Bring on the challenge!

Did my sprints this morning.  Wasn't sure how my body would respond to these after Saturday's long run, but it was actually okay.  I could tell I was a bit more tired, but not so much that I couldn't do the workout.  Actually feeling pretty good since Saturday.  Hope that's a good sign :)

3 easy miles today.  Then, Jillian's workout.  Tomorrow it's back to the grind :)

Did my tempo workout this morning.  Actually got up at 6 a.m. to do it today, too :)

Went to SL Running Company to get me a new pair of shoes today.  FINALLY.  I've been meaning to do this for months.  I don't know why I ever think I'll get a new brand of shoe, because I came home with the exact same one.  I've been a Mizuno lover for 3 years now.  But, I guess you never know if something better will come along. . .anyway, after trying on several different brands of shoes, I went with the same shoe.  Gotta love Mizuno, too - they love the bright colors  This years model is flourescent yellow.  You won't miss me on the road :)  Excited to try them out and break them in.   

3 easy this morning and no Jillian.  I had to help out in kindergarten this morning so no time for extras :)  Long run on Saturday. . .

Will it ever warm up?!?!  It was 32 degrees this morning when I left in full layers, hat and gloves.  There's only 4 weeks left till the marathon.  I would REALLY like to wear a lot less for that!  Anyway, good run, a little slow - I finished in 1:33, but I did have a  headphone issue that cost me a couple of minutes.  Ran in my new shoes this morning, too.  While they feel good, they still need to be broke in a bit, a little stiff.  Ran by myself this morning, too, as the hubby is away this weekend and will only be around every other weekend now until we move.  So, at least I had my tunes, but I kinda like running with him on the weekends. . . :(
