Running to get into shape

Tonight Kory and I ran 2 miles in an average pace of 12.00 minute mile it was a little cold boy I can't wait for warmer weather. Back to work tomorrow it has been a nice week off.

Well my running partner and best friend Kory seemed a bit tired tonight ( lack of sleep last night )Although he all but begged me to let him go. (boo hoo)But I told him I would run without him tonight . Well I did it this is the first time ever running 3 days in a row I ran 2.13 miles at a 11.43pace I felt pretty good after I got started it was a little colder tonight my hands are still cold while typing but it was a great run.

Tonight I ran with Kory and my sister in law Kathy we ran at an 11:47 average pace I had a horrible headach today and thought that the cool night air would help a little but I still have it not as bad but will go to bed early, It seemed very dark tonight with a wind but it was warmer about 23 degrees amazing how a few numbers feel so much warmer. My girls 11 and 8 came home from school arguing about everything and I tried to get them to talk about the issues but they could not figure that one out, so I told them to go for a run and come back and meet and talk thing over amazing ,they both ran 1.3 miles and they were ready to talk and be nice to each other and they also got some good excerise in and amazingly they talked to each other with respect the rest of the evening. Hopefully I am on to something ha ah.

Today I woke up at 530am with killer migrane wasn't sure I was going to be able to run today because the med. I take wipes me out, but by noon I was feeling much better, we have had wind warnings all day ,until sometime tomorrow so running outside for me was not going to happen (Yep I chickened out), So  at about 815pm I got on the tread mill and decided to run, I ran 2 miles at 4.6 (approx 13:00 min mile) a little slower than I have been outside, but I did not want to push my luck, I then did a cool down walking mile at a 3.0 speed. 

Well what a run It was windy when we left the house we had parked the car 2 miles out with the wind behind me well that was the plan anyway well as we began running the wind had another mind of it's own so we ran with the wind everywhere it was blowing in every direction and then the snow came and it got cold real quick we got to the car and guess what I had locked the doors and the keys were now at home. So I told Kory well we better head back of as we were going back the weather was getting worse Kory said I know a short cut so we headed into a different direction and he took me through some lovely mud not knowing if we should sink or swim we made it through the mud, continued to run on home and Kory left me behind as the weather was icky He got the truck grabbed my keys and came and picked me up to go get the car, as we got almost their I looked over and noticed he had my keys not his so we had to turn around and go get his keys to unlock my doors needless to say we are still laughing at only wanting 2 miles but ended up with more. I have to say this is the worst weather I have ever ran in and I don't like it.

 Ran 3:00 miles at an average pace of 11:23  And .33 at an average pace of 13.23

Not much today slight sore throat and feeling real tired, .33 took 5,   3yr olds for a small walk in the snow to get some fresh air, and .65 on Treadmill. So no run today, but did manage to get a walk in. Early to bed tonight hope to run tomorrow.

Today I ran on the Treadmill it was blowing outside and I didn't want to run in the wind, So I ran at a 4.7 pace, I sure like running outside much better but it is nice to have a TM as a back up to keep the endurance building.

Today as I decided to run I really didn't have a plan so as I started I felt pretty good, So I ended up running 3.00 miles at12.12 average pace Before we left the house my children asked if they could run with us when we got back so we did my 3 yr old son ran .16 and then heard a train, and he has started not to like them, he said they are to noisy and he started crying to go home so we did, My girls finished running with daddy .60 of a mile. It is pretty neat that we can all do this together. Thanks again honey for running with us..

Tonight I ran with Kory all of my children stayed at there friends house tonight , I think that it has been at least 2 years ago that we did not have at least one of our children at home with us for the night, I almost feel lost,our average pace was 12:02. My pace seeems to be getting a little better and I am thinking about trying a 10k this summer. I have been having some sharp pains in my right knee again for most of the day today, but it didn't seem to bother me to much during the run.When we were through running Kory took me out to dinner and it was very enjoyable It was nice to have quality time together.

Today I ran the weather was perfect nice and warm I over dressed. Average pace was 12:10 mile. Wow it was a great run.. My right knee was acting a little funny sharp pains again I think I will start some strength training in my legs every other day.

