Ok- so Sat. I was like " la, la , la... I ran 14 miles and feel so great.. la, la, la..." yeah, classic runner high talking there!
Then I had to get out of bed Sun. & Monday! (not so great) Actually I feel really good except my right achilles- its not too bad, just tight when I first wake up, then I walk it off. But I decided not to pound pavement today because I don't want to aggravate the achilles anymore. I'm going to the gym to ride the bike later today. Then weight class tomorrow and back to pounding pavement the rest of the week!
CONGRATS to our Del Sol team who seriously ROCKED that race (as we knew they would!) And also to all you other bloggies who shined at the races this weekend!

| OK- I finally woke up today. Felt like I've been mentally asleep since my Sat. long run. Yesterday I blew off any exercise- then I couldn't sleep last night so I was up late and slept late today. When will I ever learn? So I snuck in a later spin class and it was WONDERFUL. I'm awake again! Made plans w/ the gals to run tomorrow. So I think I'm back on track. Spectrum's around the corner. I want to beat last years time! | |

Squeezed in 4 miles today. I was supposed to get up and do hills, but I wasn't feeling good about doing that w/ my achilles acting the way it has been. So I opted for a few flat miles, around 3.5 mi. the achilles was getting tight w/ some lovely crunchy/ grinding noises. Doesn't really hurt, but still makes me nervous. I'll just have to watch it I guess.
Otherwise a beautiful afternoon run, mid 50's, great t-shirt weather. Went out on a trail alone, no IPOD or garmin (not by choice- neither are working- bummer) But it was nice to just run alone w/ my thoughts, waving to passing runners & bikers...

| Nice, mellow 6 miler w/ Heather & Chris. Forgot to charge the garmin again- duh! So not sure of pace, but would figure 9:30-9:40. Achilles cooperated. Best workout all week! | |

Great 7 miler w/ Heather & Buff today. I wasn't feeling as smooth as yesterday's run, but still pretty good. We threw in a few rolling hills (pretty course up around Green Springs) and I was impressed that we kept a 9:00 average even with all the gabbing. In fact the last 4 miles were under 9:00 with the last 3 mi. about 8:35. So I'm happy with this run. I tried to stretch real good afterwards to avoid a tight achilles. I hope I'll be ready for Spectrum. I run again tomorrow. Then the fam is off to CA this Sun- Wed. for some Spring Break fun, can't wait! Hopefully slacking off those days won't affect too much at Spectrum on the 15th.
Have an excellent weekend!!

Couldn't resist sleeping in today! It was the perfect day to sleep in. My hubby's been working night shifts and he was actually home this morning so it was nice to wake up next to him (too much info for the blog probably- sorry...) Anyway, I should've met up with the gals for a long run, but the temptation of sleeping in and the achilles caused me to slack. The achilles was clicking a bit last night and I figure I should give it a teeny rest. I'm going to see if our hotel in CA has a treadmill so that I can hopefully get a few miles next week. This is somewhat of a taper week- got Spectrum next Sat. But its only a 10k, so probably shouldn't taper too much.
Anyhow- I won't be online until Thurs or Friday of next week- so all you bloggies have a great week! I hope I get to read those Sat. race reports before I leave town.
Happy Running! (or shuffling, whatever the case may be!)
