I did my first mile and a half on the stair stepper because my shins were sore and that seems to stretch them or warm them up.
Then I went and did 30 reverse sit ups.
I ran the first three miles in 33.30 minutes then I walked to cool down.
I think I could have ran at least another mile with out stopping but my shins were starting to hurt.
I went back and did 400 crunches on the ab machine and worked my arms a little bit.
After young womens tonight one of my girls asked me to go run/walk with her so we went to the park. we walked one lap then ran one. We did a total of 1.25 miles. It was past her bed time. But my shins were done for the day any ways. |

I had shin splint pretty bad today so I ran my mile and decided it would be best if I let my shins rest before I can't walk. I ran my mile in 10.44 then I walked .25 on an incline of three.
I worked my abs, did a few leg weights then I did the arc trainer for 35 minutes. I had it on a level 5 which is weights ranging between 5 and 30 pds most of the work out it is on the 25 and 30. It kicked my butt. I am tired today. I really had to push my self and talk my self through my workout today.

I did not work out today. I don't think I really have an excuse other than all my kids were out of school and I ran alot of erans. I had a cyst on my wrist that I had drained wednesday night and that was really sore and it was wrapped pretty tight I was thinking sweat and throbbing in the bandage and brace would really suck. beside I was so tired I could hardly stand it.
Somehow I mixed up my entries. This one is for thursday. |

I ran my first three miles without stopping. 32 minutes. My best time ever. I walked .25 to cool down and stretch.
I worked my abs and then rode the bike 2.15 miles in 10 min.

Although I have been working out for about thrre straight weeks now and I have not lost any weight and I don't see a diffrence that is disapointing. | |

I went to church today and had a good break. I read my patriartical blessing and it said to always set my goals high and through faith and diligence I can acheive them. It amazes me that I can read that at any random time in my life and I find something that applies to my life right now. It made me feel good anyways.
Our lesson in Miamaids was on health and fitness, go figure. I did not have to teach and was really enjoying the lesson until my baby got loud but I think I heard what I needed to hear.
It went over being fit and the benifits for our spirits.
I have a hard time with the eatting thing, and it talked about eatting fruits that are in season and meats sparingly things like that. I know these things but it is good to be reminded. | |

I warmed up on the arc trainer for about 8 minutes then I went and got on the treadmill.
I ran 4 miles in 41 minutes and a few seconds. New record for me!
I am suprised how much my breathing has improved my shins were sore for a minute but it seemed to work its self out. My upper legs were getting sore and my hips were hurting or I think I could have kept going.
After wards I worked my abs over really good and I did a few leg weights.

I am so sore today. I did the arc trainer for 30 minutes with alternating weights 5-30pds. That was 1.53 miles.
I tried running but my legs did not want to run today, it hurt so I figured I better not push it or I would rip something.
So I went and worked my arms and abs.
Then I rode the bike on a light resistance for 15 minutes going 3 miles.
I did not sleep well at all last night. My husband has a cold and he sounded like a train all night. I finally went to the couch but I think that made me stiff.

I ran 3 miles in 32 min's, then walked up hill for .25
I worked my abs.
Then I went 2 miles on the bike in 10 minutes.
I felt much better today. I slept pretty good for the most part. If I could just get the baby to sleep all night things would be much better.

I got up earlier today and thought I would try running outside. I looked out the window and said" um no it snowed." O, it was not snow it was the thick frost. I thought about my sad big dog that never gets out so I got ready and away we went.
All I can say is Burrrrrr! I could not even run 1/2 mile with out being completely out of breath. After about 5 minutes I shed my hoodie. I had knit gloves on and my hand felt sweaty but would have turned to ice if I took them off. I think I need to get a head band that covers my ears and back of my neck because I got this head ache in the back of my ears that was like a brain freeze in the wrong spot. So I went 1.5 in about 30 minutes. The dog had fun!
I did better at the gym. I ran 2 miles in 21 min's then i walked .50 at an incline of 7. So I was on the treadmill for a total of 30 minutes.
I worked my abs. Then I rode the bike for 35 minutes going 7.10 miles.
So I need to learn to run in diffrent elements next right! | |

My body felt so tired when I woke up today. I have some mild shin splints so I decided just on cross training because I knew tomarrow my only choice is to run for my workout.
I did 5 miles on the elliptical in 51:00. Since I was not running I tried to keep a pace of 10 minute miles.
I went and worked my abs. I have been doing an average of 450 crunches everyday for the last 4 weeks. No change? Sucks.
I did a few arm weights and one set of leg weights.
Then I went and rode 2 miles on the bike for a total of 10 minutes.
I felt like it was a good workout.

