8 miles on the bike trail (8.1) in 2:05:17 averaging at 15:30.

Ran a different section, that was much friendlier. It's really just a long extension of where the boys and I go, but starting from the other end.
Hoping I can walk later!

3 mile loop on bike trail (2.98) in 45:48 averaging at 15:24. Not thrilled, but had tight legs, so wasn't expecting a blazing time. Blah

weight 192.6

Long 7 mile run on the bike trail in 1:47:46 averaging at 15:22.

For the big hills at then end that sucked me dry, I'm okay with the average time. Hoping to get down to closer to 14:30 average for race day.

1/2 way to the 1/2!

Back to training after vacation!

Weight 195.0 (not bad considering aforementioned trips)

Ran 4 miles (4.03) on bike trail with the boys in 1:01:19 averaging at 15:10 per mile. Close to where I was.

First kettle bell work out from Tren. Umm, ouch, but in a good way.

Weight: up, that's all I'm gonna say about that...

Ran 2.5 miles (2.55 actual) around the neighborhood in 36:33 averaging at 14:23 per mile.

Still felt heavy today, maybe it's the hilly neighborhood???

So week one of my new routine is done and I'm overly excited that I'm not really work out this weekend. We will be camping and there should be more trail to explore, so that will be the easy exercise.

This week consisted of 3 Zumba classes, 2 GST, 1 Pilates and 2 runs. This morning, my body is screaming to stop. So I'm hoping next week is better.

My worry comes with the 3 weeks away from home and normal. Currently searching over the gym schedules in Boise, but haven't been able to come up with much of a good set yet. I do have my runs pretty well laid out, so that will be my constant. I really want to go try a couple of Zumba classes by Hilla and try to get some strength training in as well. Oh yeah, and visit friends and family while exploring Boise. I'm exhausted just thinking about it all.

1st day of 1/2 marathon training!

Weight: 196 (bad Panda...)

2 mile run (1.98) in 28:09 averaging at 14:10. Awesome way to start!

Legs were very heavy today and started to get a little crampy towards the end. Thinking this has to do with the 2 Zumba classes, pilates and GST w/crazy Trina over the past couple of days. It will get better!

Firecracker 10k

10k ran in 1:32:55 putting the average down to 14:57 per mile.

Felt great, and started a bit slow. Not a lot of people, which was good and bad. Getting faster is a good thing.

Next week marks the official start of 1/2 Marathon training, starting back at 2 miles to start building up some speed with the higher mileage.

3 miles around the neighborhood this morning, 45:24 averaging at 15 flat.

Tomorrow I rest and Sat is the 10K. Should be good, cooling down this weekend, fingers crossed!

Ran 4 miles in the neighborhood this morning while the boys are at day camp. It was really hot and sweaty!

Would love if I could have this as my pace on Saturday!
