Sweaty butt?

I completed my second training run last night. It wasn't half bad... which makes me think I should up the intensity but I don't want to rush things.    Thomas and the boys were home with my last night when I ran... and of course the boys were SO obsessed with the treadmill and what I was doing on it. I like to run with headphones so I can be 'in the zone' and all they wanted to do was talk... and about random things. Drawing, pumpkin seeds, the treadmill, school, going potty and they need me to wipe their but.. SERIOUSLY?! Your dad is in the other room! Go talk his ear off!! Don't get me wrong.. I love my kids to death.. but when I'm running.. pretend I'm not home! Like you do when you're doing crap you know you aren't supposed to.    Anyway, besides the bathroom inquiries from my children my run was excellent.

I have officially lost my mind. I have committed to run a 5k with my friend I shall call.. Killian Kristen.    Anyhoo, enough about her.. I've commited to this 5k which isn't SO bad. I love running. I just love doing it more when I'm asleep - Nothing wrong with that, right? It's the same as pretending I'm skinny while I eat an entire medium cheese pizza by myself.. and preteding the pizza is a tossed salad minus the dressing. It's good for me!     There is an upside to this thing. It's in February.. so I have plenty of time to get ready AND it's called the Chocolate Run. Now, when I envision this.. I see people lined along the running route passing out chocolate bars, hot chocolate, chocolate dipped chocolate... shall I go on? Then at the end of the race there is this huge chocolate fountain and you get to drink from it with large ladels.. but that is so far from reality. It's going to be freezing and they aren't even giving us any chocolate. T
