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. :)

| | I don't know what I'm thinking. I ran around the hood, up NC down Quail to 9400 s. I was going to go run on Raintree but last minute decided I wanted to run down the trail at the top of NC so instead I turned and ran UP 9400 S. {who does that? I mean by choice?} Then I ran down the trail and back down NC. When I got to the light I was at about 9.2 I was only planning on running 8 or 9 but when I saw that I had to make it 10. You would have done the same thing. My IT band started getting mad at me at around 8.5. My legs were getting pretty sore too. By the time I was at 9.5 my IT was yelling at me. But I had to finish. So I did. My legs are hurting. Its been a long time since I ran 10. It was slooow. But a lot of hills and a sore out of shape body. Good Times. | |

| | I didn't know how far I was going to go today. I was going off of feel. When I got to the light at NC I saw a girl wearing hot pink with blonde hair turn up NC on the other side of the street. She got pretty far ahead of me by the time my light changed. At least I thought. I didn't think I would catch her, nor was I trying to. But I actually ended up catching up to her and then passing her. She drafted off of me the rest of the way up to the stop sign. I never turned around to look at her but I could hear her breathing over my shoulder even with my music on. You would think it would be annoying but I actually appreciated it bc It gave me motivation to step it up and stay ahead of her. When we got to the stop sign, I turned left and she continued on straight. Bye bye hot pink. Then I ran down WillowHills and around the hood back home. Good Times. | |

| | My legs are pretty mad at me. I ran around the hood, down Highland to 9400, down to Sterling around Falcon park twice and then up the hill then back around hood to home. I stopped and stretched my legs a bit before I ran up the hill. That helped. That song came on Stacie at the end, "My body tells me no, but I won't quit cuz I want more!" That really is motivating. I played it twice. Good Times! | |

| | today I drove all over. And burned my calories yelling at other stupid cars. | | Comments(5) |
| | Not bad considering I hated pretty much every minute and wanted to quit the whole time. | |

| | I did it. I actually had a 30 mile week. I don't remember the last time I did that. Feels good. My legs are tight, I need to stretch but other than that, all my hurts like my IT and PF etc aren't bothering me so that's good. Good Times | |
