Icky TM run.  Got the miles in and that is all that mattered.  Had to stop at 6.5 because I was boiling from the inside-out.  Took a bathroom break and finished the 1.5 at a slow pace.

Random core work.

Those that read my blog....

Should I make pumpkin cheesecake or lemon meringue pie for Thanksgiving?  Toss up.  I want to make the cheesecake because I know I won't be the only one eating it.  Although, I do not want to be stuck taking it home if hardly anyone eats it. My husband doesn't care either way... He loves all food equally.  

Workout:  4 miles in 28:43, Stairmaster for 30 minutes, weights for legs.

7 miles on the TM.  MMGW (Mexican Mountain Goat Workout).

I was proud that I could make it through this workout again.

Plan was to run 10 with David today, that didn't quite work.  Ran two miles and  felt completely lead legged from my workout the evening before.  We got to the rocky trail that circled the base and ran on it for about a mile.  The trail irritated my wart foot and I was being a complete baby.  I stopped running and told him he could go without me.

We both walked a mile and a half home.  So much for a calorie burning run before our feast.  

It was warm enough that we both ran in shorts and short sleeve shirts.  Can't say I have ran in such warm conditions on Thanksgiving.

I was supposed to run with the running group this morning, so I woke up at 6:30 to get ready.   The leader of the group texted me and said she was still to full from Thanksgiving dinner the night before to run.  Jumped back into bed and told David I wanted him to run 10 miles with me.  Woke up 2 1/2 hours later and we both got ready to run.  

We headed outside of the base onto a long stretch of highway going 1.5 miles west of the base.  We found a new highway that has opened up and ran back to base on that, loved it, no cars.  The wind was awful going east or south.  The rest of the run stunk, I felt gross and the wind was making me a grump.  David just kept running with me in good spirits, bless his heart.

We made a pit stop and went to his flight room on the base.  It was cool to see where he goes to learn how to fly everyday.  The room reeked of sweaty men and greasy popcorn, yummy.  I don't know how the students stay in a bright green painted room without any windows all day?

Back on the road we continued to jaunt into heavy winds.  I ran behind David so he would block the wind.  I was so happy when we finally hit 10 miles.  I was dizzy from the wind gusts when we got back home.
