Running!


ahhhh running. I LOVE it. Call me crazy, whatever But its true. I love to run! I have been able to go pretty regularly for the last couple of months and the bug is back! I love the feeling of pushing myself to go a little harder or faster and the feeling of accomplishment afterwards! I love getting all sweaty and having it drip down my face. I love running to awesome songs and jamming out to them as i am running. I just can't get enough. For example, this morning I wanted to get up and run before Terry had to be to work. This meant that I was going to have to get up at 6 eat my energy bar and get ready, and be at the gym at 6:30 so I could be home by 7:30. Well, that didn't happen. It may have had something to do with the fact that i just HAD to stay up and watch "my life as Liz" of MTV last night which doesn't come on until midnight. Heaven forbid I miss an episode...anyway, I was so upset that I didn't force myself to get up. I was really looking forward to running. I seriously have been thinking about when I am going to be able to go and get my run in all day. I am starting to feel a little crazy about it. I am training for the utah valley half marathon in June. I am seriously so excited. Someday I will do a marathon, but for now a half marathon will have to do. If any of you readers out there (all 4 of you :) ) if you would like to run it with me I would LOVE it! I am also going to do the rex lee run in a couple of weeks also. its a 10k. if you can't tell i am pumped!! I can't wait until i can go for runs outside again!

And i know, i know, i am behind on the pictures of my little Mae. She is sooo big! She just walks around talking, laughing, and a few tantrums here and there. She currently LOVES mickey! Last night it was the sweetest thing, after her bath she just wanted to be held so I sang songs to her and just held her in her towel for a while! she loved it and I loved it! she is such a sweetheart!

I love those pictures of Mae!!! Sunglasses, a purse, what an attitude!
I know exactly how you feel about running. I don't know if I've ever loved it as much as you do, but no matter what you do to exercise, when you get going it's addicting! I love sweating and being sore too. Love it! I wish we could be here (maybe we still will) to cheer you on for your half. I'm sure I would cry like a proud mamma. lol!

That's awesome you love to run. You have to help me. I love to run too, but mainly just a 5K here and there. I've done one or two 10K, but I've signed up for my first half marathon this summer and I don't know where to begin for training? call me sometime or send me an email. Family dinner is the second sunday every month, (Bountiful) you guys should come, you're always welcome.
