When you cross that finish line -
no matter how slow, no matter how fast
- it will change your life forever.

I need more time in each day! [Training Day 258 Thur. 9/15/11]

Running
3 miles


Cardio/Toning
Power Hour Class 
at Marshall 1 hr.

I've had yet another busy week.  Meetings, appointments, consultations, etc.  I'm doing great remembering to pick up the basics at the grocery store.  Thank God for slow cookers or my family would starve!  I would love to say next week will be better, but that's not going to happen. Can we jump into October already?  I'm ready for life to slow down a bit.  I'm literally having to fit in exercise around the rest of the world, and I hate that.  Sigh.  If I only had one more hour in each day.  I might be able to squeeze it all in a bit better.

My shin is a little tender this morning.  I have a long run of 10 miles scheduled for today.  If it bugs me during the run, I might cut it short.  I have a race Sunday morning, Portland's Race For The Cure 5k, and would like to be able to set a new PR for myself.  Only time will tell, right?

{the good} I managed to put my foot down, and demand some gym time.  It was BLISS!

{the ugly}  I feel like I didn't see my kids much yesterday. [Insert frownie face here.]  Making the choice to go to the gym was healthy for me, but was it healthy for my family?  I'm afraid this is the question every mom asks herself.
