10 miles,1 min on offs -7:40 t0 a 6:45 pace. Weights.

Buffalo run was pretty cool. I saw Jun, Scott W., Kelli Stephenson, JD,Oreo, gdoc, Bryce, Dale, Davy Crockett, flyonthewall, and I am sure a few others, I just can't remember at the momento!

The true test of endurance on Saturday wasn't those out running the trails, it was me. How long can one girl hold her urine so as to avoid the ULTRA DISGUSTING POP's? I am the one who won the endurance ticket on Saturday. I held my pee the whole day. I went in one POP and it was SO SO SO bad. I couldn't do it. I held my pee from 6 am -3:30 pm. Nice.

Some thoughts I had during Saturday helping out:

-not sure I like the island. It's to windy.

-Some of the trail running women were a bit rude. They were demanding, fussy, hard personalities.You can think I am rude, but it's just the truth. The men that I encountered were all very gracious and kind. They said thank you's and had smiles on their faces. It made my day.

-Trail running is hard. I like any kind of running. But I realize more and more that I am a road racer and I'm good at it. Road racing is just as hard, but in different ways.

-You can't please everybody when volunteering and you will hear and be asked every question imaginable.

-College co-eds are getting dumber and dumber.

The tm said I ran 10, but I discounted a little because near the end of my run a stopped and walked a few minutes. It was just your normal run with some speed on/offs. Worked core. Still running pain free. Almost back to my normal running self. 

Now if we could just get it to warm up outside.....

This morning I ran outside alone at 6 am. I am so stoked! My fitness is so back! Avg pace was 7.10 for all 8 miles. I ran 1.5 on the high school track and double lapped 2 cute gals.  That was my fastest mile this morning. 

My friend Jen joined the FRB, go say hi to Jen when she post something up this week. She's pretty cool   :)

I got to the gym by 5 and lifted weights until 5:40. Then I went home and strapped on the garmin and ran 8.80 around my hood, main street, and the high school track. 

...about that track. Men do not like to be chicked, double lapped or triple lapped. They get a little furious. This guy was letting all his emotions show. Dumb.

I registered for SGM this morning. Crossing my fingers that I'm picked in the lotto. I think I could shave 4 or 5 minutes off my Marathon time there, plus my Mom and dad live there. I would have a place to stay that is quiet. A good nights sleep. A ride to the bus loading, and a ride home after the marathon. :) 

Have a good weekend everyone. Beautiful day out there!
