Winning at Life

I had this long insightful post prepared, then I read it and realized I had no idea what I was even talking about. Ever happen to you? Eh, you win some and you lose some. 

Over the past few weeks I feel like I'm channeling crazy tiger blood Charlie Sheen, minus the all night ragers and hookers.  I just feel like I don't make any sense and I'm all types of scattered.  Let's hope the next few weeks take a turn for the better, or I'm gonna have to take a trip to the loony bin.

We have had a number of enjoyable moments since my last blog post.  We took a day trip to Chester and Morristown a couple of weeks ago and last weekend I took a ride to PA with the MIL and SIL for some outlet shopping!  See, life ain't all crazypants.

Another piece of exciting news...we have a new family member!  My parents have a brand new lady in the house, Miss Emma Julianne Marrs!  Isn't she just adorable?!  I can't wait to meet her in person!


Now, onto the running report...
I seem to hit a wall every few days where I really hate to run, but about a mile in I remember why I love it. We made it through 'Heat Wave #4', as our local weatherman called it. The temperatures are much more enjoyable now! My dad has started forwarding me his running info! He doesn't run with a tracker, but approximate is better than nothing!

As you can clearly see, my father is kicking my rear end when it comes to running consistently.

Many more miles to go and lots of room for improvement!  Happy Running!
