AM - 3 easy miles outside by myself at 7:40 average pace (naturally sped up as my body warmed up), then another 2 easy miles with Sparky at avarege pace of 8:30/mile. It felt good to run today. I am getting really excited for St. George - less than a week away now, and I am feeling good. My legs are good, I feel in good shape - the only thing that has been concerning me has been a mildly sore throat. This could just be due to allergies - I am not sure, though. Poor Adam has been sick for a few days now with a fever and sore throat - I just hope I don't catch what he has - that would be disastrous. I have decided that instead of 4 miles/day this week, I will go ahead and do 5. I ended up not running on Saturday becauses we got up early for Lybi's race (I was the cheerleader that day), and I was tired from not enough sleep, so I didn't run in the morning, then took Sam and Joey to a birthday party at the pool and messed up something with my shoulder diving off the high dive. I have a wicked knot there right now that keeps coming back. I am considering going to the chiropractor this week, but we will see. |
