Just wanted to share I dragged myself out of bed at 6am on Saturday morning to go for a solo run and reclaim the "me" time! It was well worth it! It wiped away the rough run the day before.
I was able to do my 4 miles, at about a pace 30 seconds slower than pre-pregnancy. I will say that my back and legs were a bit more sore later that day, but it comes with the territory.
Right now, since I'm only able to run a few times a week, I really need it to be a time of physical, not emotional exertion! Honestly, my runs help me survive the craziness of life. I think I've decided we'll wait a bit on more bike rides. At least not when I'm trying to get an actual run in. That will make for a happier mama and happier girl. In the meantime I'll just huff and puff with the heavy jogger, dreaming of the day Miss Rose is in school or riding her bike and I can run just a tad faster with the new baby in it instead!

I'm a mom of 2 girls, trying to instill healthy habits in their lives as well as my own.
About Me
I am a mom of 2 young girls. I enjoy running (while pushing the double jogger most of the time). I am trying to fill our cupboards with foods that have healthy ingredients and are balanced.
You On A Diet is my most recent inspiration and I'm getting ready to try out some recipes from Deceptively Delicious.
I think in many families, the mother sets the tone for so much. I hope with my family, I can influence them to make healthy choices in life. I want to be fit and healthy and set that example for them.
