Training for 13.1 miles

Well, not exactly what you might think.

Danielle has been sick the last couple of days with an ear infection. She refuses to be put down for more than a few moments and demands to remain in constant motion, which translates into me traversing our house day and night for nearly 2 and a half days! Yes, I am certain that I have walked, bounced, lunged, squatted, side-stepped, tip-toed and swayed for at least a distance of 13 miles! All while holding a 13lb weight. And while singing Twinkle Twinkle Little Star.

My 1/2 half marathon in 3 weeks should be a breeze after this!

  1. I can vouch for this. I hold Danielle here and there but she prefers her Mama's motion. I guess I don't lunge deep enough.

  3. I like to sing up to 29 and back down again to "Twinkle, Twinkle." Just to mix it up a bit.

  4. So sorry to hear this--tough for both of you. Hope she is improving. Those ear infections are painful. m/g
