I did a 5k walk this morning with the kids at the Lisbon Homecoming.  I think it was a little bit too far for Kellen and Trent, they were pretty slow at the end, but we did it!

Change!

So many things have changed in my life in the last 2 year, including forgetting about this blog that I barely ever used.  The biggest change is that we have our little rainbow baby!!!! He was born 6 months ago and my heart is so full <3  I've continued to run since my last post, just not on a daily basis.  Since having the new babe I've been getting back into working out regularly, I did work out until about November but I had to stop running at 22 weeks during a Ragnar because the round ligament pain was way to intense while pregnant.  The good news is that my first longish run post baby was in May maybe, and I ran 7 miles no problem, just slower.   Tomorrow I plan on doing a local 4 mile race if the stars align.  I'm about 20lbs heavier than I was 2 years ago (post baby weight) so that slows me down a bit, I'm hoping all 20lbs of that is boobs and boob juice haha!  Anyway, I am going to use this as a running workout blog and try and keep myself accountable to get back in great shape post baby :)

Aug 24, 2015 - Streak Day 110

I made it past 100 days of streaking, woot woot! My only problem is fitting in a run longer than a mile most days... not good especially since I have a big race coming up next weekend. I haven't ran longer than 9 miles, and that 9 miler was in July and it was rough. So I'm prepared to want to die during the race lol. It's the 18.12 Challenge and this will be my 3rd year running it. So yeah, we will see how it goes next week. I'm still going to try and finish in under 3 hours like I did last year. This is going to be pure mental grit.

Streak day 73 Woot woot! Only 292 days to hit a year lol, no big deal.  I ran the boilermaker and it was rough, I felt horrible.  I hadn't been training any distance longer than 3 miles and I didn't eat enough, and it was the dreaded day one of my cycle (yeah TMI sorry but for women it is the worst day to work out, you have zero energy). Regardless, I finished in 1:31:30 I think? A minute slower than last year dammit haha!  That was my third Boilermaker yay!  Next up the 18.12 Challenge for the third time.  time to start training for real.

2015

Sooooo yep I haven't written in a really long time, obviously. I went through a slump in the late winter/early spring where I was still working out all the time, but, not running. So in May I started streaking, running at least a mile every day. It's been 66 days now as of the run I just finished, and I haven't counted the days until today because I just didn't want to make a big deal out of it. I haven't ran more than 6 miles at a time, and that was only once. Most days it's 3 miles or less, there have been a lot of 1 miler days. But, at least I'm running, right?


Streak - 66
2015 miles - 250.90
