Nothing like a nice little 10k to get your week started off!! I had a hard time getting out of bed this morning but made it up and out to meet Heidi W for a little jaunt! We ran New Leaf today which is a good mix of flat and up hill!!  Looking forward to this week's running and getting some good miles in before Boston.  3 weeks from today!! It's a bit surreal to think about and to be right honest, is freaking me out!! I am not ready!!

PM: So my cute little Evan has eagerly signed himself up for the 300 and 400 meter races for his first ever Track Meet to come in May and therefore, wanted to go to the track tonight to start training.  Tyler of course embraced it as an opportunity for FHE tying in the whole Physical Fitness perspective, etc. So, as a family, we headed down to the High School tonight to run and exercise as a family.  I took scooters for my younger boys (which they loved by the way.  Tracks are fun to ride around but the ramps going up and down to the bleechers are even funner), and then Tyler and I ran with Evan.  Tyler mostly worked with him on breathing, form, etc. while I just ran around watching it all, etc.  I was so darn proud of my little guy.  His first 400 meters he ran at a 8:00 pace, then took it down to a 7:29 and by the last lap, he was down to a 6:30ish pace.  I actually tried to race him and couldn't keep up! Must take after his daddy!! I hope that we keep it up and have him all trained come the track meet!!! I ended up running 3 miles at the track and then decided to run home to get in a couple of extra miles.  As I got closer to home I realized I was only at about 4.8 and that if I were to go 5.8, it would round out my mileage for the day. However, of course then I got to 5.8 and of course had to just round it up to 6.0.  So the mileage doesn't make a lot of sense today but..............at least it was some good mileage!!

I had a early morning meeting (no exercise) followed by a late day at work (no exercise) followed by running kids around and a RS party that went until 8:15 (no exercise) followed by the night routine and kids not wanting to go to bed (10:00 bedtime which was supposed to be 9:00), followed by my husband getting home at 10:30 from a late church meeting.................I am tired and just want to go to bed :) No exercise~

Heidi's and I went out for a little longer run then we typically do during the week.  The Schedule called for a 7 mile route so we decided to include a bit of hill work and do Harry's hill again!! We ran the same route I ran on Saturday afternoon.  It was harder for me this morning so I didn't feel as well but it's awful nice being done and knowing that I got 7.5 miles in today! This crazy March weather. I can never tell what to wear in the morning.  I always over dress or underdress, I can't seem to get it right. Today I overdressed and ended up taking off my gloves, hat and one shirt. Luck be had, it started snowing right when we ended! Crazy March :).  

AP: 8:53 (I didn't feel bad about this concidering it takes into account the hill(s) but hope to speed it up a bit over the next couple of months :).

We encountered some snow, strong winds and hills, but made it home safe and ............tired!! Great way to start a Friday morning!

Wish I could say that I was able to get out today but I just wasn't.  The Easter Bunny visited us early, then we had Easter Breakfast, made sugar cookies, went to 2 parties, cleaned up after one of the parties at our house, had a friend over to visit, Tyler went to the Priesthood Session, and I went to dinner with the boys and my friend.  She left at 10:00 and I was simply too tired to go down on the TM.  Does an hour of "Lets Dance" on the Wii count as exercise???
