5K Drop Out:(

Well, I have officially dropped out of the 5K race I had entered. It was scheduled for May 16th which will be here before you know it. With all the issues I have been going through with my stomach, I was afraid I wouldn't be able to do it. I seem to have a very competitive streak in me. If I had not pulled out of the race, I know I would push myself too hard on days when I should rest. I am still running though. In fact, I just got back from a 3 mile run out a very pretty road where I live. I have had a pretty stressful day and really needed to blow off some steam! My stomach hurt almost the whole time I ran and that is the main reason I pulled out of the race. Sometimes, I can run through the pain and sometimes I can't. Race day probably would've been one of those days that I couldn't push through it and I would have been miserable.

I ended up having to take my daughter to the Dr. today. Will I EVER be able to stay out of a Dr.s office for more than a few days? Anyway, she has strep! Yikes! I am terrified of strep.! The Dr. we go to is about an hour away because I just was not happy with the Dr. I used to take my kids to. While we were out, my car decided it didn't want to start. After several attempts, it finally cooperated and we headed to Wal-Mart to get medicine. Then when leaving Wal-Mart, the car decided not to start again! This time, I had to call my husband. He came and wouldn't you know, it started right up for him. I guess it was just being picky. I finally made it home and was feeling a little agitated and needed to run. I feel better now:)

Still no word from the Dr. about my test I had done Friday.