As much as I did not feel like it, I got up and ran 3 miles on my treadmill. My husband is on the hunt for a deer, so outside will have to wait.
I walked for a minute to catch my breath but still finished just under 33:00.
I would have liked to run/walk for a full hour to get in a good workout but I had super saterday today and getting 7 kids ready to go somewhere takes a whole morning.
I passed on the pumkin pie and ice cream they served. Now that was strength! | |

I think I had a touch of the stomack flu yesterday and one of my twins had it so I took the day off. There is no way I would have been able to exercise.
I got a good nights rest and felt much better today.
I ran 4 miles in 42 min, then I worked my inner and outer thighs on weight machines.
Then I rode the bike for 30 minutes. I went 5.50 miles on the bike.
I feel like I had a good workout. |

So I have had this rash on the whole bacl of my body for the last week. I have no idea what it is from. I have not changed anything other than my exercise. I washed my bedding with extra rinse to make sure there was no soap in it. So Last night I was so itchy that I took 2 allergy pills. I think they kicked my butt.
I did not want to get up today and o my run sucked. It took me an hour to go 4.35 miles. I did keep the incline up when I had to walk, but my legs were so tired that I don't think it was physically possiable to do any better today. I did have to stop and run to the bathroom so that did shave time off.
I spent the last 30 min working my abs. (And laying on the bench.)
I think I may be getting a cold as well. I did stop at good earth on my way home and got a good vitamin and some cod oil.

I still have the hives really bad and i could not sleep or sit still last night so I had to take something again. I had a really hard time getting out of bed.
I still made it to my gym appointment.
I ran the first 3 miles in 33 minutes then I walked for .25 then I turned up the speed and ran .75 then I walked and streched for another.20. I finished in 46:00. I felt drained but by the time I had walked over and weighed myself and sat down to do my abs I was feeling much better. So I worked my abs then I rode the bike for 15 minutes going 2.80. Slower than usual, but good considering how tired I am.
I drank my first teaspoon of cod liver oil today. My husband laughed at me because I gagged so bad. I thought it was comming right back up. So I hope that gets easier for me.

I spent my entire day serching foe a bigger vehicle. We had all 7 kids with us and one had the stomack flu. I think that counts as something (Cross training) Maybe just strengthening my mind. We came home with a 2003 yukon GMC. It will take some getting use to but I like it. It was a very draining day.
After that I had to go to the youth harvest social. I played marshmellow volly ball and danced with the kids. I attemted to play glow in the dark tag until the lights went out and I saw all the people with necklaces running straight for me. I threw my bracelet and ran to the stage. Not before I got shoved and yelled at that I was out. I was the only leader out there and figured they were out to kill me. It would be just my luck to sprain my ankle or something playing a silly game with the young women and men.
I did pass on the rootbeer floats and the other goodies they were passing out.
Although My lunch and dinner were quick fixes and I could have chose much better things to eat.

My lesson was on self Mastery today. I think I needed it more than the girls did. There were so many good quotes.
One of my favorite one's was.
"The height of a man's success is gauged by his self -mastery; the depth of his failure by his self-abandonment.....He who cannot establish a dominion over himself will have no dominion over others. He who masters himself shall be king"
I also read this story about a girl who fell down and was crying and by the time her mother got to her she had stopped crying, and the mother asked why she stopped, the little girl said "I just told myself to stop and then I made myself mind me"
So I guess I need to liken myself to a child and mind myself.
I love that my last two lessons have helped me mentally prepare for my next week of reaching my goals.

I ran the first three miles then I walked for a few minutes and streched before I finished my last mile. My legs and knee's seemed stiff today.
I finished in 50 minutes.
I spent the rest of my afternoon at my doctors appointment. She seems to think that my insulin is still wacky and says if they can get that all under control that I will be able to train much better. (Without feeling so drained all the time anyways.)
I have been taking my vitamins and oil every day and I think I might feel better. My hives are finally leaving so I will be able to sleep now. | |

Today was a really bad day.
I was put on a new medication last night and I could not get up today. My twins messed up so much in my body that I am still trying to fix.
But also for some reason my knee's and shins hurt today more than any day since i have really started to run. I more than likely would have ended up doing cross training today and weights.
When I got to the gym today they told me my pass was no longer good to bring my kids because my pass had been put into corporate computer as a regular pass. Then they said that my baby was sick so he had to leave.
So I left after .75 miles and totally mad. So I was on the phone all day trying to fix my pass. They fixed it but because of the guy who signed me up and I had to take him down at another location.
I had young women's tonight and then it was my husbands turn to go work out. I managed to get on the treadmill and only went.75 before the baby was awake and won't let me put him down. So here I sit. (NICE)!
I am hoping tomarrow is a much better day. |

I ran 2 miles and considering my leg pain the last couple of days I did not want to push it so I went and worked my abs and lifted legs weights.
Then I rode 3 miles on the bike.
I also was thinking I am going to be doing alot of walking with my kids tonight. |

I ran my four miles in 46:00. I walked some of it.
I did some ab work. Then I rode the bike for 25 minutes.
Other than my legs feeling tired I feel pretty good.
I think if I could get a good nightds sleep I would be twice as good.

