Ah! Got 8 hrs. last night. Feels so good! I had set my alarm for the 6am weight class knowing I wouldn't really get up... I WILL get some toning and stretching in today though. Its my New Yrs. Resolution to make it to the weight class 1x a week, but last week after I went to the class, I was sore for 4 days. I decided not to do that to myself before the 1/2. So I will do upper body and abs today at home. I probably will not run today, unless I hook up w/ Sara this afternoon for an easy 4.

Wed- challenging 6 miler w/ strides

Thurs- easy 5

Friday- walk to stretch out legs before race

This is my modge podge taper plan. Just listening to my body.

Update: Snuck in 3 easy miles while my daughter was at sports practice. Ave pace 9:43. Also did some push ups. Will get in some more ab & arms in the morning at the gym. Decided to go to spin instead of run tomorrow morning..

Weight: 0.00

Nothing like a modge podge. Listening to your body is always best. Great pic by the way! What a good lookin family!

Hey you have a plan! I never have a plan - I am starting to realize I need one. I can't wait to read your race report - you will do fantastic!

Thanks guys!

Bethany- I was checking out your blog- you are very smart about listening to your body. I'm trying to focus on that too. You're a great example to me! (plus aren't you a shorty like me- go short chics! yay!)

Jody- You have a plan! You are very consistent, maybe you have a mental plan you just haven't written down yet. The Olympic Oval is cool. I took my kids ice skating there over Christmas break, I kept glancing over at the runners on the track w/ longing...Sounds like you know where to go for butt kickings!
