find each others light

4 at 5:50am.

I was going to do Power Yoga or take a nap after putting Josie to bed at 1:30pm. But then I decided to take her to the social security office and wait for an hour for a replacement ss card. It was super fun.

It was a nice, mild, early morning run. Slow but I did it. On the way back in to my neighborhood I saw something scurrying across the street that was smaller than a cat. I was thinking of things smaller than a cat...it wouldn't be a squirrel...a chipmunk....no...it was a RAT! I saw it well cause I had my headlight on. It ran right in front of me! Gross. 

The other morning I saw somebody's mailbox smashed on the ground with a smashed pumpkin next to it. Sad.

It is fun to see all the halloween decor and lights on early morning runs. The most important day of the year is almost here:) Fun.

50 minutes- Jillian's Banish Fat/Boost Metabolism workout. It was really hard. I'm really out of shape. Or it might have had something to do with the blood donation I did last night. First time in 12 years I've donated blood. I've been busy having kids all those years and I just don't like needles poked in my arm.

mowed the lawn and did laundry.

Wow. I haven't run five in a really long time. It was cloudy, rain soaked, beautiful fall leaves. It was nice to run with some day light. Awesome run even though slow. I still feel my foot but I don't care cause i'm tired of not running. Around mile 4 I saw my husband running toward me out on his run and I gave him a kiss before running home. That was fun.

3 sets of 10 handstands in between 3 sets of planks at 2:00, 1:30 and 1:00. Held the handstands for 5 secs each. I almost couldn't hold the two minute plank cause i'm sore from yoga yesterday.

I just have to say that IT'S A REALLY BAD IDEA TO STOP EXERCISING! I've been trying to climb out of the black hole I've been in since Salmon marathon and it's tough to see what I've lost. But I'm getting back there.

Surgery on my upper back to have a cyst removed so no handstands today :(

Walked 2.3 miles with friends.

Did 30 handstands with plank for 2min and then 1:30 in between the handstands. I held one handstand for 30 seconds but the rest were between 5 and 10.

Super cold this morn. It was nice to run with light. I slept in cause it's UEA.

Off to snowbird for some activity fun with my kids!

I ran 1.34 around the neighborhood. During my run a lady rode up behind me on her bike, calling me by name. It's a lady I always see out riding her bike while I'm running. She asked if I was in pain because it looked like I was limping. She said she noticed today and last time she saw me running that I was running differently and apparently she's concerned enough to talk to me about. She basically advised that I stop running so I don't end up like her, on a bike for the rest of my life. She said I'm young and I need to be careful and ...I appreciate her concern but I just want to scream! I was telling her (she rode beside me as I ran this 1.34) I rested and that it wasn't hurting as bad as it used to. I stopped running cause I guess she was going to keep riding beside me till I stopped. Then I saw Lysa ran past up ahead but she didn't see me. I wasn't sure if it was her either cause she cut her hair. ANYWAY, I stopped running.  As we watched Lysa run by the lady said "She's not running funny." Like me. Okay...so...should I stop running? Should I listen to her? I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO!!! This probably doesn't make any sense. I don't care. I'm just mad. I'm MAD! I feel like I've lost what I had and can't get it back. I'm fat again and I can't run anymore. I guess this is my goodbye.
