It's Been FOREVER

Okay, so I kind of skipped something like the last 2 months. Sad, really because there was so much to blog about during that time. Like my 15 mile run with no socks, my puppy pal "Rex", my run to the falls with my sweet 4 year old who kept insisting "we were BORN to run, weren't we mama?!", and my recent run with rescued kitten on my arm (for over 2 miles!). There have also been races. Race season started and so far I have done 3. The first one was a 26:39 PR and a first place in my age group in the rain. The second was a 27:04, tough, hilly run that made me want to DIE. I still managed 2nd in my age group and 4th female overall. The third was a tough course where I had to stop and tie my shoe and STILL managed a 25:41 PR, albeit 2nd in my age group by about 6 seconds...darn shoelace! I am running another in the morning. We will see how it goes. I am also scheduled to run one in New Orleans on June 13. I am really excited about that one!

My half marathon training has taken a hit with all the 5K races, though. I haven't run more than 9 miles in 6 weeks. I hate that. I really want my long run back.

My daughter has graduated from high wchool with honors. My littlest graduated from Pre-school last night. My middle one has barely survived his first year of middle school, but he DID survive. I am proud of them all.

So, that is the catch up. I am going to try to do better, I swear.
