I went to my hometown yesterday to spend the day with my mommy on her birthday and didn't get home until 1:00 last night. By the time I got kids in bed and my teeth brushed it was 2:00 and then despite having the hardest time staying awake while driving, I then couldn't get to sleep until around 3:00.  Needless to say, I had a difficult time waking up this morning.   I slept in until the kids got up around 8:00. I lay in bed looking out my window at the river trail and got so excited for it to warm up and be able to get out there again regularly. 

Finally I got in my mileage during baby's nap time on my home tm.

On a sidenote, my husband signed up for the 50 mile Antelope Island Buffalo run on March 26th. NUTSO!

4.5 miles walking at a 8% grade.  I think it might have been harder than running even.  I have me some sore feet so I might be doing a lot more of this in the next few weeks.  I hope they get better soon.  I told my hubbie I would pace him the last 17 miles of his 50 miler.

7 miles around the River Trail a couple of times.  My feet and buttock feel so much better when I run outside rather than on the treadmill.

Lots of stupid dog owners out because it was semi-warm.  It wouldn't be so bad if they would put leashes on them.  Ahhhhh!

120 minutes on elliptical with Silly Lilly.  Then I am counting the 1.5 walk to school and back as some calorie burnage too.

3 miles of this was some "speed" work and now I am feeling hurt again in my buttock. What a pain in the rear this is.

8.5 miles on the home tm.  I read a good book while I ran because the book rest on my treadmill works really well.  It made the time fly by. I seriously felt like I was only on there 20 minutes.
