For the life of me I could not remember my password to login. That's my excuse for not posting. Lame I know . . . since it took me less than one minute to go through the steps to reset my password. Why did I feel it was necessary to set up a whole new gmail account for this blog anyway? Oh, that's right . . . cause I thought it was going to be so great to have the freedom of being completely anonymous. You know, wouldn't want my siblings, etc. to follow blogger links to THIS blog. Cause running is so top secret. Ahhh, the real reason . . . this blog is supposed to be about continuing to run through pregnancy and no else knows about the hopeful plans to be pregnant. But, alas, I am not . . . .so on with the running.
My husband surprised me out the blue (you know, that's the way surprises work) by signing himself up for a 1/2 marathon. What? Are you kidding me? My husband? Awesome . . . except that I have NOT been training for it like I had planned to. I thought I would be pregnant and even though I told myself I would train, train, train - as long as possible - I mentally checked out of the training world and into the "Am I pregnant?" world.
But now I think my mental state is sufficiently changed back to running. Yeah, me. I'll have to be more patient with the pregnancy hopes.
Anybody out there?

sorry to hear about your non-pregnant state. that would be really hard. i think it's so great you have somewhere you can talk about it, and i'm even more impressed that you're so dedicated to running despite the let down in other areas of your life! a lot of times my desire/motivation to run coincides with how i am feeling in life in general, if that makes sense. if life is hard, i'm so emotionally drained i have nothing left to motivate myself to go running. so, i'm really impressed by you!! that's AWESOME that you're husband signed up, my husband and i have started running together in the last year and it's so fun to have something else that we can relate with each other on and spend time together doing! when's the 1/2 marathon?
and thanks for your really nice comment on my blog!! what a fun surprise!
Kate,
Thanks so much. The half marathon is on Valentine's Day. I think that makes it even more fun. It's great to have a race to train for and focus on. I seem to feel so much better about most everything when I'm good about running.
Plus, I'm already blessed with a wonderful family. We're just ready to add one more.
