I manage a country homestead and the lives of my 4 babies ages 10,8,5 and 3. I LOVE TO RUN and NEED to keep healthy and fit for my SANITY!! Seriously....All problems are solved when I am running.

Making MY health a priority allows me to be the mother and wife that I need to be for them.

2 Days to Go!!!

2 days to go and I'm getting pretty excited! I am PETRIFIED to run as I don't want anything to happen to my body!

I went for a short 30 minute run yesterday while the older girls biked beside me. I had to laugh at how fast 30 minutes went by.

Today I had my last Chiropractor appointment and booked an hour long massage for myself. This afternoon I cross trained on the bike while the kids were in swimming lessons.

Tomorrow I run another 30 minutes and will stretch and do my core workout.

Saturday I leave for Ottawa and all the excitement. I get to watch one of my closest friends cross the 5km finish line for the first time and enjoy a late night pasta dinner. The excitment of watching her cross will be just as great as when I cross Sunday. I know how much this means to her and it will be no different.

Sunday morning 9am will be here before I know it.

I'm ready. I've been ready for this for what feels like years. Now where did I put my shoes??

You made me cry. I'm so proud of you. I'm so proud of me. This is one of the best things I've ever done for myself, and you were a huge part of making this investment in myself.
Love you and can't wait to have gluten free spicy pasta with you. xoxoxoxoxoxox
