Not sure why my foot and ankle are still swollen...hurts like heck.  At least the fire in the front of my leg is out!

Lincoln Marathon Race Report

Another beautiful Spring day in Nebraska, another year running the Lincoln National Guard Marathon and Half Marathon! David and I rode our bikes to the start of the race, as we do each year.  Since they recently moved the start line, to accommodate more runners, we need to change where we rack our bikes! The weather on the Saturday before the race was terrible!  Our 11yo daughter, Alahnnah, ran the KFRX Mayor's Run and it was miserable.  It was about 35 degrees with 20mph winds and rain.  We had discouraged the girls from participating - but when a kid tells you "Mom, we signed up for it, we need to do it" - you have to do it. Miss A giving me "the look" Thankfully, Sunday was a little better.  The temps were hovering around 40 and there was no rain.  The wind had died down a bit, but it was still chilly!  I dressed in a t-shirt and a jacket when last year I ran in a tank top! When we got to the race, we lined up waaaay in the back near the...

Throwing a Fit

I'm having a hard time putting our nearly 3-year-old to bed lately. Naps and night time = nightmare. I have to physically take her by the hand, change her into appropriate clothes/undergarments, pick her up kicking and screaming and place her in her bed. Sometimes she jumps up and down screaming other times she simply continues to get out of bed, I lay her down over and over and over. I really hate it when it keeps our 13mo old from sleeping. He has been the Sleeper Who Didn't since birth - so getting and keeping him on a schedule is paramount. I'm very good at remaining calm and emotionless most of the time when dealing with her. Our oldest daughter put me through nighttime hell for several years. I was a smoker back then, and I would go out on the balcony of our apartment and light up in between times I checked on her. One time I called my Mom at my wit's end and said "I just don't think I can listen to her screaming anymore!" My sweet Mother, ...

Indoor Sprint Triathlon Race Report

Today, I completed the Grand Island YMCA Indoor Sprint Triathlon.  The events involved a 500yd pool swim, a 12 mile spin on the LeMond Spin Bikes and a 5k trip around the indoor track - which worked out to be about 40 laps. (!) My Mom and Grandparents live in GI, so it's always fun to go there for a race.  We arrived Friday night before the race and hung out with the Grannies.  The kids slept pretty well - our older two crashed on the couches and our little ones slept on the floor next to our bed (thanks Bro for letting us crash in your room!).  We were all sacked out by 10:30. I only slept in 2 hour intervals - but thought that better than the last race I slept for...that one I didn't sleep at all!  We got up and snuck out of the house a little after 6, leaving the kids with the Grands.   Drawing for my lane. The event was well organized and small.  Most folks were competing as a team, with one person doing each event.  We were ...
