I ♥ Spring & Wednesday Winner

I  ♥ Spring
Actually, I double ♥ Spring. Spring has definitely sprung in NOLA. It's the kind of weather that makes you want to quit your desk job and become roofer or a landscaper just to be outside. Or just leave a little early so you can get a run in with your kids before dinner. That's just what I did.

Yesterday,  I was able to use some sneak out (use flex time actually) of work a little early and go get MM & Li from school. As soon as we got home, I changed into my new brooks running skirt (review to come) and load my girlies into the double jogger. I was so happy to be out running. The first mile felt really slow. It's been a few months since I ran with the double jogger and I have been resting my legs after a race. But I found my rhythm. The nice little impromptu afternoon 5k was great. It's so nice just to run sometimes.

Wednesday Winner
This week, I was lucky enough to be interview about my love running by one of my fav bloggie running friends. You should stop on over to Robin's Turtle Running blog and learn more about me. ;)

Happy Bloggie Valentine's

Melissa at littlempknits came up with this idea for us to show our bloggie friends some love. We ladies, mommas, running chicks are hard on ourselves and internalize the negative things people say to us.

The idea is to make new bloggie friend and share the love. We send each other cards and/or gifts and check out their blog. I  love love love this idea. I mean, who doesn't love presents and new friends.


My Love My Neighbor buddy is Jill at runwithjill. I'm looking forward getting to know her thru her blog. She is a real runner (as in she's a running coach and in training for Boston Marathon) and a mom. She sent me lots of good stuff and card with a funny note.

Hope everyone out there gets lots of good hugs & snuggles for Valentine's and thru out the year.
