Way Too Long!

Sorry about the long absence! Long story short...our computer crashed and now we have a new one! =) Anyways, training for the half marathon is going ok, not great but good. Life has been getting very busy! BUT that is no excuse! I need to start waking up early to go running then...since my afternoons are now filled with work, making dinner, Bible study, friends and Hubby...all good things, sorry that might have sounded negative but its not! So this morning I got up to take Danny to work and realized the alarm was set but never turned 'On'......oops. I woke up at 6:42am....Danny had to be at work at 7:00am and it take 15 minutes to get there.....soooo we hurried and I had this plan to go running this morning after dropping him off so i just grabbed my shoes and ran out the door (no pun intended) with him and Spike, got into the car and off we go...I started to put my shoes on and realized I grabbed two left running shoes! Hahah I don't do well when rushed! Anyways I decided since today is probably the last nice day here in Colorado that I would take the dog and run in Garden of the Gods to work on some hills. We get there and its a little colder than everywhere else in Colorado Springs....44 degrees. I have run in colder so I thought it would be fine. After the first strenuous hill, I couldn't recover, my lungs burned and there was a ton of phlegm in them, we ended up only doing half. It's ok though! It was nice to get out there and in my next blog I will go over running in cold weather...hah I will try to tkae my own advice! Have a great weekend!
