Tuesday night met me with 3 miles on the treadmill. Nothing fancy, just 3 miles.
Last night was a walk down the greenbelt with the triple wide and a dog.
The half marathon is in 3 weeks. I've got to get my kid care situation figured out. Crap.

4 Weeks
So the half marathon I'm signed up for is just over 4 weeks away. Yeesh, is time really flying by so quickly?
The longest I've gone lately is 6, so my time on this one won't be anywhere near spectacular. But I'm going to do it and have a good time - that's really the point for me anyway - just keeping fitness in mind and accomplishing goals, no matter how lamely I do it.
I'm hoping to get the triple wide out tomorrow and put in some miles. Let's hope the kids and the weather cooperate!

Weekend Stroll
So the snow has finally melted, again . . . and the triple wide can safely travel down sidewalks. Our favorite lake path is flooded, so we we chugged down to the greenbelt and covered some new territory on Sunday - 2 hours worth.
The fun part, you know, besides arguing with the twins for an hour and a half about the parks being too muddy to play in as you're plugging along huffing and puffing? Being about a half block from the park you know won't be too muddy and realizing you reallllllly have to go to the bathroom . .. and are about a half mile from home, which is uphill, and in the middle of suburbia. Commence pushing said 120 lbs of stroller as fast as humanly possible up what feels like Mount Everest toward home with devastated kids screaming about the park . . . while trying not to shit yourself.
Good news is we made it home in time. And then ventured back out to the park.
It was a great workout with lots of hills and I think the kids enjoyed the fresh air, too. I feel a lot better and less tired, though my appetite is through the roof. Whatever, my weight is stable, I'm strong and can manage not to poop myself in public. I consider that a win.
