TTT

Three weeks left of school and three randoms just for you!  

Enjoy!

Worn...Let me premise this with I know the things that are causing me to be worn are small in comparison.  Have you ever gotten to the point where you say, "Ok I'm all done!"?  When you just don't think the hits will ever stop coming?  Perhaps this is where God needs to take me so that I throw up my hands and He can just come in a take it on like it should be...but boy oh boy could there please be an easier way?  A lot is too personal to post and is really not my story to tell, but those people who live in bubbles are starting to look less kookie!  Poor hubs went to the doctor yesterday and the diagnosis is a torn ACL and torn meniscus requiring surgery this summer.  I know this is so hard on him and I really feel awful.  I wish I could take it away but unfortunately I can't!  Add to that some tough news about Emma's school (we will just be eating pb&j all year to make tuition) and our family needs a time to just be....to rediscover what it feels like to just have fun without stress!  Sorry for the Debbie Downer but it is what it is!

Morning...Today I'm home to bring Aub to the doctor (see told you it was just all done!) and I'm hoping to sneak in a morning run before the hubs need to leave for work.  As the school year draws to a close, I can feel myself start to crave those early morning outdoor runs...before the world wakes up!  I love the way the world looks and even smells that early in the morning...so fresh and ready for another day!  Coincidentally that is how I usually feel after one of my morning runs...ready to take on the day!

Hit those Hills...So tomorrow I will write about the 10k that kick my butt but one theme that is coming up in almost all my races is that the hills kill me.  Now one thing that is true is that as long as I live in New England (and that is probably for the next 50 years) I am going to run hills.  I also know that my September ZOOMA Half Marathon (register to run with me and use the code CCAMB4 for your discount) has hills.  If I'm going to rock that race, then I'm going to have to train hills.  Heck if I'm going to run period I'm going to have to train hills!  Yesterday I ran around our neighborhood and realized that it is pretty hilly...then again everything seems hilly when you're pushing a dualie!  I've been scoping areas to find hills I can do repeats on.  I'm coming for you hills!
