What are we thinking??

Jerry and I are runnning in the mini-marathon in Indianapolis in just a little over a month. We've been training since December. It has actually been going pretty well. Jerry can run faster and longer than me, but I'm improving. I actually ran for 90 minutes straight a few weekends ago, which was about miles. However, we were inside! Today, we finally had nice weather - 50 degrees, so we decided to run outside. Oh my heavens. We were supposed to run 10 miles. We got nearly 9 and I'm dead. I've done nothing today since we ran at 11. My knees hurt and my ankles. Jerry keeps asking me how old I am?! It was so much harder running outside. The hills and oh my, the wind! I kept praying for God to stop the wind! My face has been red all day - I'm going with a sunburn, but it is probably wind burn! That was the longest I've ever run and in just a few more weeks, I have to run 13.2 miles!? What were we thinking??!

The boys are doing fine. They are anxiously awaiting spring and shorts weather. We have one more week and then spring break. Hopefully it will be nice around here.

No pictures today, but prayers would be appreciated that I don't die on May 3!
