Rest Day, without the rest.

Can I count Holiday shopping as cross training? Seriously it was exhausting! But we are half way done with the exception of buying for Handsome, but That is fun.
I ran three days straight I think it is a record! AND I am excited to go out again tomorrow. 65 degree Novemeber days don't hurt my current love of running. I'll take crazy global warming while I can get it!
I earned a PR yesterday! Not sure of my exact time but it is 34 something. My personal best so far was 36:02. So I am happy! The course is quite hilly so I am thing about running a flatter one soon ton see how I do!

Happy Thanksgiving

As I sit in a pause between courses, I figured I leave a little note.
I had an awesome 4 mile run. As in so awesome it is what all run should be. It was great. Made me happy. Then I yoga-ishec after. It was good.

I'd like to take a moment to mention a few things I am thankful for.
My fabulous husband, with out him I would surely go crazy. And he puts up with me and my running, most of the time
Mt beautiful daughter.
Turkey soup left overs
Great family

And finally dessert.
With I am off for pie and cheesecake

Giveaways in Blog land

Today is Handsome's 30th bday. I am thinking about being a good little house wife and baking. I saw this sugar free brownie and other recipes on Run to the Finish today and I feel a little inspired. Although I know Handsome would prefer sugar for a birthday celebration. So I might just get coldstone cupcakes or go to the Wicked Twist.

But back to the title and important things at hand:
GIVE AWAYS IN BLOG LAND

Adam is celebrating his 1000 post with free Brooks! here

Amanda at Run to the finish has an entry to the Shamrock Marathon here

HBBC two days in

Well two days in and I have had one good day and one bD day. Yesterday, I ran three and a half miles and then did twenty mins of yoga. So four points, four and a half? I got six fruits and veggies, I was so close to 7. Maybe tomorrow.
Then we went out for Handsome's bday. Beer and fried food and fun. The Little Lady spent the night at her aunt's house so today we pick her up and headed to a friends baptism. Babies in dresses and suits so cute.
Here is to some more running this week and the Turkey Trot next weekend and the brunch that follows

Wonderful Weather!

It feels more like mid April then mid November. The weather outside was beautiful!
I went for a quick 2.5+ mile run with the jogger and it was fabulous. I wore my capris and was wishing I had put on a running skirt.
The Little Lady and I will be heading to the park this afternoon for sure! I have heard there are rumors of rain and coldness tomorrow. So sad.

New FREE shoes!

I won free running shoes!
It almost made getting up with Little Lady at 630 am, on Saturday worth it. I am trying not dwell on the fact that this news would still have been very exciting later in the morning.
The fabulous ladies at Run Like A Mother hosted a giveaway of a pair Altra Intution .
I won!
I never win!
I cannot wait for them to get here. I need new sneakers too!

Welcome to my blog

I thought I had a blog that I had attempted to start...many times. However when i just went to look at it, it's gone.
I am going to try use this blog to record how well I manage to stay on the task of working out while having a 1 year old.
I don't stay on topic very well so we shall see how it goes!
