I ran 17 miles today. YAY me! Well, I have to be completely honest and admit I did wimp out. Not about the distance, I did finish 17. The first half was AWESOME and I was feeling great. Then I turned around and headed back home. OH.....MY.....GOSH. The wind was so bad and so very cold that at mile 13 I called my hubby and asked him to come pick me up. I know, freak I am a wimp. I know I could have finished out there in that freezing and windy hell, but I just didn't want to. Anyways, I went home and changed my clothes and went to the Y and finished my last four on the treadmill. It was seriously the hardest four miles ever. Oh well, I got 17 in today.... YAY me!
I have decided to send back the Mizunos I just recently bought. I ran in them twice and the first time was good, the second time was not so good. I got a huge blister and I just knew these shoes were NOT going to work for me. So last night while on my hot date with the hubby (not really hot, but nice to be out and away from the kids) I went and picked up the Asics Kayano 15. I did something that I have never done and something that I shouldn't admit, but I will. I ran in them today for my 17 miles. I know, naughty. BUT....just listen to me..... I was in heaven. Really I was. I had one tiny little spot that rubbed raw but that was it. YAY... I have happy feet!
The other night we went to the UK ladies basketball game. My daughter was being recognized for her perfect attendance since the first of Jan. She was able to go down to the court at half time with a few other kids and have her name called and meet the mascot (wildcat). I just wanted to share this picture of my little cuties. This picture shows how different their personalities are. The 8 year old (almost) is shy and very timid, and my 3 year old is a crazy, outspoken wild child. I just adore them both.
