Stroller pushin in Texas

10 miles on the TM.  It was REALLY cold out this morning.  Did some quarter mile repeats in there.  A worker at the gym told me that I have so much energy and I just keep going and going.  It just looks that way.

8 miles on the TM.  1200 ft of climbing MMGW.  Before coming back down the mountain I ran for 5 min @ 8.0 @ 1%.  I did that again once I finished.  Pretty boring.

I really liked this workout today. 10k with a 1 mile warm up and 1 mile cool down.  The base has a definite 5k route they use for all of the base 5ks.  Might as well use this course because I know it very well.  Ran it reverse the second time.  My goal was to hit each 5k somewhere between 21-23 minutes.  This workout made me a little nervous to see what I can do.  

1.2 miles of warm up

5k- 22:24

Drink

5k- 21:37!!  

Drink and cool down home.

I can't lie and say I didn't stop, because I did and I stopped my watch.  The stops were not longer than 10 seconds, so I thought it was ok.  I have a great Thursday speed work out!  It was hard but my body felt really good doing this.  Gave me a boost of confidence to run 6 miles around 7 AP.  I also found out that I like the reverse of the 5k route better than the way they always put it on.

6 miles around the base in nice weather.  

It was cold outside and I didn't want to ask my friend to switch babysitting.  Took Naomi to the gym to see what would happen with her.  We got about 4.5 miles and then they kicked us off the track.  Yup, cause I was pushing a baby in a stroller.  I can push my stoller around, but not with my baby in it. OKKKKK???

ummm, I'm amazing.  jk. welllll.  This was an awesome run, 18 miles @7:52 AP.  :)  

Ran 8.3 miles around the base and back home.  Took 2 Salt Sticks and salted caramel GU.  Went back out and added 2 more miles to the same route I ran first but reversed.  

Cool weather with little wind made this a great run.
