No miles at all the last two days. My oldest-the runner- was driving home after school yesterday and was hit by a man that ran a stop sign. She is mostly ok, her arm got a burn from the air bag and she has whiplash too. Other than that it is a lot of bruises and a sore little body. The car is a total loss, but it could have been much worse and we are feeling very blessed she is alive. So after I get our heads to stop spinning I'll get back to the pavement. Thanks all.

Finally back for a run. It was hard after a week off, but I got five miles in. My daughter is doing okay, but she won't be running for a long time. She will be going to therapy three times a week until her muscles and everything are strong again.  She is determined to get back to a hundred percent.

I have a 5K on Saturday, but it won't be a fast one. I asked my biggest loser team to sign up for it and all but one of them is coming. The only reason the last one is bailing is she will be out of town. This will be a HUGE deal for these guys, I am so excited about the life style change they are making!

Fun race! I was slower than I wanted, but thats normal, hehe. I didn't check the batteries in my garmin yesterday and when I tried to turn it on at the begining of the race, it died. (cue sad music...ahh) I had four members of my biggest loser team and two more of my clients that ran the 5K today. I am so proud of them all. One of them even got first in his division!! How cool is that?

Thanks for your concern about Kiya.  I showed her your comments and she was very touched.

Kim---I am so bummed I didn't check the blog earlier, I would have loved to meet you!  next time for sure!

It was such a beautiful day I was excited for a run outside.  I got a mile in before my allergies hit and I went running for cover indoors.  Oh well.  Three more miles on the treadmill and then the kids started to get home from school.  I feels good to be doing something again even if it is inside.

I feel good!  I just did six miles at an easy 10m/m  and I loved it.  I put two pounds on last week when I couldn't run and was so stressed about my girl,  But it is coming right back off now that I'm back to my running.  Life is sweet!
