Addicted to Running

Had to run on the treadmill again because it was so windy when my husband got home from work. I was really looking forward to running outside again but that blasted wind had to blow. It was such a nice day earlier. I can handle rain, snow, cold, heat, but I absolutely hate running in the wind. Going to try for a tempo run tomorrow.

I did a 2 mile warm up then a 4 mile tempo. I tried to keep my pace between 7 & 7:30. Then I did a 2.25 mile cool down. It was a hard run but it felt good.

Last year I ran the Spectrum 10K in 47:34. I want to try for 45 minutes this year. By fastest time was in 2005 when I ran 46:09.

Are they going to do the same course as last year?

Mesquite is sponsoring a 10miler the week after the Spectrum 10K. I have run it twice and it is pretty fun.

Have a great day!

Rode my bike hard for an hour while I watched a rerun of Charmed on the t.v. in our garage then I did weights for 30 minutes.

Went to the track and did 5 intervals this morning. After school my daughter Jadzia wanted to go to the track. We kicked the soccer ball around a little bit then we ran a few laps.

Wore a short sleeved shirt and my jacket this morning and it was perfect. I ran through Santa Clara and along Snow Canyon Parkway. Nice run. I cut my run short because I had to be home before 9a.m. It is my daughters birthday and we were having a party at noon at the new park in our neighborhood. Of course my daughter had to invite everyone in her kindergarten class and primary so I ended up with 14 six year olds. They all wanted pizza and soda at the exact same time. Phew! I'd rather run a marathon than do that again. :-) Although my daughter had a great time
