Ooooh! Momma's fast!

It's been a few days since I posted. Thanks to the weather, our internet has been a little sketchy. So let me catch you up...

Sunday I laced up my new Scott trail shoes (Thanks to Trax!) and hit the road, and the trail. 6 miles of farm land and asphalt. I'm not quite sure what was going on with my body that day but it felt like I was trying to run through knee high mud! Each one of my legs felt like they weighed 100 pounds each! I thought I'd never finish. But I did and I wrapped up the week with 14 miles.

Tuesday I was able to run outside since all the kids were in school. I made it back to the house just in time to fit in 5 miles (along with a 35 mi/hr head wind) before the clouds opened up and dumped a bunch of rain. This would be the same storm that carried tornado that touched down in Simpson county! Whew! Good thing I got that run out of the way early!

Today, I felt like a Jill-of-all-trades! One of my daily mantras is "I can do it all!" (though somebody may not have any clean underwear) Today was one of the days I tried very hard to prove my mantra right. Here goes: Up early to get the kids ready (lucky to have hubby's help with this part,) off to drop Roddick at school, drive to the next school where we have to wait 30 min before doors open, this making time for me to sew a button on Salem's shirt, take Salem and Paisley into school, drive to BG to GMC dealership to take Yukon in for recall fix on door handles, run from there to my turn around point (MapMyRun was supposed to tell me where there the 2.5 mile mark was,) run back to dealership, realize MMR had messed up SO today I logged 6 miles, Yukon still not ready, into the bathroom where I took a spit bath (needed in order to be able to sit among other people and them not pass out,) 45 min later Yukon ready, stop at shoe store to get new gym shoes (and super cute boots for Peanut,) drive back to Franklin to get the little ones, pick up a few items at the DG market, get in line to pick up Roddick, while waiting get a few subs needed for classes at the gym, drive home, bathe (everyone's thankful for this!,) homework time, get supper ready, get items ready for the meeting I had with my instructors tonight (best instructors ever!!,) go to gym (eat on the way,) have a meeting, go home, kiss my babies, hang up clothes, get in bed, & BLOG! I'm exhausted just writing it!

The best thing about the MapMyRun messing up?? It told me my average speed was 96 mi/hr! Funny! But was it talking about my run, or was it talking about the speed at which I go through my day??
