Short-Term Running Goals:

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

3:15 marathon

I went to teach my class this morning and only one girl showed up so she said she'd jump on the treadmill so I didn't have to just teach 1 person. So, I got to come back home and sleep for another hour.

I headed to the gym and did Ashli's step class. I haven't done it forever and it was fun to just participate:)

PM-Pre-blog for teaching barbell class tonight.

Are you at the gym by Smiths tonight by chance?

ps that's cool that you're the race director! but the map on the webpage isn't very readable. what's the address of the start/finish area?

I actually don't have your shirt yet. I've been a slacker and haven't been to the running group yet. I am going in the morning so I will have it then.

The race starts at 14400 SO. 2200 W. The first 2 of the 10k is slightly up and then it is gradually down the rest of the way. It should be fun.

no big hurry. (i was actually hoping that you haven't been hauling it around with you for the past week, since i sort of forgot to stop in and get it from you last wednesday.)

I'm alright. I've had really bad allergies this past week and haven't been sleeping very well. I actually didn't even go teach my class this morning. I am planning to meet the running group tomorrow morning but I'll have to see. Typically, my allergies act up mid May-mid June. I hope it ends soon. Last year I got 2 sinus infections during taht time. It is amazing how much it takes out of me. Thanks for thinking of me. I'm trying to get back on top but I get kind of burned out this time of year also. I feel like I am starting over again.

How are you feeling? Are you recovering well from the marathon?

From britta on Mon, Jun 01, 2009 at 12:44:56 from 66.74.236.175

OH I am so sorry. I have allergies too and they do wipe you out. Take it easy and rest up. Maybe this is the perfect thing for you leg.

Today I feel much better. This has been one of my longer recoveries. I am not sure why.

Boo to allergies!
