Well, after training for about 8 weeks (including quarter marathon), Race Day is almost here! Running the Nationwide Half Marathon this Sunday at 7:30 a.m.
However, I am excited-- a little nervous--okay, a lot nervous, but feeling more excited than I did before the quarter marathon in September!
How do you fit running in with two little kids? Especially long runs? Well, I used to run at night - still do, but for long runs, I found running in the early morning was nice. You got it out of the way and you felt great. So I did most of those early Sunday morning. I really like when I am super motivated and I get the easy miles in the morning before Brandon goes to work. It makes me a much nicer mom in the morning. he. he.

I envy you. I desperately want early mornings to be my routine, but it's so dang hard to get out of bed in the morning.
I am so excited for you! 13.1 BABY!!!
So proud of you, Erin! I'm with you on the early morning runs. (except my biggest one is 2 miles) I just got back into the running groove a week or so ago, and while I HATE getting up, I'm always so glad I did.
Well, today after being up until 1 am last night, I ran this evening!:) 5 hours of sleep does not make for a happy mom.
Thanks guys!
What an accomplishment. Hope it goes well for you. Your girls will be so proud of you even if you are grouchy at them sometimes :) Their big beautiful smiles will be cheering you on.
