Have you ever.....

been at the gym and after your run you go to do some core work and you go to lay down on the decline bench only to realize on your way down that you did WAY, WAY, WAY, too much core work the day before and your stomach is screaming at you and you are pretty sure that there is no way you are going to be able to do the 50 curl ups you were planning on but you don't want to look like a total moron because you took all that time adjusting the decline bench, laying your towel down and finding the right tunes on your ipod so if you got up without even doing one curl up people would point and laugh and mock you so you somehow manage to crank out about 10 of them then roll off to the side of the bench almost landing on your hands and knees but pretend like you meant to do that, quickly wipe down the bench and move on?

No?

Ya, me neither. Just checking.

Core Club take 1

Today I did a non eventful 3 mile treadmill run then followed it up with the 1st day of the Core Club Workouts courtesy of Jamoosh over at the Last Mile Lounge.
 I have to admit I have been a total slacker at the core workouts ever since I moved to Arizona.  I use to be pretty decent when I lived in Colorado because I had a certain workout instructor--SCOTT--who would kick my butt every Monday and Friday and sometimes Saturday but alas those days are behind me.  I think all of the core workouts went pretty well except I did have to adjust on the Push Up ones...Why do I suck at push ups?  I've been doing them forever and yet I'm still such a wussy.

No I'm not posing!  Why do you ask?

The plank was going okay until the 2YO decided I needed to put in a little more effort.

Pictures courtesy of my 10YO who thinks his mom is a wuss.  Laugh now buddy!  Your day will come :)

Well since yesterday's post I'm probably now known as the poop girl so not to disappoint I thought I'd share the latest in poop news.  Apparently pooping runs in the family and today when the pictured 2YO was suppose to be napping she decided to remove not only her dress but her diaper full of you know what and it was all over!  So it's been somewhat of a crappy weekend.  Is it Monday yet?  Something for Adam over at The Boring Runner to look forward to as the time approaches for his own little pooper scooper to arrive.  Now you can see how I do the 2-3 or was it 4? loads of laundry everyday. Don't worry though Adam, the little stinkers are the best!  Can you argue with this cute little face?

Happy Running!
NRR

P.S.  Back to school tomorrow!!! Can I get a Woot Woot!
