Sitting here pretty much doing nothing at work, I was just thinking about my goals and list of things to do in my life. I have a wonderful, more than perfect son and a great life and a great husband. My son is beautiful, he is amazing and more than I could have ever imagined or wanted, I still have no idea how I managed to be happy before he existed. Working here at the shop and being able to have him with me, being able to run and do races just makes me feel great. I don't know if I would be able to function at work if he was somewhere else being cared for by someone else.
So far I have ran 2 Half Marathons and a lot of smaller races, and this year I will be running in possibly 5 Half Marathons along with a few smaller races.
There isn't really anymore that I can do, I don't know how far Cameron would be willing to travel and there isn't a lot around here. And unfortunately a lot of them are close together on dates but far apart on distance, I am kind of regretting having signed up for the Flying Pig Half Marathon in Ohio, when I should have signed up for the One America 500 Half Marathon instead, up in Indianapolis. I can do that one next year though, other than earning myself 4-5 more finisher's medals this year I really want to increase my weekly mileage to 30-35 by the end of the year without any injuries.
It is going to be really hard though, because I will most likely need to add an extra day around November right after the Indy Monumental Half, probably hill or speed work on a treadmill. I am tempted to do it this summer with a couple months between my Half Marathons, but I am not sure if that would be a good idea.
