Figuring how to get things done is always a dance. After working all day I know that the kids just want to spend time with me, but when it time to get lashed it def makes for a interesting night. Thanks to the great Alicia Hunter she was making a house call. Mothers day brunch is Sunday and I needed to get my lashes extended! The only problem is how to do this with an excited 4 year old. Thank God for Jojo. She is supper nanny extraordinaire. She kept Russy fed and occupied while Riley kept us entertained.
Moms are the masters of everything. Alicia was whipping in those lashes while Riley was jumping in the bed. I was amazed that my lashes were all straight. After of about an hour of lashing I was glamorized to go out to my next big event.....turtle hunting.
We went in search for a little turtle that has take refuge in our front yard. After our turtle hunt it was dinner time then bed. Ahhh now some time for me and the hubs, but the hubs is asleep on the couch!
Training for this marathon will for sure be an adventure. Its Thursday and I have managed to get in two runs totaling about 6 miles!! I know I can run a marathon with out training, but I really want to train so I can finish this race in a little over 4 hours. My "real" training schedule start is just a few weeks so I am going to really have to step up my runs. Tomorrows another day and the weeks not over yet. Lets see what I can fit in the next two days. Nite nite xo

Chicago it is!
I have decided to venture and do another marathon. Crazy I know, but hey what can I say. This time I am actually planning on training. Not like my Disney run where there was just the occasional weekend run. This should be interesting. I have a 8 month old and a 4 year old a full time job and a husband. I am not an early riser for runs so I have a feeling that there will be a lot of "I'll just go later" So it begins 151 days to go!!
This race I will be lacing up my shoes for a 26.2 mile run in a city that I have never been.The windy city of Chicago. I am so excited that I will be able to see the city from this perspective. It is always so fun to be able to run through the streets and take in all the new sites. It also takes my mind off the crazy idea that I am running such a long distance. I am also looking forward to a little time away with Joe. This race is going to be another special race because I will be running for a cause. I am running with Team Determination to raise money for the American Cancer Society. This disease affects so many of us on a personal level that I am going to do my part so one family can have hope. I believe that money raised can benefit so many people that one day we can live in a world with out cancer.
My plea is dig deep into your pocket maybe even skip the $5.00 latte for a day and help someone that is surviving this disease on more breath. It will give one family that has been recently diagnosed hope. It will bring us one day closer to a cure.
So follow me on my next adventure into the crazy world of marathon training and juggling the everyday life. It is sure to get interesting. xoxo
