A bit sore today, but not too bad. Mostly stiff ankles & lower calves. I've decided I'm not doing Strider's 1/2. Instead I will just do Run for Kids 5k in April and try to PR, then Hurricane 1/2 in May. On Saturdays I'll be doing long runs w/ Sole Sisters & another friend who's training for a 50K.
Enjoying every bit of this lazy Sunday- kids have to go back to school tomorrow- Spring Break is over- whahh.... | |

Was supposed to get up and meet Heather for a 6 miler, but I felt crummy! Sore throat, and stiff legs from the race Sat. I hoped sleeping another couple hours would help. My legs feel a bit better, but still feel a cold coming on- yuck.
I think I'll try to get out for a little 3 or 4 miler this afternoon. | |

Weight Lifting class this morning. Wow- the weights feel heavy after taking a week or so off! And I'm so TIRED after the class. BUT I did it ! And I feel GREAT about that! Now tomorrow Heather's trying to drag me on a 14 miler (she's training for a 50K!) So I guess I'll do a longish run tomorrow, just listen to the body and see how far I feel like going.
Just got back from vacation so its time to plan another! (hee hee...) I admit it, I'm a vacation addict, a junkie! Just booked a flight to FL for this summer. My in laws live down there and that's where I'm from so there's lots of family to see and its easy to rationalize. Just gotta try to keep the Easter candy away so I can be beach ready for June! (Only had the money for the flight now, so I guess we'll be sleeping on the street and walking to all our destinations...) | |

| 12 miler today. Just tagging along w/ Heather & Buff as they train for Boston & a 50k. My next race isn't until Hurricane 1/2 in May (oh and an April 5k). I ran w/ them for about 9.5, then left and ran home for the 12 mi. total. I think they got about the same distance in. We averaged 9:30ish for the first 9.5 while all 3 of us were together then I slowed down to 10:40ish/miles for the last uphill 2.5. My body was sluggish- still recovering from 10k last Sat. AND I have had low mileage weeks the last 2 weeks so my body just wasn't into it. But I'm glad I made myself get out there this morning. I think I'll spin tomorrow and run again Fri & Sat. Hope to get my weekly mi. average back up to mid 20s this week. | |

Slept in. Felt great. Body really wanted it. Lower calves are kinda tight from race Sat. then long run so soon afterwards. But feels like it will get walked off today. Alot on the plate today: work, cleaning house (RS mtg here tonight), and packing and getting ready to leave town AGAIN tomorrow. Not really keen on leaving town again, but have some family from FL in SLC for the weekend so figured I'd better take advantage of seeing them and spending Easter w/ my parents. My kids are really excited to see their cousins. I'm committed to getting in a run this afternoon while waiting for my daughter during her gymnastics. (PREBLOGGING 4 miles for this afternoon, I know its dumb, but it helps me get out the door later in the day on the days that I sleep in- so hold me to those 4 miles!)
Something my pump teacher said this week in class really inspired me- in the middle of killing us w/ weighted lunges she said- "you are working so hard right now for your body, I want you to take that same effort and apply it to your diet and nutrition". That comment has stuck with me this week. I'm pretty good about working out, but I eat really junkie! I decided I need to put more effort into my diet and making healthier choices. The last couple days I've been trying to consciously make wiser choices and I feel reallly good about it!
Shoot! Preblogging failed today. No miles later in the day. Got really busy, lots of excuses- you all know its bunk. Just need to try harder!

Update :Decided to quit my fussing and go for a run! Got 'er done. 4 mi. at 9:18 av.
Last 2 days not going as planned. My fault for sleeping in yesterday then hoping to get a later run in. That only really happens 50% of the time and yesterday it didn't! Today I had plans to run w/ Heather and she dogged so I slept in again. Can't believe I'm admitting all this slackerness! Anyway- going to SLC today. Must get in some miles! I think it will be easier once I get to SLC because I'll be on vacation w/ more free time. Right now its the finish work, church calling stuff, pack & get kids ready push.... | |
