I ran 3.6 with Lynsey this morning. I was feeling super good so I thought I'd go for 5 and made it to 6.2 :)  First mile was 8:30 and every mile after that was an 8 even.  I was trying to burn off this delicious fathers day cake Wes' mom made...Carmel Cake w/ Cookies and Cream Ice Cream!!!!

5 miles today with Lynsey and it was tough for some reason.  We ran a little later so I blame it on the sun :)  I wore the shorts that are getting too small for me and we got some yells from the construction workers by our houses.  Then we ran into some rough terrain and I thought we were in some kind of obstacle course.  Lynsey kept trying to flip tree branches into my face.  

avg pace was 8.01

I am supposed to cross train today.  I really needed the sleep this morning.  I'll do something today I am sure.  Tomorrow 8 miles :)

I made my Amish Friendship Bread today.  Why does that bread really have to take 10 days?  I guess so we'll be looking forward to it more?  Anyone want a starter?  anyone anyone?????

PM - 5 miles on TM

3 mile warm up (23:30)

1.5 miles at 6 min mile (9 mins)

.5 cool down (4 mins)

Felt really good, but the gym was sooo hot.  I know I am pretty sweaty to begin with, but this was unnatural.  Where's the AC golds???

Ugh I was lagging this morning.  I think it's b/c I ran 5 last night at 6pm OR it was the Amish bread slowing me down :)  Either way I am ok w/ 4.5

Avg pace was 8:05.

Ran 6 with the SF running club (met a nice girl Ashley.  she works at maceys and we came in at the same time at last years memorial day 5k in spanish.  i see her all the time, glad i know her now) and 4 by myself.  Also ran into Rachel  & Mackenzie for 5 seconds, and I gave the speedy gals some water, they were doing some speed work. 

Did a 5k test (somewhat, it's not the same for me w/ out the competition and adreneline) at mile 6.  Did it in 21:30.  Makes me think my Speedy Span goal, might be a bit high :)  I've got some work to do.  Fastest 5k is 20 something.  I need to get it under 20 then maybe get my 10k to 40:30??? 

Anyway I felt fine during the run and then like always I get a huge HEADACHE later in the day.  Why is it when I run longer mileage I get horrible headaches? Is it b/c I am not getting enough sleep the night before?  Mr. Hackett threatened to not let me run anymore b/c I am  usally worthless the rest of the day.  I can take asparin and I am fine, but I hate taking it every Saturday.

Funeral was good.  It was Wes' uncle and he really was a great guy!  He died from cancer.
