Human Race 10k

I am happy to announce that I finished the 10k !  I didn't do as well as I wanted, but considering I took off a month or soo (laziness I think!) I guess I should be happy I finished !!

Treadmill ...

I forgot to stretch .. and I think I pulled something in my calf ... It is throbbing ... I think I will take a cold bath.... :(

I didn't feel like running today, which is why I didn't run until 7pm !  It has been raining and yuck all day here, and I just felt like laying on the couch and watching TV all day !!!  

I at least ran a mile... not the greatest mile, but it was something !!

Training Day 7

Today run I ventured outside and ran in my neighborhood.  It was HOT outside!!  I can't wait till Fall gets here !! 

When I got up this morning, I really didn't expect I would run today.  I was just feeling blah !  Then when I decided to do it outside .. well, I had to find the Camelback, then my hat.. oh and my shades ! That alone would have given me a great excuse to not go.. but I did it anyway!!  I am really proud of myself!!! 

Here is a picture from my run .. you can't really see it, but there are cows :)

Bike ride - 3 miles

Today it took alot of motivation to get on the treadmill !! We had a bbq and I ate way too much and didn't want to run at all !!! But... I got on the treadmill and did it !! ( I am patting myself on the back) I normally listen to an audiobook when I run, but today I decided to listen to a 10k training thing I downloaded on iTunes. I did alot better, felt like I got a good workout!

After I did my 2 miles ( wanted to do 4 but just couldn't do it) Kaleb wanted me to go run with him ... I told him I would ride my bike ..cause I couldn't keep up with him ! Soo, I rode my bike .. actually me, Rik and Hayley rode our bikes. We did 3 miles ! I am going to be soooo sore tomorrow.
