Left at 5:30am. I was still asleep and forgot to turn on my garmin for the first couple minutes. I ran with two friends. We ran up Newcastle and up the trail which I was excited about cause I wanted to try my yaxtrax on the trail. It was cold but beautiful! I actually stayed pretty warm most of the time. There was light snow falling. I  had a stomach cramp from the beginning that I thought would go away but it just got worse. I've never felt that bad on a run. I couldn't wait to get home. I think it was a really bad gas bubble. I need to start drinking tea before bed or not eat a bunch of broccoli for dinner the night before.

Will do Power Yoga during nap time. 52 minutes

Gave Jill's new workout another try since I was sore from it the other day. 40 minutes

Some of my "favorite" moves=

burpies

mountain climbers

plank jacks

double crunches (apparently a pilates move, never done it)

caterpillar (down to extended plank and keep extending...don't drop....freak'in hard!)

spider planks

side plank with knee lifts (top leg stays straight but bring in bottom leg and extend back out, inner thigh workout as well as core and arm...hellllooooo!)

4 mile treadmill run in 34:25 (6.0 warm-up and the rest was between 6.5 and 8.0)

Time 56:12 AP 9:02 Fastest mile was 3 @ 8:25 

We left at 6am and I ran with the same friends as Monday plus Betsy. She had already run 8 miles, met us and ran with us and went home to get her dog and go more. She's training for a 50 miler I guess. If I keep running with her I might qualify for Boston running Odgen. She's fast. It was a tough run this morning but good for me. Lots of hills. We went up past the Buffalo. There's even a light shining on it so you can see it really well in the dark. They must be so darn proud of that thing. Down the hill (fastest mile) and then up and up Highland. Back up toward Albion to run Jill home and then back toward home to run Deb home and Betsy ran me home. She runs fast and talks my ear off. I just listen and try to keep up. My legs are really tired and I'm sore. I think it's from running outside Monday. The last time I had been outside was New Year's Eve.  It's so much harder on my body to run outside, esp. in winter. It's good to be sore right?

Nice to have it over and done with. I need to take a nap when Josie does cause she woke up at 3:30am. She's getting sick again and I think it's an ear infection. I tossed and turned and couldn't go back to sleep until about 4:30. I was nervous about meeting these guys on time and couldn't stop thinking about primary/church stuff. Sometimes I hate being the leader in charge.

Time 1:37:24 AP 9:45 Ugh.

Left around 5:40am and went by myself. It was warmer thank goodness. Never thought I'd be excited about 25 degrees (I don't know exactly what it was but around that). Before I left I looked out the window and my street looked pretty clear so I didn't wear my yaktrax. I regretted that decision after the first mile. It was pretty slushy, icy, snowy and toward the end of my run I ended up on the sidewalk a lot and wishing I had them on. The friends I ran with Wed. told me I would ruin them if I ran on the clean street so I didn't want to wear them if there wasn't enough snow. Whatever...hard to know. It was foggy but pretty with the new snow. There were a lot of hills but that's part of the joy of running around here.

I was excited to run this 10 this morning. It's been about a month since I ran this far I think. I started my training for the marathon today officially! I called my friend in Vegas yesterday who is running Ogden with me and she sent me her schedule which she started two weeks ago, oops. I've pretty much been doing what she has so not too worried. I would like to be able to keep up with her for most of this race but she's faster than me right now so I'm hoping if I use her schedule I can keep up with her. She is trying to qualify for Boston but will be 40 so she needs a 3:50. I need a 3:45 so it's long shot for me. I'll try again at St. George if I don't make it or wait till next year when I'm 40 and my time is 3:50. I really am not expecting to qualify, I'm just dream'in. Will do my best! Excited to have a training schedule with hill training, speed work, tempo runs and all that. Feel'in great!
