Running!

I did 1 and 1/4 miles of swimming, and it was pretty hard.

First I did a 475 meter swim, then my goggles came off so I readjusted them before doing 525 meters.  Then I took a break and did another 500, then another break and another 500.  I'm definately still a runner but I'm glad I got a workout in and got my swimming done for this month and last month for lifeguarding.  It took me a total of about 50 minutes, including breaks.

Easy 2, first run since state so I didn't push it!

Started to feel my time off around the end of the run- that's probably where I'll need to build back up from.  No ill effects, however, my foot and my muscles feel fine! 

On a treadmill- ugh!  It was a little under a 10 minute pace, but I still got winded.  My hips have been a little sore since, but we'll see how it works out. 

This is just a guess- I worked out for about and hour and 15 minutes but about 45 of them were core.

I went back to my doctor this week.  He said 3 miles every other day was as much as I should be doing for 2 weeks, but I think the second week I'll do 4 miles every other day.

My plan for the next few weeks:

1. 3 miles every other

2. 4 miles every other

3. 3 miles every day

4. 4 miles every day

5. 3-4-5, 3-4-5 

We'll see where it goes from there.

I went from my house to Sugarhouse, did a lap around the inner loop and took a little longer route back to get 3 miles.  It felt pretty good but I had a... "stomach ache" is the best way to put it because it wasn't a side ache but it still hurt- maybe it was from ab workout yesterday but I think I might be sick because it's hurt after I eat for about a week and after lunch today it hurt a lot.

I warmed up with my sister for about the first half mile, then I kept going by myself.  It was relatively flat but I felt like I was pushing most of the time.   

I took it easy and it felt really good.  It was a beautiful day for running!

24 hour relay again, I didn't come until about 12:15 because I had to work.  There were 5 people on my team this time so that was very nice.  We did 26 miles all together that shift, so we nearly ran a marathon!  All together we did 186 miles. 

I went in the morning around the neighborhood. I still haven't gotten a watch, but it was about ten minute miles and felt ok- my legs are great, but my cardio still needs work.

I ran with my dad and my neighbor, we did about 9 minute miles and it felt pretty good.

24 hour relay, I had the 11 to 2 shift but since it was basically all one run, I'm just putting it on the same day.  Only 3 of us from our team showed up, so it was pretty tiring.

3 easy miles in the morning- this week I'm planning on getting in about 3 miles a day but I might do six on Thanksgiving and then rest the next day... 

I ran with my dog again- I forgot that she doesn't do well on a lot of hills or running two days in a row, so it was pretty slow...

I did a small warm up before the race, and I started really far back.  The first mile was really slow because I was in the mass and trying to get around people.  About halfway through I was able to run pretty freely.  I didn't race this one- I would have started up farther if I had- so it felt pretty good.  I don't want to race until track season, I need the recovery time. 

I checked the miles on my shoes today, I've done 134.25

I had a good run, but about a mile away from my house this random dog started following me and it stayed with me until I got home- it was quite nice companionship actually.
