Hi there. Okay I am just going to say it. I miss having a work out partner. I am kinda lonely. There is this blog called, Real mom nutrition I enjoy reading it. Well she put out a challenge for 12 days of exercising. It was great because she made a page on facebook and you liked her page and then everyone checked in each day with each other to see how they were doing and motivate each other out. I totally enjoyed it. I have joined other blog competitions that are suppose to help you stay on track but they don't have the community feel. I like reading the facebook posts about what people had done for the day. It was like I had a community of workout buddies.The best part was that everybody was at a different level or doing different exercises and it didn't matter. We were just buddies helping each other out. So, I am wondering is anyone interested in doing this with me? I would love to check in with anybody or everybody? We don't have to do it every day but maybe every other day or weekly. We could start a challenge to exercise together from now until New Years day.
Who's in it with me?
THis same blog also found this great 100 push up challenge that I would like to do. Check it out and see what you think
Leave me a comment and let me know and if there is interest I will set things up.
Just keep running. Corrine

I am Lazy and I paid for it!!
Okay so this week I have been lazy. No excuses just lazy. I slept in a few times and just was lazy. Yesterday was one of those lazy days. I blame my husband really. You see he decided to sleep in as well. Do you know how hard it is to get out of a warm comfy bed when your spouse is still in it? I thought I will work in a small run on the treadmill later in the day I was going to enjoy laying in my bed. BIG MISTAKE!!!!
You see the day started out with very sad news. A family member had just lost their brand new baby. I was and am heart broken for them. I felt helpless and sad that there really wasn't a lot I could do. When it comes to my family I want to help them anyway I can and this is one of those moments that there wasn't much I could do.
Later in the morning my friend (who is also family because of marriage) came over with her three kiddos. We had 5 kids running around the house while we tried to craft. Things were going great ( as great as they can when you have 5 kids running around screaming and laughing and playing) until her two year old let out a huge scream that we knew was not okay. I ran to the top of the stairs to grab her( my friend is very pregnant so running up stairs is not tops on her list). My sweet niece was crying also saying I didn't mean to I didn't mean to. I surveyed the damage and the little two year old had got her little finger shut in a door. It looked gross. Knowing my friend has a weak stomach I grabbed her little girls and said, 'Heather don't look yet." It looked bad. I ran to the bathroom to clean her up and it still looked bad!! My friend decided to take her to the ER. This now left me with four kiddos, lunch to make and one kiddo to return from school shortly.
While all of this was going on my 2 1/2 year old decided that she was going to potty train herself. I give her credit she did pretty good but not the best day for me to help her. She wore her cute little hello kitty underwear all day but not once did she make it to the potty to poop. Nope all three times the poop ended up in those cute little hello kitty underwear. One time she said I have to go poopey so I picked her up quick and ran to the bathroom and as I was pulling her hello kitties down I and stepped towards the potty I felt something soft under foot. AHHH S***( as my mother would say). Yep she didn't make it again. Now I had to clean her up and also had to decide do I just throw the shoe away or try to clean off the crap. Meanwhile as I am dealing with this the other kiddos all need something (are you freaking kidding me!!) I was done with hello kitty at this point and said hello diaper.
I finally sat down after eating pepperoni pizza to watch the pac 12 championship college football game. I felt like a big blob and I thought. Crap I really should have went running today.
Keep on running. Corrine
P.S. I did run this am. 7 1/2 miles and I totally needed it.
