Christmas in August

i ran 3 miles yesterday on the treadmill at the gym.  it was the first time i wore the brooks glycerin's.  they are going back.  my feet hurt so bad and i had slight left shin pain. only 3 miles. that stinks.  i'm sticking to what works.  i like change but if it ain't broke then don't fix it.

today i hit the greenway trail with my little man for a 7 mile run.  he chatted the.whole.time, got pretty theatrical at times, crashed his bike when he was trying to give me the nuun bottle (cried a little but was ok), and sang christmas carols.  he's awesome!

it seemed cooler when i ran this morning -  about 75 degrees with 70% humidity.  but there was a light breeze.  and that helped - a lot.  my pace was much better today than saturday and i was very pleased with my timing. i'm really REALLY looking forward to cooler temps and lower humidity in the harder weeks to come.  66 more days to go... OORAH!

When my daughter was little and we went grocery shopping, she used to sit in the grocery cart seat and sing (quietly! : ) ) while I shopped. Kids are cute!

I love that you are making memories with your kids while you are training!
