I'm turning 40 on Halloween. I have mixed feelings about it.

For some reason I didn't exercise today.

I did make Caramel Popcorn for the first time and I can't beLIEVE what goes into that. Corn syrup, tons of brown sugar, lots of butter, sweetened condensed milk and vanilla. Wow! Then I ate too much of it and stayed really late watching Practical Magic on TV.

I'll do better tomorrow.

 Here is the 50 minute workout I did today. Taken from

http://leanbodieshf.com/?p=2578

Plyo Runs

plyometricdrills

 60 seconds of a plymetrics move between each 1/4 mile run as follows:

1/4 mile run
Squat Jumps
1/4 mile run
High Knees
1/4 mile run
Plank Jacks
1/4 mile run
Jumping Lunges 

Holy crap! I never thought running would be my recovery. My first mile I stayed at 6.0. Second and third mile I ran each interval between 6-6.5 until the last .25 I took it up to 7.0 Ran the 3 miles in 29:33.

Ward Halloween party tonight. I guess I'll be a clown.

Was supposed to run the Little Cottonwood Trail with a girl from my ward but she cancelled. I ran with Deb and took her on an 8 mile route Jeff and I ran a lot. Left at 6am. It was cold but clear so grateful for that. My body is sore from the plyo runs I did yesterday . Ouchiemama.

Still can't decide if I should run the Halloween half on Sat. Don't think I could stay with Kelli for 1:50 cause I've been such a freak'in slacker since the marathon. I wonder what pace Allie is running?

I ran alone around 8am and it was SO nice to run with light! Did the "buffalo run" Jeff calls it. It's a down up down run. Here are splits for fun.

8:55, 9:19, 9:50 (big, long gradual uphill) 9:15, 8:39 (down and flat)

Tried to run fast this morning. It's harder to run fast with extra weight on me. My visiting teacher brought me a bunch of soft, pumpkin chocolate chip cookies and I ate almost all of them myself.

My biceps are SO sore from yesterday's workout. I went really heavy on 'em.

Gardner Village with the kids today. Hope it's not too crowded.

Started out doing a kickboxing workout on demand and I didn't like it. 

Ended up doing a 40 minute Xtreme lower body workout holding 8 lb weights the whole time. I think there were 4 circuits. Some tough strength training moves with cardio blasts at the end of each circuit. (plyo moves)

  Then I ran to Falcon park to watch Sydney's soccer game. Ran down and watched the game. Ran around the park at the half and then ran home after the game.

3 miles total in 28:58 AP 9:40. Kind of weird to do such a short run on a Sat.
