Hope you're feeling better soon!
I'm glad to hear that she is doing well. 
Speedy me today! 
Felt good and then me & the bean got a little sumpin' goin. 
Anyway....it was a fun afternoon with the kids once they got off the bus and then we went to see my nephew's teeball game before the rain storm hit. I am SO glad for the rain to hopefully clear out some of this nasty pollen. 
Can't there just be an OFF switch for when you're done having babies?? Sounds logical to me.
That was one heck of a great run. I'm so proud of you . Seriously...great job AND ab work on top of it. 
. 
I'll just be watching American Idol to see who is given the old boot tonight.
Love you two.
Can you Fed Ex me some rum, though? ugh It felt really good, and you know what? I didn't wear the garmin. Maybe it really isn't a good thing. (you might wanna join in to Lost. I have seasons 1 & 2 on DVD.......tempting, isn't it?? )
. . So enjoy it...just try not to let the pace on the watch drive you. Find your comfy pace and just go with it as much as possible.
And I don't want to give you the wrong idea about the Garmin. I used it all last year for my training and it is an awesome gadget for sure!!! But I would suggest....every now and then.....just run without it so you can just enjoy the run and not worry about your pace. If you're anything like me you're looking at that thing all the time and thinking "i need to speed up".
Anyway....I didn't mean to put down the Garmin. I'm happy for you that you got one! I just don't have a lot of reliability with it here when all the trees have their leaves. Down at LBI last summer it was awesome and worked like a charm
Have a great night Kim!
..that thing scares me a bit ) 
When I stopped running in January and February, I really really missed it. Even though I was sick 90% of that time, the guilt I felt from NOT running was unbearable. So I run for many reasons, but the main one is that I truly, truly enjoy it. It's MY time and it's for ME. I don't do much else for myself in a selfish sort of way, so it's an odd feeling sometimes. But the way I feel after a run......well - you know what that's like. 
(whew, I went OFF there, huh?)
At that point I had a decision to make. I could turn around & climb back into bed (REALLY wanted to do that), I could just go run, or I could go back in the house & get a baseball cap (and delay the decision). So I did the hat thing. And I got right back out there, garminless. 
I knew I felt faster and my breathing felt fine, so I stuck with it. And I actually "sprinted" the last 1/4 mile.
It can definitely put a fun spin on an otherwise ordinary run. Congrats on getting out there!
and look at running in the rain as a soul cleansing experience, washing away the toxic thoughts while you fortify your body. ROFL. OK...maybe not.....it's cold and wet and the only redeeming value to it is that you get to run through puddles without feeling silly . Bottom line is that you did it and you did GREAT! Have a wonderful weekend Kim!
Oh my
.
I know the running will really speed up the weight loss, as long as I stop eating SO many calories. haha 
Keep up the good work!! I have never run anywhere near 20 minutes, but those little bursts that I used to run, really did feel good! I can only imagine 54 minutes of mostly running! You ROCK! 
I told him we HAVE TO have a Lost marathon Sunday!! It is fun that way, but then when it is over I just want MORE!!
