We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, therefore, is not an act but a habit. ~Aristotle

Ran 6.2 this morning. My muscles are obviously not used to this because they've been a little sore and tight all weekend. Started at a 8:40 pace for the first mile and a half. The next 5 were at an 8:06. So much slower than what I was doing, but I was told to start out slow and work back up slowly. I don't want to re-injure at all. I feel like I could speed up,cardiovascular I could handle it, but my joints and muscles say otherwise. I will keep working and try not to over-do anything. 

34 minutes elliptical hell with Roy chatting my ear off. Weights. 

It's not fast but I can run!!!  :)

It's March! We're creeping up on the end of Winter. We made it!

I ran 7.4 in my Nike Free Runs for the first time today. They felt great. I had some cramping in my pirformis, but nothing throwing out a red flag so I alternated walking and running the first 3.5 miles. The last  4 I ran at an 8:06, 8:06, 7:41 7:41. I want to run faster so bad, but I am resisting. It's way to soon.

25 minutes elliptical hell.Worked core & stretching at home.

Ran 5.50 this morning before spinning. I can tell my VO2max level is still high because I am not getting out of breath. I pushed the pace a tiny bit harder today. 7:18. It didn't hurt, and I felt fine. No worries peeps. I am doing well. Going to see the Orthopedist this morning just to be sure. :)

Spinning for 1 hour. So sweaty! She really pushes us. There was maybe one man in the room, the other 27 people were chicks. So if you're looking for a chick, our spin class is the place to go hehe :)  I feel like eating so much now. Resisting.

Ran 9 miles, first 35 minutes were not any faster than an 8:40 pace. Next 35 minutes were around a 7:25 pace. I feel like someone needs to physically remove me from the tm! I can't stop running and I'm only supposed to do 7 at most a day. eeeeekkkkk!

20 minutes of elliptical hell that followed. A few weights. I have a cold and it's making feel like total crap. I need a slice of cake

Ran 7.25 in my brooks Launch. Love that shoe. 30 minutes of elliptical. Some weights and worked core. Off to Utah's dixie to visit family and run/hike in Snow canyon. Perhaps some fun in Mesquite while I'm there. Have a good weekend friends!

4 miles running/fast hiking in the red cliffs in St. George. This place was impressively amazing. Water falls and pools of water throughout. Pictures to come Monday. :)
