Time 49:51 AP 9:58 Recovery

Woke up @ 6:10am to drop Jane off at Pioneer Trek. I'll miss her all week. Kind of wish I was going cause I think it would be cool to go to Martin's Cove. I'm  planning on 4 yrs from now when 2 of my kids will be going.

Ran 5 miles alone @ 7:15am. I ran down around Falcon and all the way up Falcon way. My legs and feet and still pretty sore from the weekend runs. I'm trying to not think about my mileage for this week. Just taking it a day at a time so I don't freak myself out. (50 miles)

6x10sec hill sprints @ Flat Iron

Time 1:40:50 AP 10:05

Jeff and I left at the same time but I ran alone. I guess it must say pace run on the schedule but I feel like I'm still recovering. My legs are still tired and my feet sore. During the first mile, when I could see Jeff way out in front of me, I was wondering how in the hell I was going to run 10 miles today and then I saw Lysa!:) She ran with me for a couple of miles and it was great to see and talk with her. Anyway, I ran the 10. Nothing to write home about.

Walked .6 home from the park.

Going to order some discounted Glycerin 8's online right now.

Power Yoga 1- 52 minutes. I really needed this. Namaste.

Time 49:58 AP 10

Ran with Jeff. Ran a different route which was nice. Ran slow.

6x10sec hill sprints @ Flat Iron Mesa Park. It was really busy there today.

Time 1:40:32 AP10:03

Went by myself this morning. Beautiful cool morning. Beautiful sunrise. During the second mile I almost got hit by a newspaper deliverer that was racing around the streets. Sheesh! I also saw Jeff riding his bike during this mile (still around home) but he didn't see me until some girls running towards me screamed from sprinkler water hitting them. Jeff looked back and I waved. Looking back now I should have biked with him or swam this morning. During the last half of this run my left shin, the lower part of it, started hurting. I wore new shoes this morning and kept thinking "It can't be the shoes it's gotta be the mileage I'm putting in." I mean, I've been running in glycerins and been  fine. It just got worse and worse throughout the run, spreading down into my foot. I stretched around mile 7. I saw the hot air balloons that were out this morning and that was cool. Jeff rode up behind me at mile 8 and I told him I was just trying to finish let alone run fast cause I was in pain. He rode beside me for a while. After he left me some guy tried to flip a u in the middle of the road RIGHT where I was trying to run. HELLO PEOPLE! Seriously?

So now I'm pissed. I've never felt anything this bad. I want to cry and I don't know what to do. In the back of my mind I kept thinking this schedule was too much for me and I should cross train, then rest, then do long run. Now I'm paying for not following my instinct. I just thought if I took it slow I'd be okay but maybe...crap, I don't know what I did wrong but I really want to swear right now! I don't even know if I should stretch it or do yoga cause it feels worse than something that needs to be stretched. I took my kids to the doctor this morning and I could barely walk. It really hurts when I try and flex my foot. So lower shin and into my foot. Whatever that's called. Ugh!

 Happy Birthday to my baby Josie who is 2 today!
