SUPER SATURDAY CYCLE

CYCLE: NO TIME / 10 MILES/ BREAKFAST AT LARRY'S/10 MILES

Got up -it was sunny and 52. Corbin and I had planned this for months. For his birthday we would bike to Larry's diner and have breakfast then bike home. It couldn't have been any better. Weather was perfect . No one crashed. Good breakfast. These are the days you remember why you ride.

WEIRD WEEK CATCH-UP

WEDS: ZERO REALLY BAD DAY

THURS: RUN: 35 MIN./3.O MILES

FRIDAY: RUN: 35MIN./ 3.O MILES

I really can't explain all the problems that knocked my training off this week But Weds. was bad -my godmother passed away and a problem with Cor. It was a challenge to recover but I did get a couple of runs in. My training time will be down but the mileage is up.

TUESDAY TOOTHACHE

ZERO

I came home from work and my tooth hurt so bad I could hardly think. It was a perfect day for a run but it hurt too bad. Sometimes it just doesn't happen. I will feel better tomorrow

TIRED LEGS

RUN- WALK : 30 MIN.

Headed out the door with Dakota. 70 and Sunny. Great day for a run. My legs were so tired and my quads hurt. After about .5 mile I started to walk, shortly after turned around and headed for home. Runners trotts kicked in and I picked up the pace. Hope I feel better tomorrow. I guess I did push alittle yesterday.

RECORD SEASON OPENER

RUN: 5K-/ 32:23 PR/SPLITS: 10:39,10:36,10:08, 0:59/AVE=10:24,MAX 9:09


I was very nervous and apprehensive when I went this morning. I didn't know how spinning had changed my training. I went out the first mile and felt comfortable. I watched the pace on my watch the whole time and tried to keep it below 11:00. From 1-2 I still felt great. I was hoping to hit the 2 mile mark between 22-23. I was thrilled when it was21:15. I knew I could run at least a 33. Kept and eye on my pace and tried to pick it up. When I hit 3 I could see the finish and heard 31 something-the push was on- I knew I could break 33. Unbelievable start to the year. I felt great at the end!
