Running with Scissors (Page 26)

You can do it!!!  Or maybe your brain is telling you to take a day off.  Either way

I ran w/ the dogs this morning, but only for an hour cuz had to take #1 son to classes.  I was really glad he didn't get his driver's license when he was 16, but he's 18 now and I can't wait   Ok, I can wait til winter's over so he gets 3 seasons of practice before the snow hits again.  The foothills are not very forgiving of driving errors.....

Go team!!  I will update the spreadsheet tonight when I get the info off garmin.

w00t w00t!!!!

I had Sunday and Monday off so no can do!!! the sun just came out though so it's not all bad.   

Sun in Seattle?  Isn't that like a miracle or something?

Hey everyone - I have to admit I won't be running today at all. I have been up most of the night with the flu and can barely make it from the bed to the bathroom with as little strength I have. Finally able to keep 2 saltines and some sprite down. I was one that was under 40% but would have been at 50% if I could get my runs in the next couple days. I will try to take it easy and come back strong. Otherwise I might have to back out of this challenge - we see what the next couple days are like.

Sorry.

Stacie

Stacie, I'm sorry to heart that you are sick.  Please take care of yourself and rest and recover before you think about coming back to running.  You being healthy is way more important.  I hope you feel better soon. 

Drive through posting......

Do you guys look like this when you run?

Good job today and good luck w/ the shoes!  It's funny how shoes can feel fine on short runs but after a while they really hurt!  Ok, it's not funny at all actually.... 

But FASTER  

I gotta see that! 

Hi Scizzazz! I am back from vacation so thought I would check in and share my run results tonight.

This is cool. My goal today was to come back in the same time or less than I went out. So I went out tonight very cold on the lungs (ouch) and very very windy. It was hard to concentrate on my breathing but I forced through it! I went out in 13:33 and came back in 13.34! Very cool since it is not a flat course by any means. I think I am getting better at pacing myself. Another telling thing is my avg hr on the way out was 157 on the way back it was 170. Can you tell which way the wind was blowing??

Hope you are all doing well!

Tammy...welcome!! how is your nite going? I am about to go to an auction..and gotta  remember not to wave at my friends during the auction...or I may be the winner of god knows what...like last year! ) have a great evening! always a pleasure having you stop by! you come back now...ya hear!

I ran 40 minutes at the gym, could have gone longer but for some reason I never want to. Hahahahaha. I've had such a crappy day, nothing bad in general, just a lot of small things all at once. I'm so buggered off about this olympic training plan....argh.  I cannot do all the things on it PLUS have a life I guess.  It's ticking me off, mostly because I'm at work 12 hours a day and then I have to come home after the gym and do housework etc because I have a husband that just plainly refuses to help out with things, even on his days off. He doesn't know that on Saturday's when he works all I do mostly is clean house. I just want it to be nice because I like it that way. Sigh.  I've been upset all bloomin day like a big child.

Sorry, I should have blogged all this mush!!!  I am going to up my mileage again if that's ok, to 20. It's only half way through (almost) and I'm already at 10.   I ran 40 minutes but only got 2.66 miles. I'm disappointed in that. I don't know how fast I should be running in order to better myself these days.........pants. 

They are all out of 2nd gen nano's @ $79  though but keep checking as they get them in all the time. They are usually just returns....
