Running Around

Ran 7 miles in the heat of the afternoon around 3pm.  Would have gone earlier but Mark and I went back to sleep after putting the flags out at 5am.  pace ave (9:24).  I took a couples breaks because I kept "running" into people.  I first stopped to talk to Mr. & Mrs. Anders for a few minutes.  I saw another couple while running and the man said "Nice stride!,  Seriously!"  It made me feel pretty good.  I passed theses people 2 other times and by the last time, I felt like we were friends.  The last words of encouragement  - "You are the Energizer Bunny."  I also stopped once at home to go to the bathroom and measure a space for a new bathroom.  I love and appreciate every sunny Spring day!

1 mile warm up.  400, 600, 800, 600, 400 with 200 recovery X 2.  I had to go to the bathroom before the 800 in the second set.  My next two splits were a little slower.  Overall a great workout.  I liked the variety of this ladder.

I didn't get my run in.  I wore my running shoes, running clothes, and tank all day.  I finally had to shower before scouts.  At least I intended on running today.  argh!!

nice and easy run this morning.  I don't know any of my stats because my new watch isn't sinking with Garmin Connect.  

It's been a crazy week!  End of school stuff.  Still 2 more weeks of school.  When days are busy, I can't hesistate when it comes to running because then I miss my window and can't get it back. Hopefully I can plan better next week.
