Chilly run

Finally got out for another run, wanted to go for a bit longer of one but it wasn't in the cards.  It is a very chilly day and kind of windy so it wasn't really an enjoyable run.  I only did a short one but better than none at all.  The good thing though is that Danica is coming to Curves with me and we are trying to go 3 times per week.  She is a go getter and will keep me going.

Running....

So I finally ran again.  I have come to realize that these last 5 pounds will most likely not come off in the next few months.  With unpredictable weather and such I will just set my goal to maintain where I am right now and think more about the loss come spring.  I ran about 5K today.  Now to do some report cards then watch Danica's guitar recital.

Fresh air!

Finally got out for a run again.  I am feeling better and the weather cooperated!  A beautiful sunny day.  I did a 6.5k run.  Felt good to get out and get some fresh air again.

Finally!

I had been sick for about 2 weeks, a pounding head and very tired.  Friday morning when I woke up I was soaking wet, guess the 'fever' broke.  Anyhow apart from a couple of running club runs and the short daily runs with my class I haven't done anything.  Today I did a short, slow 25 minute run.  Going to ease back into it.  Felt good though!

Good week

Having a great week. I did curves yesterday and a run (6.5 km) today. What a beautiful sunny day today!

Yay!

I did the 8K yesterday and ran it in 46:52s over 4 minutes faster than last year! It felt good. I didn't push myself, just ran at a steady pace. Jason did the half marathon in 1 hour and 39 minutes, he reached his goal of less than 1 hour 40 minutes.

One more week

Next week at this time I will have finished my 8K race so today I pushed myself to do an 8K as fast as I could.  Although at times, I did realize I had gotten into a slow pace just running, I did try to improve my time.  I did 8K today about 3 minutes faster than my race last year.  Hopefully I'll be able to do the same when in the race in Victoria next weekend.
