Let's do this!

Got to the gym around 4:55. Worked on the elliptical with Kira for 45 min. Then I did some speed work for a mile on the treadmill. Worked abs, arms. Drove home, hopped out of the car and took off down to the river trail and ran 7 more miles. The running felt kind of slow today. Time to pick it up! avg. pace 7:43

pm update ran 2 miles on the tm after I decided to go tanning. Wasn't much but glad to get out of the house. 

Today is the same as yesterday. Gym at 4:50, elliptical for 45 min. lifted, worked core. Left the gym. Went running on the river trail. My 2nd loop around I see this woman up ahead and so I make her my focal point to try to catch up to her. Well, as I got closer who would it be? Julie! :) LOL! It was so fun to run the last 1 1/2 miles with her home. I was majorly tired this morning, to the point of tears. When this happens, I always know that I need to get to bed earlier. Super hard when the sun is out so late!  And a Happy Birthday to Scott Wesemann!

Woke up late. Ran the river trail loop twice totaling 7 miles. I still feel slow. What is the deal? avg. pace 7:40

Ran 4.35 miles pm today. Avg pace 7:27. I think I like that better.

River trail loop in reverse twice. avg pace 7:40.

 6.2 on the tm in 44 min speed interval style. Running on the tm feels like a breeze compared to outside. Then I worked on the eliptical for 45 minutes. Lifted and worked my core. Tonight I will run up a hill.

 I think the use of my ipod is slowly making me go deaf. I am constantly saying 'sorry, what?'. I am annoying right now. I notice I can't really see the clocks on the gym walls. Grrreat, blind and deaf. Welcome to old age already.

So here is a picture of my arm that was fish hooked by a kid near the river trail a week and half ago. I was running along minding my biz and snag, OUCH! What the fuzz?

  7.50 miles running outside river trail twice plus .60 mile around my hood. Went to the gym after and worked on the elliptical for 35 min. Worked core and lifted for 10 minutes.  avg. pace 7:35
