I had a great run, especially because I wasn't sure I'd get any miles in :) It was pitch black when I ran at 7:30. So depressing...It was chilly enough to put on a long sleeved t-shirt. This is the first weekend I've had to do that. And oddly enough, I just checked and the weather channel said it's 70 right now. Weird. Maybe it felt colder because of the wind. Anyway, my first mile was about 8:45 and my second was 8:10. I wasn't feeling too winded, so I thought I would just go with it. The third mile felt easy--but when I looked at my watch it was 7:57. My last mile was 7:28. This is the first time in at least month that I have timed anything I've been running (except for a some speed work on the track, but I wasn't really paying attention to it). I wish I had a race lined up soon. I have Columbus Day free from meets. Maybe I'll look and see what I can find. Also, lifted again. My shoulder is starting to feel somewhat better, but now that it's getting better, I am going to start doing the exercises I was given.

| Didn't run with the kids today. They ran while I was in a faculty meeting, so I was on my own. Ran 20 minutes warm up, 10 minutes fast, 20 minutes cool down. The sad thing was that for 6 of the 10 fast minutes I was running into 23 MPH wind (gusting up to 31 MPH). So while I was exerting myself, I was still moving only slightly faster than my warm up. It was that kind of wind that makes your eyes tear up. |

| A slow 5 miles. I ran with a couple of the JV boys. It was slow and conversational... My tummy hurt today.

| An easy run before the heavens opened up and stormed on us. We started our workout, but only got in 1 mile before we had to go back in, so we did some ab work. |

| Ran the warm up with the kids, then after their 200s I went inside to solve a pants crisis: our warmup outfits are missing. And then it was team meeting and helping set up for the homecoming hoopla. Our football team won a narrow victory 20-19. They are doing well this year--no losses. |

| I did manage to run 6 days this week, but my mileage is pitiful. Ran a couple miles by myself, then found the girls and ran with them during the rest of their warm up. And then it was only a little running here and there during the race. Then nothing. I went home with hubby and kids, who were there cheering. The race itself sorta sucked. My girls team suffered an implosion of sorts but still managed to take 3rd place. My first 3 girls did okay, but then I had to depend on my 7th runner and 3 jv girls. The boys team was lackluster, except for my top runner. I think these kids had homecoming on the brain. We have a rough week with back to back races, but then a free weekend.
