I'm not crazy...I'm just bored!!

Nice easy Monday. Have to work again *sigh* so I couldn't do all I wanted at the gym, but I also wasn't willing to get up early :)

10 min walking @ 5% to get warmed up, still have some lingering in my legs from the 10 miler Saturday, not pain just regular carry over.

2 miles @ 9:50 on the TM (with a quick potty break thanks to shifting baby!)

upper body, core and squats all on the bosu ball

2 miles @ 9:40 on the TM...finished out the full 20 minutes so I got like 2.05 :)

bosu ball stuff again.

Plan is: 4,6,4,6, off, 10 for the week. I'm not going to increase my miles now - I want to just stay 20-30 each week for the next 10-12 weeks until baby is here!

BBK morning. I was honestly a little sad when I woke up and I didn't have the excuse of the snow to send me back to bed! Just wind, and I couldn't talk myself out of it :(

Garmin died after .6 miles, so I'm going off of others. I think I got a bit over 6 in, but I'll call it 6 even. As far as pace goes I'm sure I was somewhere in the neighborhood of 9:20-9:30, on some of the downhills there was a bit of a pick-up, but the uphills were blech! No idea really, just a guess :)

I'm glad I got up and out now - but it was hard this morning, I'm SO not a morning person and getting out of the habit for a few months makes it harder to get back to it now.

Off to the gym for total body class (she does GREAT resistance), then a little elliptical or bike...haven't decided yet.

***Total body was legs, legs, and more legs - glad I did the miles first! Then I did 6 mile on the recumbent bike at L4 to spin out some of that soreness that will be coming!***

Woke up tired. After a nap yesterday and 10 hours last night, I thought I'd feel better - but I was still dragging! 

Went to Boot camp, which was some kick-boxing and circuits. Tons of core today, it gets harder and harder each week. I'm honestly just happy I can still move and bend!

Decided I'd only do one mile on the TM; however, thanks to amazing Kelli I had someone to talk to and before I knew it I had done three and was feeling GREAT! I'd do the 4 I had planned on from the first of the week, even though it would put my day care time over.

3 miles @ 9:50 pace and 1@ 9:30 (did it mostly @ 9:40 then sped up the last .25 and ended running an 8:30...felt GREAT!! YAY!)

I was really happy that I felt good when I was finished. I was SO exhausted after yesterday, but feel amazing today. I now am ready to take on the BBK's again tomorrow morning AND it should be warm - hallelujah!!

Restless night, weird dreams, stuffy nose...needless to say it was easy to get up this morning, although I was still tired!

Met the BBK's at a location infamous for hills, and I wasn't disappointed!  Easy warm-up for about 1.5 miles then up and over the Oquirrh Mountain Temple hill three times. So that I wasn't SO far behind as soon as I reached the last person, I'd turn and go back over. I never made it all the way to the bottom, Aaron was nice enough to 'walk' up the hill with me a couple times.

When I heard the garmin hit 3 miles I was SO impressed with myself that I had kept the overall AP UNDER a 10mm I just about jumped for joy! It's not an easy hill, and to average out under 10 just seemed like a near miracle. On review, I was actually keeping it around an 11mm on the uphills and I would've thought I was closer to a 12-13mm.

We did a couple more loops through the 'hoods and around the park, I ended with 6 even - and alone at the back :( However, this is totally expected when running with this crowd. Those that I can usually keep up with were gone today.

AP: 9:37 splits: 9:40, 9:57, 9:57, 9:41, 9:05 (whoo hoo!), 9:21.

Now I'm off to yoga - my favorite part of the week, then I'm DONE today....well, except maybe a mid-day nap if Star Wars Wii will babysit for a few minutes :)

Good rest last night...off to the gym for 'rest/recovery' day before long run tomorrow.

90 minutes of walking on the TM on 10% grade @ 3mph. Total of 4.5 miles, and some GREAT company the whole time. 

All right, so here is my invitation: I want to do 10-12 on Porter Rockwell tomorrow at 7AM, is anyone interested in meeting me and shuffling along with the slow pregnant woman? I'd really enjoy some company :)

Woke up at  4 this morning...I guess my body is getting used to me waking it at obscene hours on Saturday. Luckily I fell back asleep about 20 minutes later, but I didn't feel nearly as awake when the alarm went off at 6 :(  Another night of weird pregnancy dreams - had the baby this time, 15 pounds and I was tired so I fell asleep during the delivery and had to ask the doctor if I got an epidural or not. Oh, and he looked about 8 months old and had 4 teeth :)

Dropped gatorade at the end of Porter Rockwell so that I'd have motivation to get to the end, plus I dehydrate  a lot faster now and that is one thing I can't let happen now. Was SO happy to see a crowd waiting at the beginning, plus lots of new bloggers to meet and chat with: The amazing Kathie, Coach Slick, Crazy Maynard, Sweet Leslie and Speedy Smoothie.

Started out wonderfully, and the uphill gave me a run for my money, but I kept it nice and easy and I appreciate Coach and Maynard hanging with the slow pregnant lady! I had a wonderful visit with them, as we watched the grannies fade off into the horizon. Again about mile 4.5 I was reminded that  I am a distance person - I finally started feeling good!! The trip back was downhill and much faster (which with me now still isn't saying much). I could've added a couple more, but decided I was good and would leave those last 2 mystery miles for next week.

AP: 9:35 splits: 9:51, 9:57, 9:44, 9:42, 9:28, 9:29, 9:24, 9:20, 9:46, 9:28, 9:18.

Party afterward was amazing as usual, plus Kathie showed us some great party tricks which I will now have to learn how to do :) Thanks again for everyone coming to keep me motivated and keep me company! I had a wonderful time and THIS is why I love running - good friends, good running, good food and good fun!!
