I am married with 3 lovely children 26, 18, &12and a dog named Koda and a cat named Blue.  Love to run and be outside.  I believe that if you think you can do it and you work hard enough any thing is possible.   Life flashes by in the blink of an eye, enjoy it while it last and remember there is a lot more to life than running. I coach high school swim and love it!

Went for a walk today and tried to run for a half mile, I felt ok running but it tightens my hammy right back up.  I am not sure what to do?  I am tired of spending money on myself for this.  And as long as I just crosstrain it seem fine but I want to run.  Maybe just more patience or maybe I will never be a runner again.  20 mins of yoga.

Hang in there kiddo, you'll get there! sometimes the running gods like to try our patience;) Cross-training is a good way to keep fitness if it doesn't drive you crazy!;) Strength training has seemed to help me a lot the last few months maybe you should give it a try.

I'm going to shout an enthusiastic AMEN to Clay's comment.

I know, and most of the time I am okay with it and am really enjoying my little Cole. I am sure my body took a beating form my pregnancy and delivery. I do strength training as well as power yoga, my strength is returning but not as fast as it has in the past. I am blaming a lot of this on age;) I WILL be back.
