Ran my eight mile route, avg pace 8:19 and then went to the gym and did the elipitical for 30 min at 10 resistance. Only time running feels hard is on the hills, defintely losing it there, maybe need to take them slower to keep my heart rate down.

So I have been MIA for a few months (still running and entering my mileage on private view). For those of you who dont know I am 16 weeks pregnant! Now that I am feeling better and actually feel like sitting at a computer to enter more than my mileage I am going to start blogging again.
Went to go meet my friend but it was raining so she slept in. I ran back to my house because I didnt feel like running loops to stay close to home in the dark and rain. Went to the gym and did 45 min on elipitical and then thought I would just walk hard on the treadmill at a steep incline to break it up. Walked for 5 min and decided I rather be running and right now I need to take advantage of every minute that I can be running comfortably:) So went home changed my clothes and headed out in light rain. Thought my legs would be tired from the elipitcal but felt great, amazing how good I am still feeling while running. I miss doing hard runs but if I can just maintain a solid base through the rest of this pregnancy I would be so happy. Ran one of my 6 mile loops. Could have kept going and really wanted to but I need to be careful with not overdoing it since I had already gone to the gym. | |

Met my friend for an 8.5 mi run (avg 8:39), the fog was crazy this morning and it was so warm from the cloud coverage. I could have easily been in shorts and t-shirt and still would have been warm. Felt great on the run til the last mile and then my left hip kinda locked up and shot a pain down to my knee, made it back and was planning on adding on but I could bearly do a slow jog. It just felt like it needed to pop so bad. So I went to the gym to do the elipitical to loosen it up, which really helped. So did that for 30 min. I am sure this is stemming from my body adjusting to accomodate this growing person inside me! This is the first time since I got pregnant that something bothered me. When you run easy everyday all those little aches and pains go away.
weights too. | |

| Met up with my friend for an 8.5 mile loop. The first two miles are uphill and hills are my enemy lately. We were both kinda of draggin the first half of the run (did weights and squats/lunges last night, so my legs were tired) then felt good from then on. Felt good after and had a few min so added on another 1.5 miles so I would not feel bad about eating Cafe Rio and birthday cake tonight! avg pace 8:48 | |

| Plan orginally was to do 8 or 9 and then go do the elipitical for 30 min at the gym. Ran 9 and then drove to the gym with exactly 35 min to spare before I needed to be home, well no elipitcal was available so I drove home and changed into new running clothes and out the door I went for another couple miles. avg pace 8:23. | |

| I usually dont run with the girls in my neighborhood on wednesdays because they do a hill workout and my heartrate sky rockets on hills but they were just doing one of our reg 10.5milers so I jumped at the chance to join them. Felt great, the first half my legs were a little tired but the second half felt great and I even added on a little at the end to give me 12. Will do weights tonight after work. avg pace 8:35 | |

So tired when I woke up, really thought about staying in bed but with it being tax season my husband gets up early so I knew I wouldnt be able to go back to sleep with him getting up and showering. Told myself I would just run 6 and if I felt good I would add on after. First couple miles all three of us were dragging but gradually started to perk up and ended up adding 2 miles after reg 6. One of the other girls joined me so that was nice to have the extra company. avg pace 8:49 |

| Had a training at work today so had to get up early instead of getting my usual friday sleep in but nice to get it done early and out of the way. Felt fantastic, had to stop at my house after 4 miles for a little pit stop. THat baby is definetly starting to push on my bladder:) avg pace 8:32 |

| Had a big group today. One of our old running buddies moved back from Logan and then a couple other girls came, one that just had a baby and the other doesnt usually come on saturdays with us. Felt like our old group back together again. Were just missing 2 other girls and we would have been complete.. Ran 8 and then a few of us added on a few more. Felt really really good. Just the last mile got a cramp in my calf. Will use my stick and scrape it and hopefully it will go back to normal. avg pace 8:42 (with a little walking waiting for one of the girls and then a short water stop). | |

I am just amazed at how good I am still feeling running, the first miles lately my belly feels a little heavier but then I dont even notice it the rest of the run. I was for sure by now there would be no way I could still be running 8-10 miles more than once a week. I know the day will come when I will have to start cutting some miles back but for now I am going to just soak up every mile I can!

Another fabulous run with great friends. The first 8 miles we were clipping along, after the 2 mile uphill everytime anyone of us looked at our GPS we were about 7:30's and I felt great running that pace.. My heartrate was great and I just felt fantastic. Two of the girls stopped at a little over 8 miles and then my other friend and I added on a cool down, way nice easy relaxed pace.

