A clydesdale no more!

Last week was another throw away week.  Just too busy with work, home projects and kid's activities.  Becky signs up for a lot of virtual races.  I used to think it was silly but I now realize that is a way for her to get in speed work.  Today was her Mother's Day 7k.  We went to the LPT and I ran it with her.  Held a 7:30/mile pace for most of the run. 

Going to really make the effort to be consistent this week.  Absolute perfect running weather this morning.  Hoping I can lock into the routine of getting out every morning.  My right ankle is causing fits.  Couldn't get into a decent groove because it was bothering me. 

Another morning of perfect running weather.  Stumbled upon Becky at the 2.5 mile mark while she was putting in a few miles after her gym session.  Ran 1.5 with her then tacked on a few more.  Just kept it at a comfortable crusing pace. 

I'm going to start an 8 week boot camp at Becky's gym on Monday and am not sure how much running I will be able to get in.  Mentally, it is going to be hard letting the miles drop again but I will be gaining in overall fitness which is more important. 

My week of consistency didn't go so well.  Felt great during the run this morning.  Body seemed to be moving well.  My dilemna for tomorrow is that I have to weigh in at the crossfit gym before the 8 week boot camp starts on Monday.  I want to run 15 miles but don't want to have an artifically low weight during my weigh in.  Probably won't have time afterward because of soccer games.  Maybe it will have to be a late night run.  I never seem to be motivated enough to run long unless I do it first thing in the morning.
