I'm married to an awesome man (with bad knees, so he can't run with me :( ), we have a beautiful daughter, and I'm part of a running family. My sister and I started running together on high school teams, my brother and next two younger sisters when they were old enough, and then our parents too. We're a little obsessed.

Such a happy run today! After running at about the same pace for most of the time, I decided I could throw in some speed. I ran 6x200m at about 40-43 seconds, and it felt SO GOOD to sprint again! It's the best feeling to walk up the stairs of the apartment afterwards, feel the burn, and know I got a good workout in. I iced my foot afterwards since it felt a little achy, but I think upping my calcium is paying off.

Two days of packing and then we will be on an airplane, headed home! Now, excuse me while I go finish off a plate full of watermelon slices. It's time to clean out the fridge!