Got in to my hotel late night before and was exhausted from getting up early to run 10 on wed, and then working and then driving to salt lake. And what exhausted me the most is walking into Babies R us and feeling completly overwhelmed by everything. Almost had an anxiety attack and had to leave. TOO MUCH baby stuff in that store and dont know what half of it is used for!
Lots off walking around today but ate too many sweets though! |

| Had a fantastic run. It went by so fast, it seemed like I just started and then I was done. When I run I really forget that I am pregnant, so far I dont feel my belly is heavy or pressure, in fact I really forget my belly is even there. The weather again was gorgeous. Thinking I may go get a pedicure today, my feet deserve and its getting uncomfortable to paint my own. Running 12 down the marathon course, cant wait! I have not been on it since marathon day. It has taken me this long to finally want to go back on it after that crazy day. I think the spring weather just gets me excited! avg pace 8:30 | |

What a fun day today. Met Jody and ran 3.4 miles out to the finish line to catch the buses. Told my husband and Jody earlier that I thought I could pull off a 45 with the downhill but wasnt going to push myself to make it happen but would be happy with anything since I am just so dang happy that I still running and feeling great. Felt great the entire race, saw KellieS and talked to her for a split second while running(and lots of other bloggers before and after the race)Ended up coming in at 45 flat. Was very happy with that. Saw TONS of friends and chatted and had my belly rubbed alot. My little guy is a trooper to put up with getting jostled around all the time! Ran back to my in-laws after the race to cool down. Now I am going to relax and veg out today!
Oh and I am SO SO HAPPY that my good friend AmberG (on the blog) WON for the womens and that Dustin took the title for the mens. Good job both of you!!! | |

Slept in and ran after work. Nice and warm! Hopefully I got a hint of some color started to my pasty white winter skin. My husband was nice enough to point out how white my legs were on saturday in my shorts at the race:) Felt pretty darm good today. Legs were sore from squats/lunges and weights yesterday but warmed up over the run.

Had a great group today, Court, Heidi, Tia and Cheri. It was lots of fun and we had a great run. Ran our usual ten mile route. After I felt so good and it is so nice outside that I did not want to be done, so added on a little extra around the neighborhood. Wanted to really keep going but know I needed to be done. Lots of yard sales today!

| Ohh felt so much better today! yeah because yesterday was not a great feeling run but I think my blood sugar got really low. I think my little guy has been on growth spurt this week and I dont think I got enough fuel in me. I made the decision to not go with my running group, they were running 12 down the marathon course and after yesterday I was worried about keeping up and running 12. Decided to stick around close and take my cell phone if I needed Garrett to come get me. I planned to run 8 and if felt good then would add around the neighborhood. I felt so much better and just took it really easy. Had to stop and walk once to breath out a side stitch but then was good to go. I ended up adding on more than planned because since my body was agreeing with the run today I did not want it to end. Missed my group alot but was glad I went on my own so I could go at my own pace and not slow them down. | |

Excuses, Excuses, Excuses....definetly dont feel as guilty making them when I am pregnant! So all you women you have been prego will understand why I didnt want to get up this morning to run. Finding a comfortable position to sleep is the not easiest task to do, I have found this to be one of the most challenging things about being pregnant. My hips start to ache, my arm falls asleep then the other arm falls asleep, my shoulders hurt and my baby thinks its fun to play all night long and dont forget that small bladder either.So this was my night last night along with everyother night. About 4 am woke up for the who knows what time and didnt feel exhausted and thought I am for sure getting up to run because this is just not working (sleep) but then about 10 min before my alarm was supposed to go off I rolled over and fell into the MOST COMFORTABLE position, nothing ached and I felt like I was in heaven. There was no way I was moving out of that spot even if it meant I missed my run!!! So there you go, I think that is pretty dang good reason to stay in bed! But dont think I was completely lazy. I had errands to run after work and got home a little later, was starving and knew I needed to eat , if I ate there was no way I could handle a run and a snack was not going to tide me over. I ate dinner and then went for a 6 mile brisk, power walk. Took 1:30 min. My legs did feel like they got a pretty good workout from it. Dont know where to really put these miles . But at least I did do something. Plan on doing my weights while I watch dancing with stars. |

| Ran with all the girls and then added on a little extra to make 8. So glad a couple of the girls were still sore and tired from their saturdays run so we were able to just take it really easy today. Good for me...another day I can keep up with them. I am hoping to be able to keep up with them at least til 30 weeks.

Ran with Peg and Heidi and had a fantastic run! Felt very good, did get one side stitch but was able to breath it out without having to walk. Weather was warmer this morning. Right heel was little sore from walking the past 2 nights- had a dr's appt and only a 1.2 weight gain for the month-yay!

Crazy how yesterday I ran in shorts and tee and felt warm and today I had all my winter gear back on! I dont have my avg pace, turned off at 6.3 miles and forgot to start again but good thing I know the mileage by heart on this course. Felt FANTASTIC today!! | |

Now I get to go to the Gestational diabetes testing-not exciting about drinking a super sugary drink. Work so hard to avoid processed sugar and then I get to gulp a bunch down!

What a great morning. Usually I end up on my own on fridays but lately I have friends that want to go! Today Kelli and TylerS joined me and a couple of my reg running buddies. It was so fun to have them. It was great getting to know them better and Tyler was so patient to just take it easy with us and Kelli is so FUN to talk to!I felt so incredibly good. I added on a little extra and really wanted to keep going but needed to get back. I know I say this alot but I am so GRATEFUL that I feel so good running!!!! I told my husband the same thing this morning when I got home and his response was "I am SO GRATEFUL you can still run, I think its more for MY sanity than yours" So apparently I get a little ornery when I dont run!! Now off for a fun day of getting my hair done and lunch with all my running friends.

| Ran with the girls on our reg ten. Legs felt like bricks today, so heavy and tired. Probably those squats and lunges yesterday. Other than being a little more tired today I overall felt very good. I rubbed a HUGE blister on the bottam on my foot today though. My feet and the extra weight and the way I carry it must makes things different and shift. Crazy! | |

| Met Court early to run a few miles (she needed to go longer today) and then added on a 1.5 after. Felt really good today.

