Good run w/ Heather -left from her house and over to Industrial area & back.  I was feeling slow, but good.  Happy to find I wasn't even sore from Saturday's long run.  Getting pumped for a 5K this month, then the 1/2 next month! Really been enjoying this blog.  I started it in early March and have seen that being accountable for my workouts has really helped me to work out more often.  My goal for this week is 20 miles inc. a hill workout and in addition- 2 strength training classes at the gym...

Had to DRAG myself out of bed for 6am weight class at gym.  I usually only step on the scale 2x a week, but decided to today.  Depressing! Easter did me in! Oh well, I'm going to tighten up the diet and hopefully shed a few pounds...

Speedwork at the track.  6 x 400s w/ 1/2 lap recovery between.  Found my average 400 m time is 1:49.  Now my goal is to try to see how fast I can run the mile w/o recovery laps in between.  I decided to reg. for Run 4 Kids this Sat.- just the 5K, kids are doing the shorter run.  Looking forward to it.  However, gotta beat a cold.  Coughing a lot after trackwork...

Good, slow 3.8 (w/ hills) with H & JE.  I usually don't run the day before a race, but I felt good so I did.  I'll have to see if I feel it makes any difference at the race tomorrow. H's got a new mix for my ipod for tomorrow.  Looking forward to the race, fun 'cause the kids are doing the kids run and Jim will actually be able to go to a race for a change (usually conflicts w/ his work schedule)

Beat my PR by about a min. and 1/2 so thrilled with that! But I underestimated the course.  Figured it would be an easy 5k so didn't sleep or eat as well as I should have in preparation.  There were some tough inclines on the course.  Was a little disappointed that I didn't get 3rd! Wanted to place! But thrilled with my time and that's what counts.  The race was very well run I thought.  Friendly staff.  Nice that they gave out full sized gatorades.  My son ran the 1k and the balls they gave the kids were a nice touch.  Would do this race again, but be better prepared for the hills.  Chose the 5k instead of the 10k because I didn't want to be sore next week.  I want to get in a long run Monday and am focused on training for the 1/2 marathon next month.
