Shoot for the Stars

Roegner Park. Ran solo this time; had to run early to make it before leaving to Seattle on an Alaskan cruise. Plus today is Father's Day. Felt pretty good but was tried/sore most of the day. Ran at about 8:00 a.m. It was poor weather; rainny and cloudy. :( It was invigorating though. Ran usual route there and back plus 2 extra loop once.

TT: 1:14:28                             Avg: 9:18 min                 Max: 6:47 min

Miles: 9:22, 9:23, 9:25, 9:12, 9:21, 9:25, 9:05, 9:11

Took a nice slow route since it was a long distance run. Sporatic on some miles. Overall no problems and felt happy to be finished for today.

Alaskan Cruise. My first run out on the Seas :) Yeah Pacfic ocean cruise to Alaska out of Seattle!!! I ran sometime in the afternoon. My GPS didn't work due to the moving cruise line or maybe the ledge covering the sky that I ran under....not too sure, but kept loosing reception. I was only able to time myself:( I know I ran 4 miles though-12 laps around the 3rd Deck of Holland America. 3 laps=1 mile. I felt fairly good. Ran some of it with Nick's brother Dustin. (only about 1 mile though or less). It was just fun to run around the boat and see the ocean as I ran by. How inspiring! It was a tricky run though, dodging walkers in my way.

TT: 27:36 min

Alaskan Cruise. Holland America. 10:30a.m. Bad, rainny weather. I had to run indoors due to wind and rain blowing, plus the deck may have been slippery. Ran on treadmill for about 4 miles. It was very hard to run on treadmill in the gym on 9th floor. I hate running indoors. It was difficult for me and I had a tough time completing my 4 miles. It was also hot indoors, very sweaty. Very tired!

TT: 38:52 min.      Avg: 9:50 pace start, then went faster to about 8:70 ish per mile. I had a slight incline for some of the time.

Alaskan Cruise. Holland America cruise line. Fairly good weather so ran on 3rd deck outdoors around the ship. No reception for GPS forerunner again. Ran in the morning. 4 miles=12 laps. Felt okay. Again it was nice to run on cruise line

TT: 36:14 min.

Alaskan Cruise. Holland America cruise. Ran about noon. There was a walk a thon going on for breast cancer. I waited until they were about done before I ran. It would be almost impossible to dodge all of them. On this run I pretty much followed 2 other girls running for the beginning and was able to get past some of the walkers, following their lead. This was my long run so I was happy for fabulous weather today and nice skies. It was neat to see so many people out exercising on 3rd deck. I ran 27 laps around the ship!!!! 9 miles:) very proud of myself. It wasn't too terrible. I think on lap 18 I had the most energy and got a runners high, however the last 2 miles was very hard!
