Easter Weekend

The boys were out of school on Good Friday, so I took them to visit my parents on Thursday night. We stayed there through Sunday. Unfortunately Stephen didn't get to go, because he had to work.

On Friday morning I decided to run. But Mom and Dad live in an EXTREMELY hilly neighborhood. Like almost straight up hills! Not just a gradual incline, more like running up a ladder! So everytime I have tried to run these hills with my husband, I've had to stop at the top of them to catch my breath. Wellllllll, this time I ran for over 40 minutes straight, NO STOPPING! I went the wrong way to apparently, because I ended up running up hills almost the entire time. It seemed like as soon as I got up one, I was going up another. But I was so thrilled that I FINALLY ran these hills withOUT stopping! Talk about a MAJOR accomplishment!

Then my long run was supposed to be Sunday, but I knew I wouldn't have time to run Sunday, so I ran on Saturday evening instead. I ran over an hour, of these same hills, withOUT stopping! No Breaks! WooHoooo!!!! I felt Great! Energized! Thrilled! Empowered! :-)

Sunday-no running.

Monday I ran 5+ miles on my treadmill.

today, we'll see. I've got lots of reports to type up and appraisals to measure this afternoon. but hopefully i can squeeze a quick run in.
Later!
