I felt like a little change-up today. I ran 4 miles at 7:15 pace, and then took a cycle class. The class was a really good workout. The instructor did 4 cycles of a double-time ride, a hill ride, and sprint intervals. I got really hungry with about twenty minutes left of class. Luckily, I had a gu in my bag, so that got me through the rest of the class. I'm sure I looked pretty funny taking a gu in the middle of a cycle class. But, I'm trying to avoid blood sugar crashes when I work out.

PM: We had our East High Cross Country Barbecue tonight. I decided to jump in the fun run, which was about 1.75 miles. It was all going so well until I twisted my ankle and wiped out. I jumped up and managed to pull off the win. Luckily, nothing is seriously hurt but my pride.

After my "race" I jogged around the course watching the kids run.

I feel when I was about 5-6 months prego during my running class... I was very embarrassed! Oh well! At least there was no harm done!
