The date for this was actually May, 21, 2009 I want to be able to post all of my runs and so I should start with the first.

I went to my ob/gyn this past week and he pretty much said that if I like to eat I should run. Not a new concept, I’ve thought of it before and actually done and enjoyed it. Of course that was before I had kids. Running with kids isn’t as fun unless they are strapped in. J
So to make a long story short I was feeling frustrated and down all day and bedtime with the kids didn’t make things any better so I went running. For those of you who are carrying around less than an extra 30 pounds and live in flatter areas this won’t seem like a big deal. But I have to start my workouts by walking over what sometimes feels like Mt. Everest before I can reach flat ground and we won’t discuss how many extra pounds I’m carrying. I walked over the first hill(0.2miles) and then jogged the next 0.5 miles and finished my workout by walking over the other hill that isn’t as steep but is longer(0.3miles). So I did 1.2 miles in under 20 minutes. Most of that time was spent trecking over the mountains because I ran the half mile in close to 5 minutes.
So now to the subject…after three kids I need to make sure I go to the bathroom before I leave home or wear depends. It’s a good thing I had on a light pad since it’s getting close to that monthly time.
