| | I was worried that my legs would be still too sore for a good run, but after the first warm up mile, they felt really good. I was able to get some good paces in for the last 3 miles. Got a chance to ride my bike home from work since mini-me rode it there and took my vehicle. I could have gotten a ride, but it was so nice outside and I haven't been on my bike for at least 6 weeks, and it was a lovely ride home. |

| | I did my 10K route this morning. It was warm and humid out again this morning. I think it's going to be cooling off again in the next couple of days and I'm looking forward to it. No moon, rather overcast, but pretty daylight colors coming out on my run home. I enjoyed my bike ride home from school yesterday so much that I decided to ride it to/& from again today. It made my morning routine really rushed, so I'm going to have to give myself more time if I do it again...no, when I do it again. I got really lucky riding both ways today. As soon as I arrived at my destinations, it started raining. Dry rides, then rain when I finished. Lucky me! Severe thunderstorm warnings were issued for the afternoon, so I tried to use my weather forecasting skills to decide if it was safe or not. I'm not a meteorologist, but I have spent the night at the Holiday Inn Express :-) 9.8 miles on the bike total- not really long, but a good workout for me anyway.

| | 3.5 hours of sleep last night, and not all at once. My sleepless night involved extra crispy colonel's chicken, and 3:30 am homework. I really don't think my nights should be this complicated or delicious. So I did not get out this morning to exercise. After work, I thought I'd try my hand at running home again. Wasn't sure how my body would do- but I managed to get home (although it was a little slower than my other paces the last couple weeks), and didn't have to stop at all on the way. It was just amazingly cool, with some sun but mostly cloudy, and a very nice breeze. I've had dinner, it's 6pm, and I'm going to be heading off to sleep soon. I hope the KFC fairy lets me sleep tonight- unless it's boneless bbq wing night, and then I may be open to another midnight snack :-)

After my run yesterday, I was walking across the lawn and my knee did something funny and was still a little sore, but I needed some activity this morning to wake myself up. I ran a good progressive pace. second mile 60 seconds faster than the first, then another 30 seconds faster than that.
Knee was sore again after that and was for the rest of the day. Dang it all. I wanted to run home from work again, because it's so nice outside and a good de-stresser. But I went home and paid bills instead. Hooray :-( |

Knee felt good all day, so I decided to go for a run after work. It was beautiful outside. A little warmer than I wanted it to be, but so much nicer than the summer heat that I really should not complain.
About a mile into the run, MR called me to tell me he was already home. I had him meet me around mile 3 on his bike, and got myself a waterboy! It was just under 10 miles to my house, so I ran a little further to make it 10. Just a great run! Everything felt good after the run :-) |

| | Did my long run yesterday so I slept in today and spent it with my family. I'd forgotten how nice it can be to just hang out (and do the shopping- which is not nice). | Add Comment |
