Total Distance
7.80

Okay, somehow I managed to gain two pounds since yesterday.  I don't get it and I hate scales.  Maybe the cookies from this weekend finally caught up to me?

Well ran out to lake park, then out and around discover card turned around and came home.  I had a hard time loosening up.  Not really sore just slow.

miles 13:20, 12:48, 12:22, 11:52, can you tell I am starting to feel good.  This next mile was really slow because I sprinted up the hills and the walked to the next hill to sprint up it.(Max speed 6:13)  Almost lost my tummy on one of them, but I guess that is why they call them hill kills.  So mile 5 was 14:03, and 6 was 12:25. 

Oh and when I got home, I found out, I um, *blush*, had put my underwear on inside out! 

PM, 1.8 miles with kids in stroller to the park, to a friends and then home.

Thank you so much for all your wonderful support. I try not to get too mad at the numbers, figure if I eat healthy, keep running, it will happen and even if not, I'd love to see some cute gym rats just try to run a marathon with me;)
