I have been away, and for that I apologize. There have been a lot of things going on here that I am not quite ready to talk about yet, but they are all good and happy, albeit busy.<\/p>\n<p>In the meantime, days of this summer have been hot and long, and in the throes of the dog days Jeff and I both started new jobs and laid low, seeking air conditioning and relaxation. Through it all I have tried to keep up the blog at GMS, our house, friendships, etc., and also keep up on my running schedule.<\/p>\n<p>We are running a half marathon in December, and though that&#8217;s now in only three months, I can say I don&#8217;t feel overwhelmed like I did when I agreed to do it. Be warned: I feel overwhelmed, for sure, but less so. I have been running, putting one foot in front of the other, all summer, taking off only when I had to for travel (or a sprained wrist) and when it just didn&#8217;t feel quite right. I&#8217;ve been trying to listen to my body, and I think that&#8217;s serving me well.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m headed out tonight for my first official half-marathon training run, and I am feeling tired of running at night already. I don&#8217;t know what the solution is (OK I do it&#8217;s run before work but I just don&#8217;t know if I can get organized to do that in the next few weeks) but for now that means 10 pm runs and eating light dinners so I can go out and pound pavement.<\/p>\n<p>I miss this space, and I want to be around more to let you guys know what&#8217;s going on, and probably will be ramping up my posts now that I crave an outlet for running talk (especially since I haven&#8217;t done a ton of yoga since I injured my wrist!) so in advance, sorry\/notsorry about all the running talk.<\/p>\n<p>In the meantime &#8211; can you guys send me jams? I am SEVERELY lacking in tunes I love, and I have been listening to podcasts when I run, which is fine for long runs, but sometimes I need some serious motivation. I also need to really connect with a song to find it motivational, so this is sometimes exhausting.<\/p>\n<p>Favorite running songs? Titanium, by Sia\/David Guetta; Gone, by Kelly Clarkson; Maybe They&#8217;re On To Us, by Needtobreathe; Want to Want Me by Jason Derulo &#8211; if you can find the theme in these, and come up with a playlist for me, I swear to the earth\u00a0I will make you dinner for a month.<\/p>\n<p>In the meantime, I&#8217;m off to bang out three miles. Sleep well, chicks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hi chickens. I have been away, and for that I apologize.
