flowers and birds

Love finding the like birds while weeding, and watching all the flower opening. Summer in here!

My 20th half marathon

Well my 20th half marathon was not what I was expecting. I struggled as much as a did when I had done a full. I had to stopped at almost every bathroom on the route. By Mile 7 it was true something was wrong. I had a UTI (bladder infection). After talking to someone at a first ad station and decided I would keep going. I was in pain for awhile and had to walk, and stop at each outhouse. Has a time of 2:25:22 one of my slowest half marathons. I'm happy I push through and didn't quit. Right after the race walked right through the transition station and headed to the hospital (by now I was peeing blood). As I look back on the day I had a fever in the morning, because I woke up all sweaty. The night before I was quite tired, and that's not me. What a day! End of September I'll try it again.

DUMB

Soccer Soccer Soccer

Soccer is all I have been busy with for six weeks now. Monday and Wednesday I have been coaching an awesome group of kids. We have not lost a game all season! Tuesdays and Thursday, my oldest, and youngest both play on different team, so lots of running around. There is about a week and a half left to go. With all of this going on I have been training for a half Marathon. It will be my 20th half, in 4 days. Love all the action, but in to weeks I'll be ready for a break.
