Ran a total of 5.5 but had my walking warmup and some other walking in there of .5 miles.  Very tired at first but felt better esp. once i started heading down the canyon.  Started at wills with brune, let him get in the river because it was to hot out for him.  Broke out in hives after and my eyes are killing me, stupid allergies.

Went out at 9 a.m. which ended up being way to hot for me.  I did a little walking warmup before I ran, but was super tired.  Came home and cooled off in front of the fan for about 10 mins and did 15 mins on the elliptical follow by WT upper and abs.

weight is 145 lbs. which means I have gained 20 so far.  I hope to make it another month running, we will see.

Once again I went out to late and it was hot, but I did bring water this time.  I felt decent today and ran into a nice girl and ran and talked to her for about .5 miles.  She just did the Ogden marathon her 1st one.  I was going to come home and do the elliptical but was tired from the heat so I did weights upper and abs.

If any one want to meet for dinner, me and some others are going to meet at Cafe Peasan ( this is a great new Italian rest. from the people that started the Cafe Rio's,  My husband built it and the food is great , all made fresh and from scratch).  We are planning on meeting on friday at 6 p.m.  it is in Orem on Center st and State st. in the Smith's parking lot.  Any who we would love to see you their.

I took my kids and dog up the canyon for a run, it was a lot cooler up their than it is in the city plus we had a cool front come in last night.  It was a cool 63 degrees at 9:30 instead of 80 like it was the last few times I have gone out.  Felt good and came home and did the elliptical for 20 mins.

did the elliptical for 40 mins and then WT upper.

To run the half or not that is the question, I want to do it but I know if I do I will be super sore in the pubic bone again.  That pain has gone away, which means I won't be running for a while or not at all until after the baby is born.  I don't know why I have this pull to do it, I know I will be slow, I don't even have a # but can get a ride to the start.  On the other hand I really would like to see the super fasty's at the finish.  Oh geez what to do?

Took Brune up on the trails, it was nice and cool out.  I only did minimal walking on the uphill which the last couple of times I have walked the whole mile long steep uphill.  Felt good but was tired at the end.

I had an awesome time being a spectator at the UV marathon and half.  Cheered my guts out.  Was a nice cool morning with a little rain at the beginning but great at the end.  Saw some great preformances, including Paul missing the turn along with the guy about 3 sec. ahead of him.  He stopped and let the guy get back in front of him and finished about 1 sec.; behind.  Fast men and women in the full and half.   Fun day, I ran my sister Ericka in the last 2.25 miles.  I was going to do 3 but she was so ahead of her time I didn't make it where I wanted.  She came in at 3:49 a 25 min. pr for her.  So very proud of her she has trained well.  So glad I didn't run the half and just watched.

Got up before 8 this morning to get out the door and take advantage of this cool morning.  I had a great run minimal cramping in my feet and none in my calves, which is rare.  It was a nice run.  Came home and did WT upper and abs.

27 weeks 3rd trimester yes!! 

Went  up on the trails, it is so green and pretty up their.  Had a good run although it is harder up at a higher elevation but I guess it always is no matter what.  Very little walking on the up hill, just the super steep stuff where it is probably the same if you run or walk.

I was tired today, probably form the heat.  I went out at 9:30 and it was hot.  I opted to just go short, legs tired and pubic bone a little sore.  Came home and did 25 mins on the elliptical and abs plus some good stretching.

Woke up early to meet Michelle and McKenzie at the Payson pool to pool run for 63 mins.  It was well pool running, had to let my belt out quite a bit from the last time I used it.  I really enjoyed talking with the girls, I miss them.

Met at Luz's house and ran with her and Catherine on the river trail.  I was so pretty down their.  Really enjoyed the run and ran at a faster pace cause I was with people.  My feet were the only thing that was buggy they were crampy the whole way, if it weren't for my feet I feel like I could have gone longer.  But 6 was good:)

1:00:10/9:30 

Off to california tomorrow morning.  Will be back next friday.

Another day at Lego Land so no running or else I would be toast.  Luckily we have had nice cool weather hear so it hasn't been bad (between 65-70 degrees.)

Ran down along the beach again, I was very, very tired.  It was hotter and the sun was out earlier.  Today was just a hang out and play around the hotel day before our long drive home.

Drove home yesterday, my sons puck count was 6, 3 on the way down and 3 on the way back.  We hit bad traffic on the drive down from Vegas to LA, all the gamblers going home from their weekend of throwing their money away.  On the drive home we hit a hang up after St. George, bad managed road construction.  They had 7 miles of road shut down to 1 lane and they were only working on probably a quarter mile section.  It took us 2 hours to get from SG to Cedar city.  But we made it home and was very happy to see my doggy.  Didn't do anything today but take a 3 hour nap after my hypnobabies class.  I was so tired from our trip.
