My Mom is heading home today, and I’m sad to see her go. We’ve had a great visit even though we didn’t let her relax at all with all of the stuff we did. She’ll probably need a few days to recover from the crazy weekend - I know I will!
We are up early this holiday because MrZ is running the Cotton Row Run 10K today. We were going to run it together, but my pregnancy has thwarted that. After seeing the notorious hills the race is famous for yesterday? I’m very glad I’m not running it. This 10K is a popular one that people travel for simply because of this one hill in the race (at the end of about 3 miles of steady uphill running). The hill is so bad, the race directory actually said that even the elite runners don’t worry about making a good time with that hill thrown in the middle. It is SO STEEP guys - it’s painful just to look at. They evidently play the theme to Rocky at the foot of the last painful hill (it elevates 100ft in 200+ yards) to keep the racers going. I have to walk up the speed bumps I encounter when I run - there’s no way I’d make it up that hill.
I’m hoping to finally upload all of the pictures I’ve taken the last 2 weeks some time today. They are piling up on me and I really need to get to them. I hope you have a great holiday - filled with good food and no hills.
I’m still kind of trying to internalize the fact that you are PREGNANT! I’m so happy for you!
I want to see that hill!
Are you going to stop running entirely? Or are you allowed some time of program? I have no clue as what’s recommended for pregnant women.
you said PREGNANCY!!! In actual type and everything! I am so happy and hopeful for you and your family!
You can’t run cuz you’re pregnant! Yaaaay!
Preggy preggy preggy 
(I’m really, really happy for you. I know I sound a little silly, but that’s okay! :P)
Yeah, I wouldn’t have ran the race either!
Enjoy your holiday!
Wait. WHAT? I don’t check your blog for a week (only because I was in the middle of moving. I NEVER go that long) and now you’re pregnant? What the hell just happened? CONGRATULATIONS! That is wonderful news!!!
Congrats on your pregnancy.
I cannot wait to read about it.
So very happy for you
