I am not sore today, not in the least, in fact I feel quite good… very bizarre considering my muscles felt like they were seizing up on the run yesterday. I did a good stretch but fully expected to be sore today. Bonus.

Red or white?
May I just start with a little whine? I really kinda do not like my Garmin very much. It is way too complicated for me and I was really OK with my basic Timex. It’s my fault that I showed the ol’ man a picture of it and commented on how cool it was- IContinue reading “Red or white?”
In the swim
I got in the pool today for some cross training and it was both very fun and very hard. The first half was the hardest as I was seriously sucking wind- and didn’t think I could make it across the pool every time I set out for another lap but I kinda found my grooveContinue reading “In the swim”
back at ‘er
I keep a written training log and while adding up my total miles last night for the previous week I was very surprised to find that I had had my highest mileage week yet (18 miles)since I strarted training in Novemeber. I also passed the 100 miles logged point. It was a nice little boostContinue reading “back at ‘er”
The Great Outdoors
Finally back outside today after 3 weeks!!! It was far from a “perfect” or even “good” run but I’ll take it. My plan was to do 6 miles but ended up doing 5.3. I decided to change my route because of the snow- figuring going straight down Main St. would up my chances of havingContinue reading “The Great Outdoors”
poo
I think I’m falling into a little runners depression here- I’m just feeling so very upset about not being able to run. I think maybe part of the problem is that I’m not in bed, needing -round -the -clock -care sick, but rather up and around and generally going on about my normal life butContinue reading “poo”
The road to nowhere…
Trying to stay positive here but freaking out on the inside as my training has been completely derailed, last week by Christmas festivities and this week by illness. I did 2 miles on the treadmill yesterday and it felt OK but I was at my limit. I’m feeling OK just weak-ish. I looked through myContinue reading “The road to nowhere…”
boo hoo
Got “the flu” although my version is, as always, very low grade. Basically I feel horrible but am somehow able to look after everyone still, including laundry, meals, driving kids around… it’s the Mama strain of the virus methinks.
It’s the most wonderful time of the year…
Just as I had predicted, this week has been a bit of a bust- there’s one more day in the training week and to date I have just 2 treadmill runs in, one cross training session (i hour of shoveling snow) and tomorrow it looks like another treadmill- and it is set to be aContinue reading “It’s the most wonderful time of the year…”