Did not run today went to Gold's gym and did strength training on my legs.Hoping this will strengthen  the knee.

Went to Gold's Gym did cross training on legs. Will plan on running tomorrow. Probably on the treadmill, my children will be having friends over tomorrow night.

Well I managed to pull the dreadmill off tonight  It has been a very busy day and evening but God is always good to us. I learned tonight that I must have worked my legs and my abs pretty good last night because it hurt to run sore muscles I guess thats good at least thats what they say, anyway did 2 miles at 4.6 pace on the dreadmill I did stop .5 once I was just to hot. But I got 2 miles in.

Tonight I ran 2.00 at an average of 12.26 mile It was snowing and cold and some wind we had to go get some grocery's so I planned on running home what a way to get out of putting the grocery's away that don't happen top often, Thanks again Kory.

Went to Gym and did more machines, It is really cold here so hopefully I won't chicken out running outside tomorrow. Oh well could do the icky dreadmill.

Okay I think I might be back I ran 1.28 miles at an average pace of 12.00minutes this was very hard for me the weather was perfect I have not ran forever so it will be hard to get back into the swing of it again I ran with my children and my husband  we are planning on running in the Ogdon run if I survive after trying to get back into running I know it will come time willl tell.

I ran tonight oh how I regret not running since January 20th bad bad,,

between my knee healing and my surgury in my wrist and my Dr.

poisenieng me with a wrong medicine it has been a long month in between

okay he didn't poisen me we just found out I can not take Darvacet it

can cause headaches and with me being prone to Migranes it kicked in

one and put me in bed for 2 days I have never been in bed for 2 days in

my life and never want to be again, well anyway I ran1.30 miles, very

hard tonight I think I started to fast, at an average of 12:12 pace, I

know it will become easier again, I ran with my husband and it is much

nicer to run with someone else it seems to keep me going.

Today I took 7 3yr olds and an one of my daycare parents and we walked the children around the block, 1.3miles it took us about 35 - 40 minutes the children had a great time boy it always seems harder when you take that many children, Great fun for everyone involved.

Tonight I ran with Kory and my son Vance in the stroller we averaged a 12.40 pace  both of my girls age 8 and 11 also ran today 1.3 miles by themselves It was nice and warm a little breeze. It was easier today then the last couple of runs I think I am getting back into this.

Today was hard because of the wonderful monthly cycle that us women have to go through, but I did it and made it through a tough wind. 

Ran 1.30 miles with my husband, and averaged 13 minute mile.   I'll start back up next Monday.

Tonight I ran with Kory at an average pace of 11:51 it felt a little

hard on the breathing but was great after a noisy day of hyper children

the Leperachans came and visited the children and left a big mess and

some gold coins for them while they were taking their naps, boy were

they hyper .

Tonight I ran with Kory we averaged a 12.:04 it was a hard run the wind was blowing and I did not think I wanted to finish but I did and was very glad ..

First of all for those that have askedme,  yes I am still running a little I have not had time to log to much seems like life is to busy  We are getting ready to expand my family childcare and get our home back, also my children all have there own activities, I am lucky to even get to run so when I, do usually I don't have time to log, For the race.

I ran the 5K at the first mile 11:54, 2nd mile 12:36 finishing with 12:10 This was a nice race  Kory ran the Whole Marathon both Dallyce(25:04)and Grace (38:11) ran the 5K And Vance age 3 ran the kids K so we all ran and had a great time and finishing with the the Fun Dinousaour Park the kids had a blast and we had a great time the volenteers  were great. I would run this again. Although I had heard that one of the St. George running team members had told a couple of walkers to move and called them a loser for all you Marathon runners who think you are better than anyone else, you are wrong, I run the  5K and to me it is very challenging just like those of you who run long runs My mother in law walks the 5k and to her it is also very challenging hands up to those long runners that encourage us short runners,walkers to continue to strive to our best.

Ran and walked 1.73 with our family on Thanksgiving really did enjoy it is has been a long time.  Weather was perfect.
