I went and ran with the SJ group again. They are great to run with and pushing me along! We did 3 5K's today. The splits were 25:20, 23:56, 24:06. I am somewhat disappointed that the last split was slower than the second, however if I had gone any faster towards the end I would have had an accident. Thanks guys!

 On another note: The Olympics and Breaking Dawn are killing my sleep!  I have got to get to bed earlier.  I will try again tonight...

Three 5Ks in a row and all with awesome times! What a workout today! Now, make sure to get some sleep tonight!

Good job again, Jody. I'm glad you've been joining us. Yes, it sounds like you do need some sleep. And Kim, if it sounds like we have fun at our workouts, you can always join us too!

YOU ARE AWESOME!!! Great job today---you guys kept me motivated cause I really wanted to just be done and back in my bed!!

My Garmin is busted---I can not get it to switch modes (that button will not work) so now I have no clue what I ran. I know my second one was faster than my first, and if your 3rd was slower than your second, than mine was, too! I am bummed that I can not get it to work.

Anyway, hope yo see you again sometime! I can not ditch my husband, so hopefully we can figure out a way to come. You guys train way better than we do!

Great run Jody. You are going to blow Marcies mind when we are done with you! Keep up the good work.

From MarcieJ on Thu, Aug 14, 2008 at 18:16:55

Walter, She already does! Jody never ceases to impress me with her toughness! It runs in her family, trust me I am married to her brother, I know!

From MarcieJ on Thu, Aug 14, 2008 at 18:18:29

Great work out Jody! Do you have a goal in mind for Hobblecreek?

From walter on Thu, Aug 14, 2008 at 18:20:11

Marcie, we have a little secret experiment we are brewing up for you. I think Ill name it the Complete Marathon Makeover Edition.

From MarcieJ on Thu, Aug 14, 2008 at 21:27:59

Sounds cool! Why a secret though??

From MarcieJ on Thu, Aug 14, 2008 at 21:29:11

and why is it for me?

From walter on Thu, Aug 14, 2008 at 23:23:47

Its our prodigy--Jody the great-- She will be amazed that her goal time will be shattered.

From MarcieJ on Thu, Aug 14, 2008 at 23:36:53

Walter, of course she will shatter her goal time! She always does, she is a very talented runner!

From MarcieJ on Fri, Aug 15, 2008 at 01:08:37

Walter just curious. This is the second time this week you have randomly made comments such as "you are going to give marcie a run for her money, and going to blow marcie's mind" to jody.And maybe I am taking it the wrong way but Jody and I are sister-n-laws/family, shes not my competition and I didnt think I was hers. So just dont understand the comments????

From walter on Fri, Aug 15, 2008 at 09:45:58

Marcie you goofball! Yes of course your taking it the wrong way.

From MarcieJ on Fri, Aug 15, 2008 at 09:49:11

Ok thats what I hoped!!:)
