Brent- you're right- races DO come up fast! thanks for the motivation (again!)
This Friday we leave for Disney! Whoo-hoo! 5 days in CA. So I plan on working out good all this week, knowing I won't be running much next week- but I will be walking my booty off in the Magic Kingdom. | |

Nice late morning solo run. Sun was shining, gorgeous St. George day. Played "don't look at the Garmin" was wearing it but didn't want to be influenced by it. Just wanted to feel the groove. Ended up with 4 miles at 9 min. mile pace. Was suprised at how consistent my miles were- all 4 were just about 9 min miles within 5 second differences for each mile (if that makes sense)
Brent- what would I do without you! YES- I accept the challenge. How could I not? I only want to make one minor change to the challenge and you can deduct points as you see fit...I need to get in my weight class 1 day this week and possibly a spin class. So I'm committing to running 5 miles on 5 days out of 7 (not 5 in a row as was the original challenge). WOW- this is going to be tough for me- considering I hardly ever run over 4.25 miles lately and truly I'm doing cross training more than running lately (and not even much CT). But much needed. The weather is PURRRFECT down here, I need to train for the Zion's 10 k next month and I want to lose these frickin' 10 lbs. SO - YES! And THANK YOU for always inspiring me!! You're my lifeline on this blog!
Reading everyone's race reports has me jonesin' to race. I just found out the local Girl Scouts are doing a little 5k the first week of April. I'm going to register for that right now! (I miss the Cookie Chaser that I used to do up north) Think my son is going to run it also, so that will be fun.

| 3 mile bike ride with the kids to feed the ducks at the pond. Beautiful Sunday! Later walked about 1.5 ish with family & doggy on golf course. I figured these 4.5 miles were only worth about 2 miles cross training. But had to count something! | |

| HA HA..OK the .06 is a joke... but Yippee! Actually got myself out of bed early for a solo 5 miler. That's right- no gym, no partner. All thanks to Brent's motivation! It was invigorating. Really nice, cool morning, no wind. I took it really easy, played "no garmin peeking" again. Amazing consistent again- all miles within 15 seconds, most within 5-10 seconds. Quite a bit slower than Saturday's run though, 9:30 av. pace instead of 9. Not gonna beat myself up about pace though. Felt really good throughout the run like I had energy in reserve. And this is actually the longest run I've been on in awhile (sad I know, considering this used to be a daily given). Passed Deb Z., amazing woman- my idol! She has run ALL of the St. George marathons. In her 50's, cancer survivor, gorgeous and going strong! Oh yeah..and I've been passed up by her in races...she kicks my trash. | |

Solo night run. It was DARK, ran with flashlight. Very nice temp- t-shirt & shorts. Darkness makes me slow down, don't want to trip. First mile was 8:38 while there was still some light left (and it was down hill). But my overall pace ended up 9:27. Kinda bummed that I wasn't faster but this is probably good considering it was late, dark and I'm just getting back on the wagon after lots of slacking. | |

Nice LONG walk with Julie, Crystal & Mady all around the lake at Daybreak. Sunny, windy day.
Also got in some abs & arms today
feeling like a loser for not getting in 5 days of 5 miles, but I did get in more quality runs than I have in a long time. so all is not lost! i am pumped up and looking forward to even more quality runs next week! | |

Survived organizing my first 5k! I think the day was pretty successful! We had a great turnout and lots of fun things for kids to do (bounce house, cow train, park, etc) The weather cooperated very well. The course had lots of uphill and I think a few people may still be cursing us for that. The timing had a few glitches, but not too bad for a first year event. Phew! Glad its over! One more thing off my plate. I REALLY appreciated the race organizers (Jason & Danielle Little), sponsors, friends & families who made this day a success for the fight against Lou Gehrig's disease. Thanks everyone!!!!
I was so inspired after watching runners in the morning that I laced up my shoes and went out for an afternoon 5 miler. Had to cut it a little short because of the afternoon heat (I didn't bring water) Guess its that time of year already when you ALWAYS have to bring water!
9 min av. pace

| Spin class for 45 minutes today. Good workout with hills & sprints. I'm going to assign it 4.5 cross training miles. | |

| Look at me go! Yes...I'm "tooting" my own horn -LOL. I've gotten up early 2 days in a row to workout. That's great for me these days. Today I went to the gym, planning on doing Pump class. Saw my running chics in the parking lot and decided to run with them. Didn't take a garmin, I'm going to guess 3.5 mi. We kept a good pace and never stopped for 35 minutes. Could've been closer to 4 miles, who knows? Then I finished up the pump class, got in some abs & arms. Now, if I can just stay away from the delicious viking cookies I made last night! | |
