Weight: 198.8

Ran 4.02 miles in 1: 03:22 averaging at 15:43 per mile.

Felt good today, the 2nd mile was slow, but the rest were great.

One week until Woman's 5K, feeling very ready!

Weight: 199.6 (Phew!)

Ran home from dropping off Cody, 1.15 miles in 17:09 min, averaging at 14:54!

Tried running a bit differently and faster, felt good and had results!

This week was busy with 2 Zumba classes, 2 GST ( group strength training) classes and a bike ride to add to the weekly runs.

Hoping to do another GST in the morning to make up for the one I'm missing today and maybe a short bike ride with the boys if the new tag-along bike works out.

Tuesday, May 25, 2010

Ran 3 miles in 48.12 averaging at 16:10 per mile.

Good run on the bike trail this morning. I think I'm getting close to adding in some sprints to my short runs. See if this can help get my long runs a little quicker.

Sunday, May 23, 2010

ran 4 miles in 1 hour 5:49 min averaging at 16:18 per mile.
Not bad, 1st mile was slow due to very long up hill on Pecan, stupid hills.

Just for fun, here's the route...

Weight: 199.6 (Finally!)

Ran 1.28 miles home from dropping Cody off in 19:53 averaging at 15:30!

Had a lot of other activity this week, 2 days of strength training, 2 days of 30 min biking at the gym and a Zumba class on Thursday.

Today we are going to go test bikes, so about 90 min of riding.

Hoping to not fluctuate too bad and keep the 200's away.

Tuesday, May 18, 2010

3.5 miles on the bike trail with the boys on their bikes.

Went well, boys did great and I pushed passed the mental blocks of wanting to quit.

No time, forgot my watch.

Sunday, May 16, 2010

Today ran 3.5 mile in 56:14 averaging out at 16:00 per mile.

Kinda ran on Thurs, lame treadmill run to stay loose. I hate the treadmill.

Not feeling good about running this week, hoping to get better next week.

Tuesday, May 11, 2010

weight: 202.4 (damn you fluctuation, and Panda)

Ran 3 miles in 49:27 averaging out at 16:23.

Not a great run today. Right foot bothering me, tingling worse today. Hoping to get into Fleet Feet to see if they have any ideas to try and resolve the issue.
No more Panda before a run day, makes for a rough tummy. Blah.

Weight: 200.8

Didn't have the most formal of running this week, but 3 days down.

Tues 2.5 miles averaging around at 16:30 pace

Fri ran home from dropping off Cody, made a loop around. Actually had a good run with Ty on his scooter, kinda an oxymoron.

Today ran 3 miles in 47:56 min averaging at 15:54 per mile.
Felt good today, pushed a little harder on the warm up and stretched more before starting, made a huge difference. Didn't walk at all today!

Feet are still a little bothersum. Changed to thinner socks I had, and seamed a bit better, but by the end of today's run they were tingly. I think my shoes are slipping a bit, going to see if I can find some longer laces so I can lace them up one more run and snug the tops a bit better.

3 more weekend long runs until the next race. Feeling more ready than last time!

Weight: 202

Ran 2.52 miles in 40:48, averaging at 16:11

Feet are bothering me. Toes going numb and my right foot hurts on the bottom again. Hoping try my thinner socks to see if this helps.
