| Well, baby interference again. But aren't they worth it?! Heather's little cutie set us back so we only got in 3.2. But since I was DRAGGING anyway, that was OK w/ me. The plan is run hills tomorrow then weight class and run long Wed. Then I'm on my own in CA for Thurs-Tues- I will try to get in a couple runs out there. | |

Chose to sleep in - the kids were freaked out due to the power outage so they ended up in my bed- I didn't sleep well. Lousy excuse I know... really I was just LAZY! Then I was stressed all day trying to figure out when I'd fit in my workout. Why do I do this to myself?! Had a few minutes to race to the gym and got in 2.5 on the treadmill. Definately felt my workout was cut short, but told myself if it was short I'd make it count! I started w/ 10 min mile pace for about 5 min, then keep increasing speed every few minutes. Held it at 8:30 pace for about 8 minutes. That felt good. I forget what it feels like to run faster when I always do slow easy runs w/ Heather (we chat the whole time)
Will do some toning tonight also.
I've been thinking lately that for me personally, training for spring Marathon might be easier than training for a fall one. I have more of a schedule in the winter and I'm better at training then. The summer is so crazy for me w/ family schedule. Ok- done whining....
Plan is to go long w/ Heather tomorrow before I leave town for a week....

| Long run w/ Heather didn't work out. Still haven't heard from her, I'm sure she has family stuff going on. So I went it alone around 10:45 am this morning. I think it was about 105 degrees out. I planned a run that had 2 water stops so I could drench myself. It worked, I got through, albeit (sp?) at a slow pace. It took me 42 min. to run 4 miles (inc. stops). Not quite a 12 miler, but glad I logged some miles anyway. Will try to get a least a couple miles everyday while on vacation in CA, leave later today, back next Wed. | |

| Used pool this morning for workout. Swam laps for 1/2 hr. Amazing how that can tire me. Really want to run, but no treadmill here and not safe due to traffic. Tonight we move to hotel in Santa Cruz in walking distance to beach. Plan on running beach this evening or tomorrow morning. Having an amazing vacation w/ Jim. First time we've been on a trip alone in over a year. Great to reconnect!!!!!! | |

Went on a morning run in Santa Cruz along West Cliff Drive by Lighthouse State Beach- Beautiful! Went out about 7:30 am and hardly anyone was on the trail. Nice wide trail overlooking the ocean along the cliffs. Felt good on this run, didn't take a watch but pace felt good. Ankles were a little sore afterwards. Not sure if its my lower calves or ankles. Also- might be caused from my other shoes, not necessarily my running shoes-not sure what the deal is. But I've been doing alot of walking on this vacation in high flip flops- probably not the best for my feet!
Loved this run!!! Can't beat the scenery. Temp was nice also, 75 degrees with a slight ocean breeze- oh I envy the locals who can do this run everyday! | |
