So far so good....

After about 4 months of near steady running, I'm right at 6 miles for my long run and kicking in about 15-18 miles per week.....time to kick it up a bit and I'm signed up for the BAA Half, running for Dana Farber again. Giving myself until September to sort out the fundraising letter and strategy.

Now just have to make it through this next week - back at work after two weeks out, have a toddler in total mommy-mode (day care drop off tears, anyone?), interviewing candidates for our office manager position, and, yes, oh yes, I'm on my own parenting this week as Nate heads to San Diego for a conference for 5 days. No am running, getting it done and over with this week....need to actually make it a priority in the afternoons....hahahahahahahaha!

Did though order more sweet, non-bunching between my sweet thighs Patagonia running shorts and trying the zappos route for another set of new shoes....new trail shoes and some minimalist ones to check out...looking forward to dirt road running again after 2 wks on the island....although all I really had to do was get creative and run the middle of the island rather than go around and around. Next year.....:-)

Lovebug ran her longest race by far Sat am at the Peaks Island Road Race...and has the medal to prove it - just like her momma that thing was off her neck within 2 minutes, but she's pretty proud. Oh yes, Nate kicked butt too coming in just under 39 minutes (after walking up a hill too!) 7:47 pace.

Yup, it will be a bit before I catch him again....
