Races!
I've finally got some races coming up! They creeped up really quickly!! I'm hoping my body will adjust to the madness!

Jogging strollers
Now that our little one is here (yes he is! And he's so amazing!), and I'm confined to walks (NOT RUNS) outside for a little while longer, I've been finding that I've been interested in getting myself equipped for when I do get the green light to get back to pounding the pavement.
Although it'll still be a while before he can accompany me and my husband on our runs via his chariot, i.e. a jogging stroller, I find myself researching such strollers.
It's kinda crazy how expensive these things are, especially the ones with the best reviews.
The BOB ones are always best-rated, but come at a high price tag. We kinda like the Tike Tech X3 sport -- we can use our existing car seat with it, so that's an added perk!
Now, we just have to wait 5 or so more months before he can come out with us. And what do you know? That'll be my peak race season! I'm so excited!

They both win!
It turns out that they kept both marathons! YAY!!
The Toronto Marathon was moved to May. I'm happy about this because that means I can still run it one day and I won't have to trek to Mississauga to satisfy my post-winter-race itch. YAY!

MY MARATHON!!!
Which city marathon should we keep?
One marathon alone might be stronger, but deciding which gets the nod could be tough

I'm partial to the Waterfront marathon because it's prettier, and well, I've run it before. In any case, regardless of which one they eliminate, I hope they mix the courses so that it'll still cover the beach.

A Midsummer Night's Run
Today, actually, right now, I would be on my way to running 30K at A Midsummer Night's Run. At this point though, I can't imagine what it would feel like to be running for what would be around 8K by now, with 22K more to go.
I'm not running and haven't been running for a while for a number of reasons. The most important reason though is actually the same as the most important thing I'm doing right now.
I'm housing a baby!
That's right, a life has decided to rent space for personal growth in my uterus for the next 7ish months, and despite the way I'm feeling, I completely welcome it and surrender all control of my body for the success of this life's development.
I will, however, hopefully keep running, and that will be a new adventure that I'll definitely write about.
