Busy, Busy, Busy today.  Just getting around to blogging my morning run.

My calfs felt much better this morning so I decided to get some hill work in.  I did about a 4 mile warm up before hitting my hill loop.  I ended up getting in 16 hill sprints at an average of about 200 meters each for  about 2 miles of hill sprits and ran easy between each hill.  After the last one I was about on mile 10 so I then did 3 miles cool down. 

Total run 13 miles  1:41:29  AP 7:48

PM- 35 minutes jump rope and ab work while watching my Cougs go down to New Mexico.

Rhett..dude, I just saw your Painter's Half pictures...I suggest darker shorts next time. ;)

Laughing at Marc.

OK I haven't seen the pictures. I better go check. They were grey with black trim. What's up?

Let's just say your sweat pattern suggested a certain level of loss of bladder control. ;)

From Rhett on Wed, Jan 27, 2010 at 18:44:31 from 216.67.211.75

Heck that's nothing. You should have seen me from the back. :)

You know, when you're running well, you can't stop for anything. :)

Very nice workout! Love the hills, love the hills, love the hills.

Killer hill sprints and AWESOME miles! You have impressive calves! Cap'n Underpants did it again!

Whoever instituted the art of taking race pictures should be given a good whoopin'!!! I always look like I have gone to heck and back and have some serious challenges ... I HATE THEM I HATE THEM I HATE THEM!!! :) They should at least NOT be public!!! Yucky yucky yucky!!

You look great though (I'm talking about my pics not yours or anyone else's).

Nice workouts this week! Glad your calves are behaving, and yes, I like my little tens unit machine. I'm going to use it again tonight! :)

From Rhett on Fri, Jan 29, 2010 at 16:23:35 from 216.67.211.75

Sure Teena, I know you were talking about my pics. :) And that's ok, I did look like I was going to die on those ones the took around my 12. I was working my very hardest and my face and body showed it. I definitely don't have a poker face when I going all out. It makes me more in awe of those elites that keep a relaxed look the whole time.
