I'm back to training for my second half (I'm doing the same one as last year), and I'm feeling pretty good about my runs, for the most part. So hang in there. Give yourself a little break. Then get back into it!Sajhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15613435104899477987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2667216505702880938.post-39988453453771269902012-04-15T14:28:13.971-07:002012-04-15T14:28:13.971-07:00YOU, my dear friend, are AMAZING!!

Testament to your training, determination and proof of a goal accomplished.

Not that I'm running much these days. I do know that the runs where I go in with no expectations and just take what I get are usually my better runs. <br /><br />Bad runs happen to all of us.

Through the power of twitter, I got to watch you and a few other people turn into runners. And then, when my time came to plug in the music and trudge through the beginnings of the whole C25k, I would push through, thinking of you guys. These other strong moms out there, running more than I could ever dream of, giving me that wee bit of drive to do it myself. <br /><br />Thank you :-)<br /><br />I'm proud to have watched you turn into a runner.jaynahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14215255040847440452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2667216505702880938.post-56570769802451827592012-04-14T16:40:33.193-07:002012-04-14T16:40:33.193-07:00Running?

The running thing is so mental. You can truly convince yourself to do anything (or not do anything) you want. So hang in there. Keep up with the consistency even if the few miles make you feel like "why bother?" Because when you decide to you want to do that next race, you'll be that much better off. I have loved watching you turn into a runner.Kirstenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10304497617228725441noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2667216505702880938.post-29935509528247395172012-04-14T15:17:41.865-07:002012-04-14T15:17:41.865-07:00These photos would have been picked best of the we...These photos would have been picked best of the week on Top Model- you worked it!

Today I did a 5K with my 9 year old daughter and I am finally back, almost 4 weeks later! Enjoy a mini rest!<br /><br />- KateAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
