First of all Congratulations to my amazing running jayhawk!!!! 50K, you never cease to amaze me!!! you keep going girl, I'm so proud of you!!!
Last Thursday a friend and I kidnapped another friend who was turning 60....we headed off to a beautiful lake house on Grand Lake, Ok. for two days of R&R....what more could one want but, good friends, good wine, a fire and wonderful conversation.....so glad my friends are joining me in their 60's!!! Now if they would join me racing!!!!
Today started training again in full force (coach Jayhawk sent me my schedule) and I really think I can keep up with it....she was very kind to her mom. It was a little difficult to start up again but we went to the track at the gym and walked/ran for an hour....music really makes the time pass quickly....though I must say I was wanting to dance along some of the time!!! I thought about cutting my run short several times then decided If I finished my time that I would start putting up Christmas trees ( I do 11 trees and was anxious to get started) so tonight I have 3 small trees with grandchildren's pictures up!!! I like bribing myself....I can hear oosg now!!!!!
Had a bid of a problem with my left knee and top of my left foot when I tried to jog, hopefully Dr. Mike can help me there (they're going to wish they had never gotten me into this)!!
I've also decided to fund raise for the jingle bell run so, if anyone wants to join team "Great Gran" just let me know!!!
Thank you all for your encouraging posts....can't believe just how much I am really enjoying this!!!!

You are doing an amazing job, and keep up the great work!! I look forward to reading about your running.
Yep, you're right...Barb is a rockstar for sure.
Good for you!! Stay with it, you're doing awesome. I like to think of it as protecting the gains. After you build up so far, you won't want to miss because you want to protect how far you've come!
...and people wonder where my Christmas obsession comes from...hah!
We got into a debate yesterday about when the tree was going up.
I said 2 weeks.
He said 3-4.
Looks like when we get back from St. Kitts it'll finally get up.
Sadly, no new pre-lit tree for me this year. :( BUT...I'm okay with that because we're getting a new tree skirt. Wrigley pretty much nastified the old one.
Keep it up, mom!!
You rock, Mom!!!
You go Girl!!! Can't wait to hear more...run to the finish and keep blogging!
