Short-Term Running Goals: Maybe run a few more marathons?? Stay healthy, motivated and consistent. Races are fun, but unlike the hokey pokey, its not what its all about for me. Its about health, sanity and feeling great about myself bc I can call myself a runner. :)

Not worth talking about. boo.
Second attempt with Scott on the horse trail, distance was 3.3 but with all the walking I did, Im only counting another 1.5 miles. Total calories burned today, somewhere in the low 700's. So thats something. I need a do-over of this day. It will be called "tuesday." |

| | Ran along 1300 E. to Pioneer Rd. and mom picked me up and drove me home. Felt groggy today also but pushed through it. Ran really slow splits but at least I did it. I kept waiting to get the 2nd wind but it never came. Maybe im getting sick, who knows. Just dont feel normal. |

| | 60 minute on demand Jillian Michaels kick arse workout. Core strengthening. I believe Im really lacking in this area and I know I need it to become a better runner. Stronger core, better runner, ..stronger core, better runner.. | Add Comment |

slow start, saw Erin and stopped and chatted for awhile. Then I felt better when I started up again. Had hunger pangs that were making me feel sick, that usually doesnt happen to me, kind of weird. Another run, another day.
As the day goes on, I am more and more sore from Jillian's circuit training yesterday. I feel like I can barely walk! good feeling. |

gradual uphill first 3 miles, took off on a trail for a bit and then back down on road. Ran some new streets, I wasnt sure where I would end up but it worked out, back up Falcon Hill and around the hood back home. felt good, did some posture adjustment a few times, wouldnt it be nice if someone could video tape you the whole time so you could see yourself and see your mistakes? Anyway, perfect temp. beautiful day.
Can I just complain about my husband for a minute? I run, he bikes. Running is my outlet. Lately he wants running to be his outlet too, Im all for that. I really am. What im not all for is that I go out and run 7 miles today, which for me is pretty good and when I come home, hes not here. Not here bc he's out running strait up the face of Mt. Olympus. WHAT??! He's not only faster, hes stronger and Ive been doing this for going on 3 yrs and he has been doing this for, Oh I dont know, on and off for a couple of months? I mean really running. He has gone in spurts in the past but few months he has been getting serious. Im just venting. I want to be proud of myself without him outdoing me!! I know I sound like a winey baby. waa waa. Okay, its now out of my system and now I will go tell him im proud of him, bc thats what good wives do. |
