Hardcore or Delusional

I was having a pretty blah day and decided I would walk down to one of the fields J was umping at. I stopped at the library first and then was crazy and decided I should run at least to the field. As we get going, another Mom, with a stroller and her daughter walking with her, says to her daughter, " Let her through, she's hardcore and is running." Though I am far from hardcore, this little comment got me through a whole mile to the field. I stopped said hi to J and was going to let Peanut Butter play at the teeny park, but man-o-live with all the rain we got the the last month, the bugs are horrible. I had to put PB back in the stroller against her will and set off for home. Trying to save time I said just run the flipping thing. So block by block with a couple walk breaks I gaver, because I'm hardcore like that. I had to stop for a light which is right before the big uphill slope home and the bugs are buzzing and I pushed through to the top. I think I actually got what they call a runners high at the top. So either I was hardcore today by actually running 2.5 miles or just delusional.

You're hardcore, man. I think once I stop nursing I will be able to run again . . currently if I run my boobs: 1) hit me in the face cutting off my oxygen supply; 2) are horribly painful; and 3) leak like a geyser.

Good thing I bought that jogging stroller . . . *snort)
