    I didn't make it to my 5:45am strength-training class. :( My parents are coming into town tonight for the weekend so my plan is to make it up sometime in the next few days when I can sneak away to the gym!

    I ran 5 miles bright and early this morning. The temperature was only 67 degrees but it was 99% humidity.

    Enjoy the day

    Thanks ladies! It felt so good to be able to get out there after so many days confined to the house. I ran it in the same time as normal but I'm not going to lie, I huffed and puffed a little at the end. lol

    Tricia,

    Just read yesterday's post. I'm heading 5 hours north of Toronto, just me and my girls. We do this every year and spend a week with my family. I'm staying with my mom and she does not have a computer (she doesn't even know how to use a bank machine, gotta love her). My siblings have one at their homes so I may try and log on a couple of times while I'm there. Especially after my 8 miles, I'm gonna wanna brag about that run because my family just ain't into running. lol

    I'll be logged on today but I want to be gone by 6am tomorrow. :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:

    Ali, I'm sorry to hear that you were up all night. I completely understand the "it's cute at first but 2 hours later you are ready to pull your hair out"! lol
    My 3 yo was screaming last night and when I went to her room she was crying because she said I left her at home while I went to the store. lol I told her that it was just a dream and that we are home together now and to go back to sleep. Thank goodness it worked! lol

    I hope you have a great day! :flowerforyou:

    Way to go ladies!!

    I haven't been posting this week because I have not been running. In fact, I've barely been walking. I pole vaulted Sunday and pulled my groin muscles on both sides. I had a blast anyway. I am not giving up!! Because of being on blood thinners I bruise easily. I have a big, nasty, dark purple bruise on my thigh about 9 inches x 5 inches. My wife thinks I'm nuts!!

    I have been able to keep up with my P90X workouts with a few modifications for the injury. There are some moves I have not been able to make, but I am getting better.

    Good runs to all!

    Good morning runners.

    Great job to everyone who got up and ran. It was very rainy here but we needed it.

    I slept in today so no running for me. On a brighter note, my back does not hurt but I have pain in my hamstring. I am not sure if the pain is related to a tight muscle or the pain that is normally associated with my herniated disk. I am going to yoga tonight and see if that helps. I didn't get to the chiropractor yesterday and his office is closed today. I will definitely go tomorrow.

    I ran 8 miles this morning!!! That is the farthest I have run so far. I was exhausted after, but it feels good too! The worst part was that after I got out of the shower I remembered that my mom left my car at my work, so I had to walk to work from the gym. Its only about 1/4 mile... but after running 8 it was toture!

    Great job to everyone running today.

    Good Morning Runners!

    Good job guys for all the fantastic runs this morning.

    I'm going to stick with 20 to 25 minutes of jogging and some walking today and not push myself too hard. I will be having a rest day on Friday, Sat and Sunday this week!

    I'll post back when I return from my workout.

    No running again this morning. The baby was still fighting a fever and was up and down all night. Fever broke so tomorrow's another day. I'm trying to stay positive, so I keep telling myself that "I'm only 26, if I can't run today, it's just one day. There is always the chance for tomorrow." This mentality should work as long as I stay away from "someday." As Kechie so aptly put it, "Someday is not a day of the week." I think that today I'll be working on some powersculpting, and I may get out the biggest loser cardiomax. I love Bob! Talked to the hubby earlier, and if the rain holds off, we are taking the kids to grandma's after work just so that we can run!

    Congrats to all of those running today!

    Please don't say you need a life. If you do, that means that I do too! I don't even get the chance to run everyday, but I always wake up ready to hit the computer just to pull up this thread and read everyone's success stories. Maybe it's an addiction...do you think they have counseling groups for people like us?
