Sleep in your workout clothes.
When the alarm went off at 5:45 (hey, I'm easing into it!), I thought "I'll just workout this evening."
Then I thought, "@#$^# I'm already dressed. Fine."
Leg day and a 15 minute run done before 7. I'll have to make it earlier if I want to run longer.
Boo-yeah.

I've been hesitant to post ...
... sorry, D, no quarter bouncing video yet.
I know, I know. I'm totally a slacker.
Honestly, I remember to do it until my quarter bouncer comes around and then I just get all distracted by his hunkiness and how much I love him.
Right??? I kind of want to throw up over that mush I just wrote.
So, I promise to set a reminder on my phone. We will get it done before the end of the month. I promise.
But what else has been going on? Not a whole lot. I'm getting back into running, with a few runs here and there, trying to learn where some good trails are for shorter runs and establish a decent route for longer runs.
Interestingly enough, I read on the Dublin (Ireland) Marathon website that trails or softer surfaces are good for most runs, but longer training runs should be run on the same surface that your planned race should be on. Makes sense to me, but I'm just curious, has anyone else heard this?
Saturdays were originally dubbed "Speedy Saturdays" for speedwork, but then I wonder when I'm going to get my longer runs in. On Mondays? I guess that could work.
Being neurotic about my dog, however, I worry.
It was easier when I was just running. Now that I'm trying to get into the weight room and into the yoga studio regularly, all I feel is that I'm one of "those people" who just got a dog and then ignores it all the time.
Seriously, parents of children, how do you do it all?!?!?!??!?!?!?!?!?
My friend Holly, has now competed in her THIRD bikini (think fitness, not drunk college girls) competition and she has 6 year old twins at home plus three other kiddos! It amazes me.
Did I mention she has her fourth competition coming up in a month?
How does she do it??? How do you all train for marathons?!?!?!!?!?!?!?
All you Moms out there, you are Wonder Women.
No. Joke.
Ok ok, Dads you are like super heroes, too. =)
