I'm in training

...for a half marathon.  It's in six months.  I just got serious this week with workout plans, jump rope and 2 5lb dumbbells.  A friend of mine is also a personal trainer (handy much?) and she put together some plans and exercises.  I told her I thought I needed to work on my core...silly me.  She decided I needed all over toning.  And I'm getting an all over tune up.
But I love the way I feel.  It's like I actually finished something when my run and workout is over.
So this week I spent a lot of time with the jogging stroller and not so much time with the sewing machine.  Bummer, but I'll appreciate it in the long run.  I'm only 24 I should be out in the sunshine running down the roads while I still can.  I did however try 2 new recipes this week from the Moosewood cookbook.

I am always up for a good vegetarian meal.  My husband is not usually a fan.  But he like the muffins (because muffins aren't supposed to have meat anyways) and the polenta lasagna (I doubled the amount of spinach).

Little C sleeps the whole time I run.  It's kind of a funny combo seeing me struggle down the road and her just snoozing away.
But I have come up with a project that compliments the running, Little C needs some protection from the wind (no I'm not running that fast, it's just windy here).  I will have to think on it and come up with something cute.
