My husband is so supportive and never complains, but I sometimes feel like I miss out on some things. But I love running and it is my alone time and I guess I am just selfish that way. <br /><br />Have a great week!Staceyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13620276307812518200noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2033550876088006360.post-69346161648426578562010-04-18T19:42:03.629-04:002010-04-18T19:42:03.629-04:00I too wish I had a running friend somedays!

Nice job on the 23!<br /><br />My hubby nearly always comments on everything he does (or could have been doing) while I'm gone on my long runs. I feel guilty sometimes but he doesn't seem to mind too much :)Jamiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06757049962850570389noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2033550876088006360.post-55313256810548693062010-04-18T17:58:59.950-04:002010-04-18T17:58:59.950-04:00the other day during my long run Andy swept the ha...the other day during my long run Andy swept the hardwood, polished it, did 3loads of laundry, vaccumed, and cleaned the bathrooms.

I want my family to understand that they are important and so am I. I want my kids to know that a mommy is also a person with their own needs and not just a caregiver to wait on them. <br /><br />It is difficult to balance it all but with all the roles mommys hold it is important to not lose ourselves in just one.Shellyrm ~ just a country runnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03822262051285512641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2033550876088006360.post-49307731846970123102010-04-18T09:47:45.164-04:002010-04-18T09:47:45.164-04:00I can see how as a mother (Im not a mother yet) th...I can see how as a mother (Im not a mother yet) that you would feel guitly. But it's not like you run 20 milers every weekend. Plus your with your kiddies all week long. Plus your a better mother and wife because you get out there and get that running time.

The entire time I am thinking about all the things I need to be doing at home or the fun stuff we could be doing instead. Drives me crazy!! Like I don't deserve a few hours to myself once a week.christinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15314804012623766895noreply@blogger.com
