Where were we?

Sorry I haven't updated in awhile. I have been crazy busy and seriously am wondering how I keep all the days of the week straight lately. I modified the schedule to fit my needs better and make it more attainable for me- beginner schedule was too easy, intermediate was a bit demanding so I sort of met in the middle. Hopefully it works, so far it's going great!
I had 4 great runs last week that really stick out. I think my favorite workout was last Monday- I ran to the gym, worked out, then ran home. It was a great way to get some great cross training time in. My weekend runs were fabulous- I was feeling a big headache coming on Sunday but I still managed to crank it all out.
I was in awe a few minutes ago when I went to the race website and it stated I have 72 days until race day. WHAT? Where does time go? I suppose I am already in week 5 but still craziness. I keep telling myself I must be crazy for trying to run this race as I am packing, trying to buy a house, move and all that jazz. Good news??

I found a house and the offer was accepted! We are hoping to close on April 23rd but everything is all set to go. It will be nice to get the tax credit and put money back in the savings account again. The kids are super excited, Chuck is excited to finish the basement and I am thrilled to be able to say I bought a home- a home to raise our kids in. Come to my home. It has a nice ring to it doesn't it?

I have been doing pretty good diet wise until this week. I haven't done much this week- I can't blame it entirely on crazy schedules but I am because I can :) I am maintaining from what the scale says but we'll see what Friday's weigh in brings.

The sun is out and I am so look forward to a great run this evening.. I need it. It's amazing what a run can do for your spirits- it makes me forget everything and just focus on me and the next step in front of me.
