I've gotten the running bug back and hope I can continue to enjoy it. I think for now, my short-term goal is to NOT burn myself out. I am pro at doing that. I have a half and full marathon that I am planning on racing in a few months. I hope to be trained well enough to PR in both, but if not...I will enjoy the ride.

Under 1:30 half

Met at SJ Park at 5:30 to do 3-5k's with the BB's. I really didn't feel my very best today but averaged 7:51 overall. That is 3 seconds faster average than last time we did these. My stomach was quite upset today and I had to stop after the 2nd lap to go potty. Note to self: DO NOT eat zucchini right before I go to bed. DUH!!! I've gotta go over to the stake center and teach total conditioning at 9:00. I'll probably add some more mileage for that later.

Well, back from TC and I worked very hard today and got my heart rate above AT several times. I am going to give myself another 5 miles for the hour long class.

Nice pace today! I missed you guys!

Thnaks Jody, we missed you too. Way to get your run in on your own. I'm so glad you got into SG. You are gonna rock. Are you going to do the half marathon with the group Saturday?

From Kelli on Thu, Sep 04, 2008 at 10:34:45

I was hoping you had the pace for each 3 miler so I could see how fast i could have been.

Great job, though! Have fun teaching at the stake center. I am sticking with nice and easy Yoga for today and a long walk to the park later. My feet are killing me. Does that ever go away?

I would like to do the half on Saturday. What are the plans? There was a couple of different senerios they were talking about.

From Michelle N. on Thu, Sep 04, 2008 at 10:40:41

Kelli-I do have the splits so I'll put them in when I get home from teaching.

You did so great today and I was bumbed when you backed off for your hubby. What a great wife you are. Tell him he has plenty of fast twitch muscle fibers and it is time to slow down a few days a week and work on some slow twitch.

Jody-I'm not sure what the plan is yet but I'm sure it'll get emailed by Cheryl or Peggy.

I will e-mail you soon with all the details.
