Legs are pretty sore from Saturday but I'll be fine. Last night my left heel started hurting like it did last December. So I'm a little bummed. I woke up this morning at what I thought was 4:20 am.  I thought I felt REALLY tired. I went in the bathroom and got my workout clothes on and all that jazz. Went downstairs and I looked the clock that said 3:30 am. I looked at my cell phone that said 3:30. I was so ticked. One of my kids changed my alarm clock time an hour forward. Ugghh. So I snuck back into bed with my workout clothes on and promptly fell back asleep. Then I woke up later than I wanted -5 am. 

Since my heel hurts, I just worked on the eliptical for 1 1/2 hrs. Then I had a little time to lift and work my core. I had a nice time at the gym having some deep talks with Kira. It was really good for me. Happiest Monday.

Today was the same as yesterday. Go look over there if you want to know that bad.

It's a phenomenon that we always talk about delish food while working out. Every time! ....then you leave feeling way more hungry than you should. Oh, have to mention ensign reading runner....she knows who she is. It looks sooo fun. ha!

5k on Saturday? Time to crack the 20 min time.

Up to late last night to wake up for a morning workout. Went to the gym at 5 pm and ran 5 miles in 34 minutes. Worked on the eliptical for 37 minutes after.  So ready for bed now.

I still didn't go to bed early enough last night (10:30) so this morning I was so tired.

Went to the gym and elipticized for 50 min. Lifted and worked core. Left and came home to run the river trail 5.50 miles in 41:03. Fun stuff. I felt slow and tired today. Probably because there was barely a 12 hour recovery between this mornings and last nights workouts.

Ran 5.25 on tm this morning with Julie. Speed intervals for the first 22 minutes. Fun stuff. I also worked on the eliptical for 30 minutes. Worked core then left home. Done and done.

This course was uphill for about the first 3 miles in the dirt and rocks. I sucked. I couldn't keep up. I wanted to die. I ran the last two downhill miles fast to make up.In turn that caused me to roll both my ankles slightly. I suck. But I will be back up there again on my own time to learn to conquer it because that's just how I am.
