<p>Crap night of sleep is making for a SLOW morning here. I did get one project finished and out the door, but no where near as much as I wanted to do. And I probably need a nap before I take on anything else. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Have fun tonight peeps!</p>

<p>Hi, gals. Happy New Years Eve! </p>
<p> </p>
<p>I haven't been able to motivate myself for a run yet. But I gotta do it. I'm currently only 0.5 miles behind my yearly record from 2010, so I <strong>gotta</strong> do something. At this rate, I'll be saving it for the last minute...</p>

<p>12 miles in the books for me. I was scheduled to do my long run tomorrow, but we are supposed to have 45 mph winds and "feels like" -1 for the temp. Oof. Doesn't sound good to me.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Off to clean up, get some work done, and get ready to have some fun!</p>

<p>With about 10 hours left in 2011, I passed my yearly mileage record. I did 7.3 miles today. That might be a little low considering I have a marathon in two weeks, but I didn't want to tire myself out too much with the 5k race tomorrow. So here are my totals for the year:</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Running: 1620.0 miles (Previous record from 2010: 1613.2)</p>
<p>Swimming: 8.3 miles (Not a record)</p>
<p>Biking: 0.0 miles (Not a record)</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I guess I don't know if we're doing goals for 2012, but I think my goal will be to beat all those numbers...</p>

<p>Nice work boB!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Happy Runnerversary Cus!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I ate some pineapple and now have a gut ache. (I really want to barf right now.) And we're supposed to go to Donna's across the street in half an hour. I need some stretchy pants. blech.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>No idea what my totals for the year are. My running volume has been all over the place depending on if Chiro asked me to take it easy or not, or how much it hurt. Hopefully 2012 will be a better back year.</p>

<p>Good morning, everyone. I'm trying to find my misplaced motivation. Stepped on the scale this morning, knowing I've gained some lbs in the past two months, and thought "Just as long as it's not over X amount". <br><br>
I was 2lbs OVER that amount. Ugh.<br><br>
Yet, although I'm dressed for it, and it is a gorgeous day outside, I can't seem to find the means to get up and go. Meh. I know I need to go, and that once it's done i"ll be glad I did, but at this very moment... I don't wanna!!!</p>

<p>Beautiful day today! Great day for a race. And tons of people showed up. Probably close to 1000. We'll see after the restults get posted. I ran the 5k in about 22:30, which is far from a PR, but I'm not sure if I'll be getting any more PRs. I felt good, so I'll take it. Nice way to start off the year...</p>

<p>7.09 done. ouch. longest run since the Turkey day half marathon.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Bummed out a little here. Confirmed plans yesterday with my neighbor to head over around 3/3:30ish this afternoon for my intro-to-horseriding. It had been only a tenative item all week, but confirmed as of last night. Came home from my run to find a voice mail saying "A girlfriend invited me to watch the game with her, so we can do a short lesson today, if you can come around 12:30 or 1:00...." (it was 1:15 when I came home.)</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I am sure she didn't mean for it to come across that way, but at the moment, I kind of feel like the conveneince-friend. /sigh. I know there are worse things, but dangit.. I was so excited about the plans for the afternoon.<br><br>
Guess it'll just be me, the dogs, and a falcons game for the day's plans.</p>

<p>Sorry to hear that <strong>Ail.</strong></p>
<p> </p>
<p>Ooof - I am all kinds of hurty this morning. We had WAY too much fun last night.
</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Everyone has left and I have a quiet house for about 30 more minutes. Doing some work and watching the Packer game. So glad I did my long run yesterday. It is cold here with 40+ mph winds. Crazy. It is super icy too.... Looks like I will hit the treadmill later....</p>

<br><br><p>And it's come my way. Ran 8 this morning, with a beastly headwind on the way out. It was just an ugly run. Glad I got it in though.</p>

<p>We're just back from a gift exchange with my aunts, uncles & cousins; it was the last holiday gathering we had to go to. Really looking forward to being a hermit for a bit.</p>

<p>Whoa - anyone watching the Falcons game? The Bucs look horrible. 42 points in the first 20 minutes? Sheesh.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Speaking of football, how 'bout those Packers. Nice to see our second string can play.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I need someone to come over and take down all the Christmas decorations.......</p>

<p>Yep. And my Falcons started slacking on the 2nd half. Ugh. I'm just happy that we're not playing the Saints again in the playoffs!!!</p>

Just finished 30 day shred. First attempt, so no weights. It wasn't as bad as I expected, but I'm confident I will feel it tomorrow!</div>
</div>
<p><br>
this is how i felt as well then, the second day i had trouble with stairs and getting through the workout again. lmao.</p>
<p> </p>
<p> i'm on level 3, and modifying it big time. the thing is that we runners don't ever engage in explosive, power moves so even someone as fit and in good shape like brandy will be challenged.</p>
<p> </p>
<p> busy weekend. AK was the devil's spawn yesterday, not sure why. teething? cold? crabby for no reason whatsoever? i almost cried out of frustration and bedtime could not have come earlier.i swear i was staring at the clock, willing it to move faster. lmao. then, today she was as angelic as can be. sooooooooo weird.</p>
<p> </p>
<p> DH has been going through this crazy cleaning "binge". hes scrubbed down the entire place in the past month or so. i hope it continues. LMAO. i think a huge factor is that we bought <a href="http://www.max-vacuum.com/assets/product/450/450/1/dy-dc35mf-2_a599e8cab8db2c66b7401aaef7f86615.jpg" target="_blank">this</a> new hand held baby dyson and he absolutely adores it. he vaccumms constantly. like, a different room each day. its great!</p>
<p> </p>
<p> tongiht we had some of his cousins over for dinner and had yummy fish tacos. we also had corn on the cob soaked in butter and parmesean cheese with cayenne pepper which was a huge hit. all washed down by margaritas. yum. i had my max and am off to bed. NIGHT!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>HAPPY NEW YEAR, friends!!!!</p>
