AP 9:20.  I did run  2 of those @ 8:30 pace.  I stayed inside on the treadmill because the moment I was heading out the door it was blizzarding.  However briefly this cold shot lasts, this weather and this week is killing me.  Everything I've touched has turned to crap this week.  I wanted to be outside and do a few quick quarters, or get a little closer to VO2 capacity than those 8:30's....but inside I sweat off like 2 pounds. So I'll take the effort and the mileage as a triumph for today.  Because what I really wanted is to stay home under the covers until next week, or whenever it's 75 degrees again.

Luz ~ Mother Nature was fooling around too much lately!!!

Your run today's a PERFECT taper run! Here's the taper plan I'm following:

Let's hope the East dries up in 18 days or we might be running in swimming suits!

GOOD JOB this week despite bad weather and taper madness!

KP-- I won't be jealous in August ! I have family in the South. But there is nothing like the Spring down there!

Smooth-- My friend in Hopkington's basement is totally flooded. I'll still be there Sun Night, but I'm sad for her. Thanks for the taperschedule. I'm sad about Saturday, being a working mom and a 'single-parent' (no matter how briefly) sucks. I need diamond-girl time. Especially now!!

Sorry life's been so crazy - I hate it when you can't get the kind of run you need in when you REALLY need it! Good luck with finding that diamond time!
