There are a lot of races that I would like to run this year (the first one is in a month - why am I not training yet?).
I just did the math for all the entry fees...
It's almost $500.
Don't tell my husband.

Last Minute Fail
Saturday morning, I woke up with the urge to race a 5K. Nevermind the fact that I haven't run since the middle of January.
So, 20 minutes before the race was the start, I was bundled up in my running gear and heading over to the start. It was FREEZING. Temps in the low 20s with a VERY unfriendly wind.
Leaving out all of the dialog - the idiots were out of NUMBERS and shirts. I was told that I could run, but I would have to time myself.
So I turned around, got in my car and drove home to my warm house and baby girl.
You would think that since I was all geared up for a run that I would have done SOMETHING once I got home, right? Nah. I got in the shower and moved on with my day.
Anyway - Happy Valentine's Day. I bet you wish you had a cute Valentine like mine, dont you?

Three Things Thursday
I am having so much fun being a mommy. Seriously - it is the best.
I'm FINALLY getting a treadmill!... in March - after I get my bonus.

If a Woodchuck...
According to Wikipedia - the groundhog is also a woodchuck. I had no idea.
It's 6ยบ here today. I'm looking forward to spring. But I don't think it's going to come any earlier than March 20th.
I haven't run in 2 weeks. And I won't be running this week or weekend. Being a working mom is a hard adjustment for me, and right now I still just want to spend all of my free time with my baby. I'll get back into running. I have a few races in the next couple of months that I really want to do... and I will.
My birthday is on Sunday. I accept cash, giftcards and cookies.
I'm turning 26. So I was just thinking... maybe I should run 26.2 before I turn 27? Probably not, but it's something to think about.
