I love running!

257.6
C25K W2D1

I want to go again - right now! I loved my run this morning. Took L'il Girl with me and improved my speed and distance today. I had a little trouble going for 90 seconds sometimes - especially coming back up the hill but... All in all, a great run and I can't wait to go again.

Insomnia

---
C25K W1D2

Haven't done the run yet, but I will. Had some sleep problems last night - both the boys and me, so I did not get up as early as I would have liked to (10AM). So I am going to leave 45 minutes early to pick up the boys and run along the road in front of the Heron Hill Winery (about 3 miles away from me, but too far for me to run to - for now :) ) park the car at the lookout and have some beautiful scenery to go along with my run. Then I will go get the boys and even though I got a late start I will have accomplished what I needed to today!

Couch to 5K - W1D1

250.8
C25K

Inspired by Lorie from the token fat girl I have restarted my Couch to 5K program. I like the feeling of accomplishment finishing a run gives me, and just the few weeks I was doing it last spring/summer I was rapidly able to improve my speed and distance and I look forward to completing the program (and the "runner's high" everyone talks about). I have the same respect for runners that I do dancers - something I have not been able to get my body to do in the past, but I am trying to get better.

And it looks like I will need to find a better way to store my Crockpot yogurt overnight for the winter - the last 2 batches of my yogurt (made from the Crockpot Ladies' Blog) have not set enough because the kitchen got so cold overnight. I am going to invest in some heavy bath towels and store the crock in the oven overnight from now on.