We had three older boys in our home last year for about 9 months. Matt and I got to know there parents pretty well. I decided that there dad was a decent guy and he really loved his boy's. He did everything he could to get them back and living with him. I watched and helped bring these boy's and there dad come together. Well last night he was killed in an acident at work, he was crushed my his front end loader. So those boy's have nothing.
Anyways I have this horriable head cold and I cried a good part of last night and I can't seem to shut the tears off even today.
I am not sure how running and being sick works. I know I could channel my anger and hurt of this death into running a good run but I am not sure if it is bad on the cold.

I never did find a good time to go run yesterday. My baby is sick and I ended up having to take him in and get breathing treatments. It is just one thing right after another.
So today I swore no matter what I would get out and run. I went to a babtizm. And because Tallon was sick and coughing all night I hardly slept. The doctor says it usually hits the hardest around 2:00am so I stayed up with him until then to make sure he could breath.
When I got home from the babtize I wanted to go take a nap but I told my husband if I didn't run now I wouldn't so I told him to drive me and my dog up the Alpine highway and leave me there so I had no choice. I told him 5 miles but the next place to pull off was way farther up and he was not liking me running out side because he still has that horriable death on his mind.
It was good. I was able to breath alot better than I thought I would seeing as I have a horriable cold. I did feel good when My poor dog kept wanting to lay down. I told Matt it is pretty sad that I am in better shape than my lab.
I finished in exactly 60 minutes. I think I would have done alot better if it were not for my dog. I even ended up giving my water to her instead of myself me cause she was foaming at the mouth. (that required me to stop and open her mouth and pore the water in that way.)
I also thought I needed to clear my mind so I ran with out music today and it was very good for me. |

I had my husband move my treadmill into our tv room so I walked/ ran while I watched tv with the family. Mostly walked so I could pay attention to the kids as well.
I let my husband go to church and I stayed home with the sick baby. He always is the one to miss out. |

I had to get up early to have my Yukon in to get my window fixed. ( I had an early morning drop off time)
Right after that I had to go to the hospital and get a bunch of blood work done. I had to go in fasting so I could not eat or drink anything after 7:00pm the night before. I thought about running before I had to drop the truck off but decided I would need water.
I got there and they took 10 vials of blood then made me drink the orange nasty drink. After that I had my blood drawn every half hour for the next two hours.
So needless to say I got home at 2:45 in the afternoon. I was ready to pass out or something. I ate a couple of taco's and I was still shaking so bad that I finally ate a small candy bar out of the kids halloween candy and ten I crashed. I slept for a few hours and woke up in time to fix dinner and then run out to get a dress for the funeral. ( I own alot of colorful church clothes)
I did about as much walking as I could do looking for a black dress. |

I woke up today with every intention of running before the funeral.
My husband and I are going to Florida this weekend for 5 days. (Just for fun) and one of my baby sitters called me and said she could not baby sit so we spent every minute up until we had to get ready finding some one else. (Our plane tickets are paid for)
The funneral was from 12-2 then we went to the grave side service, after that we went to talk to some people about the boys we had because there are custody problems.
After such a sad very tearful day I just wanted to hold my kids and tell them how much I love them.
This man was so young and if he had any clue that that day was going to be his last he would have hugged all his kids and told them how much he loved them. He would have spent every last minute of his life with them. I think sometimes we take our time here on earth for granted.
My thougths today are live life like there is no tomorrow. Work hard, love everyone around you, smile and say hi, No matter how mad you are at your kids or loved ones tell them you love them and hug them every chance you get.
If you are headed down the wrong road fix it. Don't wait another day fix it now.
So we took the kids out to dinner and just enjoyed each other.
I am emotionally drained. I don't think I have any more tears in my body and I would probley calapse if I ran right now.
I will come back strong tomorrow.

