Dawn and I had to change our initial plans this morning because I had a commitment at 8:30 this morning. So, we just ran a route around her house. The nice thing about where we live is .. you ALWAYS get a hill workout at some point. It just depends on where in your run it ends up. ha!

Monday is our 10 miler! Whoosh! That'll be the longest run I've ever done.

Thank you for your sweet comment, that brightened my day for sure! I looked at your family blog, your family is adorable! What an exciting and eventful life I'm sure to be a mom to 3 little ones who need you so much!

I love children with special needs, I feel truly drawn to them! As I'm sure you know it can be so exhausting but the reward is so great as you watch their daily successes!

How old is your daughter Cami?

So your training for a 1/2 marathon? Good luck..when is it?

Great week, Laura! I hope you are enjoying breaking a new Laura world-record today (Monday). Can't wait to read about it soon, that is, if you have the energy to type about it!

I am also looking forward to hearing about the 10 miler! It is such an awesome feeling to do something good you have never done before! You will love the feeling of accomplishment after your first half marathon! Good luck in your training!
