That was pretty much a made up word, but that's the way I feel about the weekends usually most people spend way more during the weekend. I went shopping with my Mom for my big girl job to get some nice dress pants, and about six sweater/cardigan shirts. I did really good because it was all on sale! I was super excited. I got some great deals from American Eagle, Benetton, and Ann Taylor. Saturday night I just hung around the house with Noah and Stevie. Sunday we went to church, attended a baby shower church luncheon, and then came home and took a nap. It was fabulous. I then reheated a bowl of chili and made some rice krispie treats, and went to Wal-Mart with Noah to get some snacks for class on Tuesday. This weekend won't be too busy. I hope to get lots of school work done and then get ready to start work next Wed!! I am super excited. Off to watch the Super Bowl! I really don't know what the pictures are doing over there, but I tried to recreate my weekend through pictures, the stores I went to, chili and rice krispie treats, and then the church I went to. Maybe i will fix it later. Any suggestions on what is going on or how to put the pictures where i want in the post would be helpful!

Sunday's Are Never My Rest Days
Most Sundays we are usually up, showering and hustling to make it to church, but this Sunday our church was canceled due to the overnight black ice and such. Thank goodness most of the snow melted today while the sun was out shining! I got lots of stuff done, even though this is not how my usual Sunday’s are. I cleaned the downstairs, worked out on our elliptical, played with my weights, fixed some lunch, and worked on school work all before 11:45! I was super excited how early in the day it still was. So I was just thinking about explaining a little bit about the series I ran in and will be running again.
It is the Run For Your Life Grand Prix Series. In 2009 there were 9 races, but in 2010 there are 10 races. They are all the same as last year except they added a Great Harvest Bread Run. You can visit their site Run For Your Life and check out upcoming events, store events, and register for races. If you do the total of 10 races you have to register by March 12th and the total cost is $150. You can choose to pay race by race also. There is about 1 race a month until November. It is a great way to meet other runners, socialize, get fit, and compete. Most do it just for fun though! In running it gives you something to work towards during each run you run. Such as if you have a 5K coming up you may work on speed, but then when the 15K comes around you need to focus more on distance. Running is not for everyone, but everyone can learn to run. I started with just 15 minutes on the treadmill and worked my way up to many 10-12 mile runs. I do encourage you to set a goal, sign up for a race, and get busy training!

Snow 2010
Noah got his wish! It snowed!!! He was up at 7:30 ready to go get in it. I talked him into staying inside till about 10:00, then we went out for about an hour. His Daddy was out there with him most of the time. I just don't like it. He loved sledding down our driveway to the end of the street. Kids just don't care how wet, cold, or red their faces are! We came in and got showered and went to a Birthday party that was not canceled because of the snow. It was at a church in York and the roads getting there were not bad, because they were main roads. It was good to get out of the house and let Noah see some of his school friends. He had a good time and so did Mommy and Daddy! We got home around 6 and he went to his room and feel asleep watching A Bug's Life with cars all over his belly. It's 8:30 now so I am hoping he sleeps all night and doesn't wake up at 5:00 a.m.! Stevie and I are now relaxing watching this Miss American Pageant! He doesn't really want to watch up, but we are!
Other update I know I originally set up this blog to talk about health and running, but now I am working on this for class I am just going to be talking about everyday life. I ran a half marathon Dec 12, 2009 in 1:42 and that has been my last major run. I ran one 7 mile run, one 4 mile, one 3 mile and one 2 mile run between then and now. I am slowing down a bit from running because it has been really hard on my body, so I am just taking a break till my season starts back in March. I did win 2nd overall in the Run For Your Life Series and I will be running on their team this coming year. In the mean time I have been doing the elliptical for about 90 minutes everyday to keep my endurance for when I start doing long runs again, since your body doesn't really recognize the type of cardio you are doing. So that's where I am right now with running, but I will get back in it and hopefully be better than the last time!

While I was away I took Noah to get his three year old portraits done. These were done on the campus of University of South Carolina. I have none of daddy because he was working.My cousin's wife took these portraits. She has her own company. You can view her site here:http://www.brooketurnerphotography.com/index2.php?v=v1">.