I definetly think not be able to do speedwork, long runs or race all out has made me really appreciate what I was able to do before.

Ran an easy run with Nat, I was glad when she showed up and said her legs were really tired from boot camp, then I wouldnt feel as bad making her go slower for me when she is a speedy thing. Felt very good! No complaints-have had a awesome week of running. I think I am in the nesting phase because I have been cleaning out everything in my house and am so excited to get started on the rest of my list today. I love throwing stuff away and having clean and organized closets/shelves and drawers. Such a good feeling. DI has gotta love me right now!

Ran with the girls and felt great. Left hip got a little achy towards the end. Going to see April tonight to have her work on some knots in my back and will have her go over my hips as well. May take tomorrow off, feel like my hips have been shifting a little more and just want to be extra careful.

55 min elipitcal at gym, OB dr wanted me to try physical therapy that specialize in womens health issues. So went and tried and dont think I will go back. She thinks its my piriformis muscle that spasmd and is pinching some nerves. Who knows, all I know is that it really really hurts and has not let up hardly at all. It is the sharpest pain with every step, getting up and down and any sudden rotation. I am embarrassed to go anywhere because I know people are thinking I must be in labor with the way I walk.
Thank goodness for the elipitcal although I hate it, but it is helping keep me sane....somewhat.

| Yayyy! I can almost walk with no pain. I can feel my hip a little but I no longer walk with a limp and the sharp pain is GONE. I decided to completely rest it for more than 1 or 2 days. So I have not done the elipitcal this week so far. Tonight or tomorrow I will start back up on it and then hopfeully add some power walking outside or on the treadmill and get back to my twice a week weights too. I really want to try to some lgt running miles this weekend but dont know if i dare. I just feel really large right now but am trying hard to watch what I eat so i dont pack on uneccesary weight. For some reason its easier for me to eat really good when I am working out. Thanks for everyone for all the nice comments and for thinking of me! | |

60 min on elipitcal at gym, (21 min on the one without the push and pull with arms and 39 on the one with the arm motion).They guy next to me passed some wind and I thought I was going to vomit for a second. It was the worse I ever smelled! On the plus side I couldnt feel anything in my glute/hip doing the elipitcal but just felt tight when I got off, came home and did some of the stretches the PT showed me last week and then some upper body weights. Feel the best I have so far, walking around the house I feel back to normal. I have to go out and run errands and hopfully it will stay that way even with walking around alot. I thought I might try running today after the elipitcal but decided not too yet.... Maybe tomorrow or next week.....
Going to go buy a foam rolller today to use on my hips, I have talked to many runners who use one and love it. | |

Its really Tues June 9 when I am actually posting this post.
SUPRISE....... Little Taylor Michael Jacobsen decided he just couldnt wait to be here and arrived 5 weeks early. He weighed in at 5 lb 9 oz and 19 inches long (thanks to an enormous cone head-so maybe really 17-18 in long). He in the NICU right now and will be probably til next week. He is doing really well but did have a little setback today with his bilirubin count and will have to be under the lights for a couple days and then go back to working on feeding. He required some help to breath at first but quickly did not need that anymore. I am doing and feeling really good. Sheesh my delivery was a piece of cake, I guess staying active really does make you have a fast delivery. The nurses and dr were shocked how fast I went. My water broke Sat morning at 6. Got to hospitial at 7 ( not feeling contractions yet) at 8 got ck'd and started to feel some cramping (+2) , got to my room at 9 and started to feel harder contractions(+3) got my epidural at 10:30-11:00 (+6) 12:30 (8) and then at 1:15 I started to feel like I needed to push, nurse came back at 1:40 and ck'd and said you are having this baby right now! In about 5 min called and got the dr and the NICU team, pushed through 3 rounds of contractions and he was born at 2:05. I am moving around great and really have had no after pain. Let me just tell you how AMAZING the all staff is at DRMC in the L&D, NICU and mom/baby unit and Dr/ Lunt . For having a pre-term baby and expecting the worse tthey calmed me down and have been nothing but PHENOMONAL. They have an amazing team down here! I feel so blessed to have my family in their care. I will keep ya posted on Taylor. | |

I cant wait, plan on walking the next couple weeks and then ease back into the running. Cant wait! May even run the Bryce 1/2 even my hubby will let me sneak away for a night! | |

30 min on the elipitcal and then I know I am going to get alot of flak for this but my body FEELS ready, ran four 8 min miles at 2% incline on TM and felt great, felt so so so easy! I guess it helps when you dont have a baby pressing on all your internal organs. I know people will say it to soon to run but I will listen to my body and what feels right for me. | |
