good morning..

birds woke me UP!!!!...i was going to sleep in..and go later..but the dang birds were chirping right outside my window.... so..ran 3 miles like the dogs were after me...beat 2 walkers and an 80 yr old man..think i can run a marathon?...no mp3 this morning, which was good...nice think time..and pretty good run...wish i had gone further but there are 2 boys that need to see my face before they get off to school...i canNOT believe that this is the last day of march...!!!

stormy stormy night...

MADE IT JUST IN TIME TO MISS THE STORM.....!!!...and I feel good..not because the run was good...but because i have been sooo tired this week and i did it...I have had a time running for long periods of time...just haven't wanted to do it. NO endurance....no stamina...so HOW am I going to run 26.2 miles...or a half marathon...hahaha....need some something...it is frustrating..when last week i thought things were going pretty good....do you think we could do like the cartoon characters and strap something on our backs and fly the marathon....bet we would win....

maybe not..huh............well keep on blogging..hope it won't rain..cause i only did 3 miles...and i didn't run all of those..so wanted to do more in the am....bye for now

starry night..

Busy monday...12hrs...babies coming into this world...left and right...

The stars are all over the place. Plane lights twinkling along with them up there....me wishing i had some great place to go...but tonight this place was a good place to be...beautiful...and i needed the 'think' time as well as the run.

3 miles...sore from the run Saturday. Needed to ice but didn't. May go get in the cold tub. Puts a new light on freezing your @$$ off...bad bad bad girl..i know....but it does!

now...i know pizza is not the best runners diet..but hey..I am hungry....and this is available....!!!!...the run was good at least.....not so sluggish even after tons of patients...kind of a relief...stress relief....plg

Easter Sunday

Didn't run today.....fixed the FINEST Sunday dinner.....yum, yum, yum....the kids at church all dressed up in their Easter outfits...and excited......probably all the dang chocolate they had before they got there....but it doesn't matter.....all those eager faces are nice to see.....enthusiasm...is contagious, you know?......we are marathoners....i hope i am.....i keep thinking yesterday was not so good...but surely tomorrow will be better running....have a good one..no jog but one blog.........

spelling

hey...do you know how to die eggs or dye eggs...did you kill them or color them..sometimes i cannot spell....g'nite to all

here comes peter cotton tail...coming around the bunny trail...

Have you got your eggs died..and your stuff done......I have gone to the grocery store...got to fix my stuff for tomorrow...cause it will be too much to do in the morning.........

the run this morning for me was pretty bad..mainly couldn't get in a rhythm....like my legs were stuck...and could not breathe......tired...ate late...and had a huge diet pepsi.....couldn't sleep....and then woke up too early...and sooooooooooooooooo whatever...tomorrow..is another day........and hopefully it will be bETTER!!!!....I wogged 6 miles.....(mostly walked...)....anyway...my food is calling me to cook......Have a good Easter....

JELLY BEANS....anyone

I am taking a poll...who likes starburst sour jelly beans...? They are almost as good as jelly belly's...the spring ones...pastels...can't remember the flavors but they are good.

Just ran 3 miles..no supper so felt the need for sugar...so..the jelly beans were near by...........thinking of a pasta salad with the easter ham that i bought this afternoon....

back to the jelly beans think i can take them with me on the marathon ....or is that a no no.....

glad i am not running tomorrow...i am sick of it....today...didn't really do so well...for one thing..just felt like i was warmed up....but it is dark out there..and i knew i needed to get home....so...didn't do more than the 3...but for anyone who hasn't poked their head our...go look at the moon!!

troubled blogger

something is going on with my blogging....did run last night..4 miles....not tonight...and no xtrain...tomorrow is another day....

something mysterious.......

work work work....

MONDAYS....YUCK

Mondays....sometimes don't you wish they could just throw mondays off of the calendar.....I am not ready to go back to work...still have ski clothes to put up.......and housework to do....not...!!!!...

Ran 3 miles in 30 min...haven't been getting up as early...and didn't realize..at 5:30 the sun is up....or at least it is daylight today.....no sun....not when i got up..and none now either.....it is gray....pushed me on around the lake....making me wish for the sand ...and those waves rolling in.....and suntan lotion....and seashells.....and little kids playing at the waters edge.....a good place to go today.....me in my world.....There is a watercolor at the Wyatt gallery....only about 2000.00.....ha....makes me think of that....she says i can pay 25 dollars a month on it..and it is mine....don't know about that....seems like along time to pay 25 and I feel like i am stealing it......so...guess i will just have to wait......til...one day........

I may still try to go to the y....today....since i didn't do the 40 - 50 min..i was supposed to do.....thought my friend would call..and we would go...but i think she has stood me up......I will chastise her when i get to work...but i haven't really cared...felt good to get back to my early morning thing.....cool...and comfortable..now...wish it would stay 55 degrees forever.....at least from 5-6am....wouldn't that be neat!!!!......

well...cappucino is calling...and a little yogurt.....got to start the week off better...than jellybeans......and water....anybody...like Starburst jelly beans....?...Jelly Belly's are the best to me...but my boys..well..they like Starburst..so I am outnumbered...jelly bellys for special occasions....guess spring break was the occasion..cause i have eaten them all week long...but now..i am a serious marathoner..so guess i will have to kick the habit at least for a few days......

til next time...plg

UHHUH...!!!!!

Yep....I feel goooood....!!!!!..Just ran 3 miles.....it is dark out there...and me and my mp3...i know....but i just had to go..and i needed the music.....it is windy..and cool....and the clouds are racing past that moon....and a few stars are peaking out behind those clouds.....HE is looking down over me and saying..hey girl..you ARE a MARAthoner..!!and I am thinking...yep...I am....
hope your week is good....
full moon..coming..so guess those babies will be coming into the world.....work work work
and Alice..i didn't break a thing...and we miss your face....when will you be back...?.....patti

P.S.

The skiing was GREAT...and I didn't break a thing...!!!!

YEAH!!!!

I am so excited..!!!...We ran 4 miles...and walked 1 today at the group run....that is the 2nd time I have done that...and I was not sure I would be able to since I had not done anything but ski all week....gave a great feeling of accomplishment...and it made me feel like a MARATHONER!!!! Enjoyed our lunch with Linda, Matt, Robin and Mark...AND came home to a bunch of boys wanting to go fishing..so just HAD to go get some crickets and they fished for 3 or 4 hrs...and didn't catch a thing...but had a great time....Rusty my 12 yr old says the bags are 'cool' Mark...and I thinks so too....You have done a good job getting all the stuff and these folks organized...thanks....plg

Colorado skiing

going to go snow skiing....yeah...i think...my kids can ski really well...and i cannot...wish me luck...this will be my crosstraining for the week....the meeting was so nice today..BEAUTIFUL weather...and everyone so nice....I enjoyed meeting some of the people i read about...I ran 2 miles....i have been out of the loop for the last 2 weeks....but plan to get back to it this week...after i get back from this trip....found someone to go to the y with me on Monday and Thursdays....almost had her talked into doing this marathon with me...but she chickened out...wish she would...but at least i have someone to do the crosstraining with...i needed a buddy..cause...i haven't been doing it .....feel like it is time to really get serious.....so here goes....hope you all have a great spring break....plg
