[quote=Anonymous]I'm five months postpartum with my second, so lately my first thought is how I can feel my back fat jiggle (I usually have a small waist).  Then I get into it and forget about that, start thinking about a race I have coming up, or how much longer I'll go for.  I usually run pushing my toddler in the jogging stroller, so most of the time I'm talking with her since she talks all. the. time. (Love her to pieces, but it's true)  So, lots of discussion about snacks, the horses we're going to run by, milk, more snacks, and can we press the arrow while waiting to cross the street.

Lately, when she sees a Prius (which we have), she desperately bellows, "LIKE OUR CAR!!!"  I went for a long run without her on Sunday, and of course at the first Prius that's all I could think of.

A lot of times I'll break the run into segments; I rowed competitively for years, and still naturally break things into 500m segments.  So, a quarter of the way through a run, I think, first 500 down, then the next, etc.  If I have my Garmin on, I try to guess what my pace is before it tells me.  On my last run, I thought, it would be less than 80 minutes, and I was in labor longer than that, so it can't be that bad.  Ha![/quote]
