Personal:

 David and I have been married since 2003, we've lived in AZ, UT (BYU, Health Science), WI and now we're back to our roots in CO. We have a little boy, Grant, who was born in 2009. I have never been a runner but like to pretend I am! I'm currently teaching aerobics in my church group and working on becoming a certified Personal Trainer through NASM. 

I'm pretty much obsessed with Full House, DQ Blizzards and Bajio. Sadly I don't have enough of these in my life!

Today was my first run since October. I was a little worried how everything would go since I just had a baby 6 weeks ago. I decided to go slow and extremely easy. My body felt great but my lungs were a little rusty. I figure a mile is still a mile though.

I ran 1.5 miles today while David was home for lunch to watch Grant. It was already really hot and humid and I about died! It was kind of a rough run for me but I still made it, 14:35, not too fast but it sure kicked my butt!!!

Ran outside, super muggy and gross. 9:25 and 8:55 were my times. I'm still trying to figure out my forerunner.

My friends want me to run a 5k with them on Saturday but since I just started running like 2 weeks ago I don't really feel that I can do it. David keeps telling me I can so that motivates me some.

It was a little cooler on my run today. I took Grant out for the first time actually running in the stroller. We've always just gone on walks but the doc said his stroller was fine to run with. Wahoo! He just slept the whole way while I huffed and puffed along. I'm planning on doing the 5k on Saturday. Yes I realize I am a slow poke but what better excuse to be slow...just had a baby! BTW pushing a stroller is HARD!

I was going to run with some friends but plans fell through so I ended up running it on my own which was still nice. The race started at 9:00 so it was a little hot but still ok.

It was a little cooler today which made for a fantastic run. It's harder t0 push a stroller with the wind but it still felt great to get out! A little slow but that's ok.
