jenn came over with her three sweet kids, brought breakfast, and watched my boys so I could get my 3 miles in today.  She even organized & cleaned up James' room for me.  I think I'm going to have to petition for "sainthood" for her! :)

Three miles were tougher than 2, but that's expected.  I discovered that I really need to get one of those belly pack things for snacks & water/Gatorade.  I can't wait until the end to get a drink (I know, duh).  I actually met someone who had an interesting T-shirt (print was upside down and said something like "If you can read this, turn me back over in my canoe) on and we started talking & "jalking" (jogging+walking) together.  He's a grandpa with grandchildren around my kids' ages and it was his first time to "jalk" after a long hiatus.  It made the last mile a little easier.

Until next time...
