Subject: RE: kaburns1214 Mentor Group 2012 - CLOSEDGood morning all,Some of you know me, as I was a part of the mentor group over a year ago and dropped off the face of this earth after some complications with my pregnancy.Fast forward a year - I have a beautiful 3 month old baby named Laina, and she is doing wonderfully.Yesterday, with Kelly's support, I ran my first post pregnancy race. I cannot than Kelly and more importantly, her mom (for babysitting ), enough!!!!! I really pushed myself, and Kelly being there forced me to push harder than I would have had she not been. My time was essentially one minute per mile slower than my performance at this race last year. I finished in under 27 minutes.So now I'm psyched, but now I am struggling with how to juggle training with working and being a mom to a newborn on an extremely unpredictable eating schedule. Add to that that I am pumping breastmilk for her for 2 hours a day. I need a routine but an on demand feeding schedule makes it extremely hard.At any rate, thanks again to Kelly and Maureen. I'm back. I also stalk this group daily! Great job Carrie!!!!Have a great day! |
