i don't even know where my garmin charger is- packed away somewhere. I've been playing the game of who's can i borrow? Crazy how you have one finishing kindergarten and another starting up--- cherish the time :)

Aw that's great, I seriously love so much when kids are polite and have nice manners, I think it makes such a big difference in how they are perceived. It's more and more rare these days so kudos to you for teaching your son those skills! And it sounds like you have the right attitude on not running - it majorly sucks, but it does give you some extra time for all that other stuff in life (and a break from some hassles!).

Great progress on the push ups! That is one area that I could use a lot of work on.

Sorry about you being out for so long. Take it easy as you come back into it. I hope your leg feels much better soon!

Hang in there!! Rest is best and you'll be back at it soon if your patient.
I'm telling ya these darn kids need to stop growing asap!!
It's so fun to see them grow and yet so sad at the same time.

You're awesome for resting. I can't say I've done the same. Darn race obligations.

Rest up chickie!!! You'll be out there soon! Yes progress is beautiful!! Way to go...off to do some push ups!

I agree that forced rest is kind of nice. The rest part -- not the not running. And, dang, on the push-ups! I need to work on this!

2013-05-23T08:33:00.983-06:00

you progressed 5 push ups in a week...oh man I need to get on this, I am still working on my push ups.

I took a week of running for the first time in ages and it's helped me do better with recovery days now, which shocked the heck out of me

Aww! Your little kidlets are getting big! But that...

Glad you are enjoying the rest! Congrats on your little boy finishing Kindergarten! Time sure does fly!

Congrats to your son! I bet he is looking forward to summer now.
It sounds like even if you can't run you really are making the best out of it. 20 challenges is awesome! I hope that this next week goes by fast...are you planning on training a short/easy run next week?

Great job on the push up challenge! I have been a...

Great job on the push up challenge! I have been a slacker lately with the UA stuff. I have been sick and basically haven't done anything in 4 days. I feel like a slug! Congrats to your son! So exciting!

2013-05-23T06:40:13.664-06:00

You are so smart to rest! Not doing so is exactly how we get into trouble and end up with long layoffs. And your attitude is great.

Time goes so fast with kids--the milestones just fly by!

2013-05-23T06:02:51.578-06:00

Big changes, one finishing and one starting kindergarten...exciting, but hard too I'm sure.

Glad you have come to some kind of acceptance on your running. I can't say I've done the same with my wrist. I feel like someone stole something from me. It's finally gorgeous weather and I should be biking and swimming...and getting prepared for my first tri. I'm hoping my MRI will maybe give me that peace...at least I'll know something for sure.

Hope you are able to run again soon!

I've been a little lacking in reading my fav blogs lately. Sorry to hear that you're out of commission for running, but you are so right. My running buddy has been suffering from achilles tendonitis and just starting slowly to come back. I myself have had several "time outs" and it is hard to accept that taking a break is the best thing for you.

Hang in there. You will come back strong and ready to go!

2013-05-23T05:43:21.000-06:00

Mike and I were having this conversation yesterday about how it stinks that we are injured now (he has tendonitis in his achilles) when it's so glorious out and all we want to do is run. It's like a mean joke.

Awww congrats little man!!! I'm sorry you stil...

2013-05-23T05:42:04.717-06:00

Awww congrats little man!!! I'm sorry you still are off the road, really I am! Keep up with that great attitude, you will be lacing up again soon.

2013-05-23T05:33:31.893-06:00

Congrats to your kindergarten grad! :) I completely understand the acceptance thing with not running. May you be back at it MUCH more quickly than my lame self!
