Best Laid Plans...

Well.

I've been completely derailed by a sick 5 year old.

No running this weekend - between a crazy schedule , a sick kid, and very little sleep (see: sick kid) I wasn't feeling it. So I wrote myself a pass (mistake number one) and planned for a great run on Monday.

Unfortunately, when I was dreaming about my fantastic Monday run, I was NOT dreaming about the sick kid. (DENIAL!!!! I haz it.) How on earth did I think I was going to run with an extra kid home from school? I kill me sometimes.

Fortunately, sick kid is on the mend. Anything can be cured with a bubble bath (what - you didn't know that?). I present proof:

Since I've committed to a virtual 5k (Michel's "Suck it Up, Buttercup 5k") I'll be out there later, God willing. I'm not sure how I'm going to pull that off since Jenna has a home basketball game tonight, which means we have to work it. It may put me out there in the dark at 8pm. But it'll get done.

And since they are predicting blizzard-pocolypse in the next couple days, it may very well be the last run I get until much later in the week.

We'll talk later...

  2. Get out there and run, Bobbie! The snow is coming....I'll get it first. 8-12 inches predicted. I'm hoping to get to the gym early tomorrow morning before it all begins.

  3. It's hard to do what you want to do when kids come first. Especially sick kids. The life of a mom! I hope you beat the storm!
