Finding the balance...



I'm a mother.  I'm a spouse.  I'm a friend.  I'm a runner.  I'm a volunteer.  I'm an employee.  I'm a lot of things and I often wonder how I keep it all together and not lose my mind.  Some days I do, but most of the time I find ways to keep balanced. 

The two best ways I can find to keep the balance are spending time with my family and running.  Today I did the latter, taking 36 minutes out of a crazy busy day to go into my own thoughts and feel my feet beneath me on the pavement. 

On those days that feel like I'm diving off the deep end, I just remember what keeps me balanced and take a healthy dose.  Happy trails!!!

P.S.  next miles on the blog will be HAT 50k miles....

Stats -
Miles:  4.2
Time:   35:58 (average pace of 8:33  per mile)
Feeling:  the ankle is hanging in there and should be fine Saturday
