With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams...

Got up and made Chicken Cordon Bleu for dinner, then MR and I did our p90x stretch together. 

I really like the stretch video. Feels good :-)

Ran with MR after sleeping in too late, but I am glad we did, because it was still cold at 10:30 in the morning.

Not really eventful, one car refused to move over at all and seemed to just want to hit us.  I wish I had a air horn to blow at them when they do that.  I'm keeping my eye open for one (yes, the good eye, and not the one under the patch)!

60 minutes on the elliptical

still not finished with my runner's world magazines.  I must read really slowly when I'm working out.  I'm still on the first magazine!  Love the story about the runner from Ghana who scrimps & saves to build a school house & clinic in his home town.  The article really made me think and consider how blessed I am and how I would like to make a difference like he does.

after school:  ran/walked.  1 mile run with a 1/3 mile walk, repeated 3x.  total was 4.2, so 1.2 miles walked and 3 miles run.  Not fast, just moving.

Early morning with my neighbor.  She had her foot scraped again yesterday, so we didn't go really fast.  Avg pace 9:15.  It was warm outside!  57* and we were able to run inbetween rain storms.

Tomorrow morning will be 27*.  Ick.

Tried doing some speed interval-type workout. Ran 1 warm up mile, then .73 fast, jogged for a while, fast for .75, jogged again, fast for 1 mile, then a cool down.

My fast paces were 7:35, 7:**(can't remember), and 8:01.

Glad to have that over with.  It was 30* when I left the house just after 5:00.  It was cold, but I ended up getting over-heated in the end.  I want a happy medium somewhere!

afternoon: 45 min on elliptical while I read "Hunger Games"..... liking the book!

Went out with MR and my neighbor.  We went at an easier pace, and had a nice run.  It had stopped raining and was just beautiful outside.  I wore shorts and a singlet.

We ran across one field where they were growing a Subaru.  It cropped up over night and seemed to be growing well.   On our way back home, it had been towed out of the field.  Looks like someone was going very fast and almost cleared the ditch, but left part of the undercarriage near the ditch, the front bumper a few yards in front of the "impact" and broke the front suspension. 

Someone had one wild & crazy night.