My husband and I just got back from Orlando FL. I do have to say I was very disappointed. This is the first vacation we have had in 6 years without the kids. I learned I have no idea who I am without the kids around all the time. Breaks are good but not for 5 nights. It is not pretty down there either. Most of what we planned to do kinda ended in a flop. We did go on an air boat ride that was pretty cool. The funnest we had was playing minature golf. We got an all day pass and played probley 6 or 7 rounds then we played basket ball until my wrist I just had surgery on no longer could take it.
I feel very blessed to live here. I think Utah is one of the most beautiful states there is. I think we would have found more to do and for alot less money just staying somewhere closer.
I thought it would be fun to go running while we were gone but we wanted to see so much that I never had time. There was really no where to run not unless I drove somewhere and Matt would have never agreed to that. There was no resting thats for sure. Except our 2 days of flying. Sitting there for that long was a killer.
Now I just need to get unpacked and get back in gear so I can get back to training. |

| Got up and met my sister at her work and we walked the track. She said three times around was 4 miles it did not seem that far but it may have been because we talked the whole time. we went around it 4 times. We ran maybe 200 feet at the most. She is just starting out so i stayed at her pace. | |

I have no idea what happened to me the last few weeks. I have said once I fall off getting going again is so hard. I can't seem to shake the same cold I have had for over a month now and I think I ran out of rope the last week but I am ready to get going again.
I ran my first mile in 11:30 I was suprised that I could still runn after being so bad the last little bit. I walked and ran the next 1.25. I am not sure where I should pick back up so I thought 30 minutes was good. If I was at the gym I would have taken my 1.5 hrs but at home it is to hard to stay on the treadmill much longer because I have to many things to do.
I can say my last pattern of running and working out I did not see alot of physical results and I think that discoraged me alot. I thought after 6 weeks of really working out I would have seen a big diffrence in my body.
After not working out for a couple of weeks I see huge negative effect in my moods. i am unbearable alot of the time.

I told my self all day yesterday I was going to get on my treadmill and I never did. i have had the most air headed days of my life the last two days.
Tuesday I thought I would try washing down my fish oil with diet rootbeer. I have to plug my nose to drink it, keep my nose plugged while I rinse it down with something. And I still gag.
So Ya plugging your nose and trying to drink soda not a good idea. I think I choked it all including the fish oil back into my mouth. and then I had fish/rootbeer burps for like an hour.
Yesterday I was on the phone getting some technical suport for my computer (lap top) And the customer service guy was telling me to go type things in and close out windows. So I ran down stairs three time telling him to hang on while I performed these actions before I relized I could just bring my laptop up to the phone with me. The suport guy did not find it funny at all. (I told him I was an idiot and had my lap top next to me now I could imagin him rolling his eyes at me) My cordless was dead.
I down loaded pinks new video from Itunes and it would not play in windows player for me and it would not play from the dvd I burned it to on my tv. I was getting so frusterated trying to figure it out and with the kids that i accidently deleated a couple of my playlists that I had worked a couple of hours putting together. (I have about 10,000 song on my computer) All legal and paid for over the years.
this dose not include the daily dumb things I do anyways or all the drama with all these kids. My boy I am addopting's paper work has been lost for the second time. They tell me this after 3 months of asking why our prints have not gone through. My baby's mom has lost her mind as well as her grandparents and she is now in jail and somehow I am supose to be sad about that. And my girl is the biggest brat on the face of the earth right now. O the fits she can throw.
So now that I have vented. I ran my first mile in 10:30 and then I walked .50. I stopped at 20 minutes. I am hoping to go to the gym later or get back on the treadmill when the baby go's down for a nap or bed.
The baby has finally made an attatchment to me which is awsome. We were worried he would not so I can't leave the room with out him crying and he wants me all the time. The negative part of that is i have less time now. Before he was fine by him self or with anyone who wanted him. As far as making sure he dose not aquire a detatchment disorder I give into his every demand when it comes to me. They say if a baby can't attatch by 6 mths of age they might never. ( I beleive under the ideal situations they can)
So by the time my husband got home I was strung so tight I think he was scared of me.(I did get the best back rub he has ever given me tho)
I got back on the treadmill when The baby took his nap. I went 2.50 more miles ran my first mile and then kind of just walked the rest. I went for 44:00 minutes. It feels good to be going again but I am tired a little sore. How sad is that I could go 4 miles all at once running and not feel it at all the next day, now look where I am.

I don't know if I have mentioned before but I have the most painful sore on the bottom of my foot. I steped on some barnicals at the beach back in August. It was a deep open cut for about a week and now I have no idea what it is. It is like a clear jelly that is imbedded deep in ,y foot. I have tried everything to get rid of it. Anyways I am getting to the point where I can hardly walk on it. I have been trying to run on the side of my foot the last while.
So needless to say I cross trained today. I did the arc trainer for 15 minutes and then I lifted weights legs arms and abs. Then I rode the bike for 30 minutes.
It did feel good to get back to the gym and mix things up a bit. | |
