I ran 4  miles this morning before heading into spin. I did do some speed work during my short run. Which always gets my heart pumping hard and fast. My right upper thigh seemed tight this morning. But I've been stretching it good. I stayed in spin for 40 minutes and I was sweating so bad when I left, my teeny white t-shirt was see through and hanging off of my bones.

 On another note, I lost half a toe nail the other day. It didn't hurt, but it was sore before I clipped the top half off. It has been bumping the top of my new balance shoe to much I guess. I've been wearing my new adidas more lately because of it.  I'm excited to run the speedy spaniard route this coming Friday with Merri and Lynsey. I feel overall nervous to run the actual race in July. Though I have always kept running, I haven't entered a race since 2004 .....yikes!

Now a wet t-shirt contest at Golds - that place just keeps on getting worse and worse ha ha!

I'm nervous about the run in July too. I hope I can make that run on Fri. Moses just started delivering newspapers in the mornings - but I'm going to do everything i can to make it work for Fri.

There are two parts to that course that I hate!

1. The hill that you have to climb to get out of the park! The hills that follow are not that bad. But I hate that first hill and narrow path leading out of the park. So make sure and get up front.

2. I hate that you run by the finish line at center st and that you have to loop back on to main st to finish.

I like when you hit that last .2 and you kick that pace up a bit and start flying past people. You gals are training hard and shouldn't have any trouble at all. I am no expert, that is just me two cents.

Oh I totally agree on that hill getting out of the park and the narrow path. Tammy and I made the mistake of starting in the middle/back of the pack and we paid for it. :) This year it's the front for us!

Hey, I think I'm gonna do speedy spaniard too! Maybe I should come run it with you on Fri. Wait don't you guys run at 5 a.m? Nevermind.
