Running, and running, and running

Running. That is the best word to describe my life lately. Both literally and figuratively. Since I went back to work, the only way I can get some exercise in is on the treadmill. I am very PROUD to say that I am now running 7-8 miles a day. 5 days a week. 8-ish minute miles. That is an accomplishment I didn't think would ever be possible. I love to run - but only after I get going.
This is how I feel when I'm done though.... Here's to training for a half-marathon - my next goal.



My life? Just as crazy. This week I have worked full-time, completed 2 childrens' homework and reading, done 20 loads of laundry, cooked all of the meals, gone to a soccer practice, two soccer games, one preschool field trip, one parent-table helptime at kindergarden, and one preschool reading time. That's at least what I can remember. Life is crazy. Good, but crazy.

I need a nap.
