Adding mileage

Great run and had a lot left in the tank. I am soooooo glad that I bought the insulated compression pants! Mileage up, almost the same pace, looking good for the 10k in a few weeks!

Picking up where I left off

Ok, it has been almost a week since I last ran. I had a tooth extraced and took some time off. Today, I ran 4 miles and was able to keep my pace at sub 12 minute miles. I feel greast knowing thatI can keep this pace. I have been doing research on dietary restrictions and types of derink to have before,during, and after the runs and I still have not decided on a certain brand or to continue to mix my own. I cannot wait to push up the mileage this week in preperation for the ConocoPhillips Rodeo Run 10K on Feb. 26.

Good run finished with heavy legs and a STRONG HEADWIND. Feel great after the run and no pain except in my lower back. I might nee this looked at for longer distances.

Bad Week

Ok, this week I had so manyintentions to run on 4 days and well, I did not. I have been carpooling to work with a coworker an have not brought my clothes to run while at work. I have been getting home late and not to mention it is cold. I know these are excuses and I will make up for this and of course have to suffer for this in the form of the lactic acid after my next run.

Meeting goals

There is nothing better for your self confidence than meeting your goals except meeting them ahead of schedule. I have broken into the sub 11:30 min/mile mark, WOOHOO I am so excited!!! Now to meet my second goal of 10k on February 26, the ConocoPhillips Rodeo Run in Houston, Texas. YEAH!!!!!

Great day for a run! I missed my turn and did 3.5 not 4 and had a cramp at mile 3. This post is a few days late, but better late than never.
