Total Distance

2.00

I know y'all are emencely (sp?) jealous of my mileage thus far. But does it count that my son has a broken leg and I spent all morning in this new town trying to find a doctor that will see us before our insurance runs out?

I had a pretty good mile run this morning. I actually jogged the whole way at 5.0...then the kids kept coming in and well I couldn't finish. So tonight after dinner in the freezing cold I took them for a walk. My youngest- the one with the broken foot screamed the whole way.

Tonight I was going to hop on the treadmill and watch some tv but instead sat and read blogs.

I have lost four pounds this week, though i don't think the Mike and Ikes that are bringing me some sweet comfort tonight are helping any.

Family challenges can really affect your running. Any little run is better than none! (Unless it's a scheduled day off of course.) Hang in there!

Great job getting the running in. It is so hard with kids, especially when they will not stay away from the treadmill. I am always afraid they will get too close and lose a finger!!

Welcome to the blog!

I admire your efforts and love your goals, they are similar to mine. One mile at a time, you'll make it. You're doing great!

Good job getting miles in where you can. Moms are busy!

Oh, love Mike and Ikes!

Way to get yourself on the treadmill Corrine! I've found that's the hardest part-once I actually get on it I don't care how long I go for(for the most part), as long as it's something. You're getting a new habit formed that you'll love....eventually. Or so I'm told...
