Happy New Year

Seems like I'm about 10 days behind on this, whoops. Where does the time go? Oh, I know! It goes to running, kids & holidays, lol! I'm happy to report that this has been a very good week. Apparently it's only Thursday, but I guess since it's the end of the year I feel like it's the end of the week. I ran a good 5 miles on Sunday, Monday was a rest day, Tuesday we spent 3 hours hiking at a pretty decent pace with Scarlett on my back, and yesterday was 4 miles. I had this big idea that for the last day of the year I wanted to get up super early and run up diamond head... last night my legs said, "No!". They're pretty tired and honestly so I am; I still very much plan on accomplishing this goal though. Stay tuned to see when it happens! I'm feeling stronger and stronger. I've got my pace at around 10 minute miles consistently, which is nice to be back at. At the end of this fantastic 2009 I have to say I've come a really long way. At the beginning of this year I was pregnant and exercising regularly but I'd pretty much quit running. And here I am at the end of the year 3 lbs away from my post-pregnancy weight ( I did end up jumping on the Wii Fit) and well on my way to my first half-marathon. I have so many dreams for 2010 and running and over-all body well-being. I should write them down, maybe I'll do that tomorrow. The 1st seems like a good day to log my goals for all to hold me accountable, lol! Happy New Year!!
