4 SHORT MILES ON THE TM AND PARP PLAY AT MY KIDS SCHOOL

Had a great day. Participated in PARP (Parents as Reading Partners) at my childrens school. It is a month long reading program to get kids reading. It kicked off today with a play about "once upon a time", where I played one of the seven dwarfs. I had a blast!!!

Yesterday I suprised BR411 by redecorating our house. I moved all the furniture around. I love the new set up, but today I was fairly sore. My house project yesterday had me moving furniture, etc, from 9am to 3pm. Felt fine while doing it, but woke this morning utterly exhausted (choosing to do this move yesterday was not the smartest move for me as Monday I did a ton of exercise), only to have to join in the school festivities today. The first play was put on at 10:15 for the AM kindergartners and 1st graders, then we had a long break and the second was put on for the PM kindergarteners and 2nd graders at 2:15pm

In between the shows I got a 4mile run in at the TM, with BR411 running on the TM next to me. Unfortuneately, my legs gave out at 4 miles, so BR411 didn't get to complete his 6 miles. Though I was exhausted, the miles felt good. Basically set the TM to 5.6 @ 0% incline and ran for 42:03. I would have taken today off, but since I did the move on Tuesday, I didn't get a run in, and I didn't want to go another two days with no run:( That happened over the weekend because of the snow, and I hate that!! Some day, we hope to have a TM, but right now our house is a little too small to accomodate one:(

But, today day was fantastic, and now I'm ready to crash LOL

You moved furniture around all by yourself? What a nice surprise! It's always so nice having a little change in the set-up.
