Personal:

I am a mother to 3 handsome, active little boys (11, 7 and 5) and a beautiful baby girl (Just turned one in March). I'm married to TylerS (also on this blog) and work as a Mortgage Loan officer where I have been for almost 14 years now. I love my job and the people that I work with. I love being a mom and the inspiration I get from Running! Life is busy and entertaining, It's great!

So, I went out for a run with Heidi W this morning.  We got to sleep in and start at 8:00 which to me was quite dreamy!!! However, it is getting harder and harder to run and I am NOT dealing very well with it!! I just can't seem to breath!! And my baby shifts and lays on my sciatic and it causes some pretty serious pain down my legs! I got home and told Tyler that I need to quit drinking soda (a new addiction that cured morning sickness and now I can't seem to quit) because I think it is contributing to the loss of oxygen when running but Tyler's response was "Ummmm, you don't think it has something to do with the fact that you have a baby in your belly?".  It made me laugh.  But then I went into my room and had a little moment!! It is hard! I want to keep running but is my body already telling me enough??? I know that it will all be worth it when my beautiful baby is born but it's sure hard to think about taking the next 5 months off with no running (remaining pregnancy and recovery).  And in the past I have been able to run further into my pregnancy and I really really know that it helps with recovery so I am trying to focus on that.  I probably just need to try to slow my pace down significantly and do what I can (especially through the winter) because I don't want to just give up and stop doing everything.  I don't know?!?! I guess we will see what happens! I will try to remain positive in the meantime because aside from this.............everything else is pretty darn great!!!
