I miss being able to say, "I ran 4 miles earlier today," like he does. I miss 30-40 minutes of no one touching me as I push the toddler chariot into the wind. Mostly I miss my pants fitting properly, so once the chocolate cake is gone (ahem, tonight, ahem), I'll be right next to ya. (I have a feeling that if we actually got together to work out, our mouths would be the only thing running a mile a minute..)Jennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04775339340972612762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2342430678029407545.post-31787477744201938202014-04-10T06:44:59.092-07:002014-04-10T06:44:59.092-07:00YES!

However, quail season brings a different mindset, and motivation. Walking from sun up to sun set chasing these elusive upland birds provides a goal that I cannot resist...so, 6 to 8 miles in the heat, cold, rain or shine through some challenging terrain tuckers me out, and aches the muscles...but the goal makes it impossible to resist. Does hurt more in Sept. than Jan. as I play myself into shape.<br /><br />Love,<br />DadScotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09099295022301924839noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2342430678029407545.post-40963639771322515812014-04-08T12:03:37.582-07:002014-04-08T12:03:37.582-07:00I LOVED this because yes, yes I am also horribly a...I LOVED this because yes, yes I am also horribly awful at running. And I too have always wanted to be the kind of person who can get out there and run for 20 miles without breaking too much of a sweat-not because I wanted to be super fit, but because that kind of endurance is a really good kind of grit. So I've been running every day for the last month and a half (okay, almost every day) on my treadmill waiting for the weather to warm up so that I can take it to the trails and sidewalks. I have noticed a difference! I just keep telling myself that if I walk slowly towards my goals rather than trying to bolt for them, that I will actually make it this time because I'm doing it the only way that really works for me. <br /><br />We're in this together friend!
