5 very humid and hot miles run at 3pm in the hottest part of the day, but along the beautiful beaches of Ambergis Caye, Belize.  It was the only run I got in all week accept for all the running after my kids I did.  I actually lost a couple pounds on this vacation.  :)

Belize was wonderful just like last time.  Looks like I may have a chance to go back again next year, but I'm not going to miss SGM again.  I was thinking of you all as you raced.  I did get on line long enough to flip through the race times, but have not read any reports yet. I am so excited to read them all.  Congrats to you all for your great efforts.

I needed to get in a run this evening to get myself feeling back to normal after our trip. The kids wanted to go to the gym, so I took them and did a TM run. I set in on the hills setting level 4 which went as high as 3.6% incline and changed incline every minute. I did the first 5 miles at 7.5 (8:00) then mile 6 at 8.6 (7:00) and then back to 7.5 through 60 minutes, which put me at 7.68 miles. I then did a cool down walk to finish out the 8th mile. Accept for the one faster mile the whole run felt very easy and my foot felt good but not perfect.

20 minute stairs speed interval level 20 running equivalent 3 miles

It's time to get serious about training again.
