I am a bore

I've got this feeling lately that my posts are getting quite repetitive and boring. I don't really do anything new and I'm not in the middle of some awful attempt at fast fat squashing so there really isn't anything to blog about.

The last two nights, I've been outside jogging with my 8 year old. She is running the mile youth run tonight and I am running with her. She is a bit apprehensive because she doesn't know what to expect but I know she will have fun. The only bugger is she still has this horrible cough and one of the worst stuffed up snotty noses ever! Poor thing, her nose is so red and raw from tissue. But still, she charges on. That's my girl!!

Once again, when Eden and I got back home, I went out again. With my dog this time. Although now that I think about it, I probably shouldn't have taken her this soon after her surgery. She did ok. Not great. She still tries to lunge at people and other dogs. Andreas thought maybe once she was running she wouldn't, but not the case unfortunately. That's alright though. I don't mind going out myself. It has felt so great to be outside in the sun, getting sweaty. I just hope I don't get burnt out working out hard in the morning and then running at night. But now that the weather is supposed to turn rainy again starting tomorrow, I suppose I'll be done running until the sun shines again.

The Fargo marathon is this Saturday. Hopefully the rain will hold off but it's not looking good. According to our meteorologist, it's supposed to dump on us that morning. Yuk! But those runners get into such a zone that it won't phase them for the most part. I want to wish my sister Sue and her friend Mary good luck on their first ever 10k (50 and fabulous - go ladies!!). And also good luck to my friend Carmen (aka runnergirl) on her first ever full marathon. Although, she is such a machine, she doesn't need luck. She will rock it for sure! Have FUN and enjoy it!

I got pumped just walking in the dome to pick up my daughter's youth run packet, the vibe is so exciting!! It's a big commitment to train for one of those events and sometimes it can feel like a pain in the ass (I am only speaking from my past 1/2 marathon training) but when it's race day, it's all worth it. And THAT is what you train for. Have a blast runners!
