Slacker!

So I have been slacking on updating this blog. I'm sure all two of you have been very disappointed :). I have been running just not blogging about it. The past few weeks I've been taking it easy. Running about 4-5 times a week and getting between 25-30 miles in. Last Thursday I ran 8x400's and 2x200's with the group at the track in 100 degree weather! It sucked and was super hard but felt good once I got into my air conditioned car. I did 10 miles again on Saturday before the sun came up and it was magical....I love those quiet Saturday mornings.

As for the future...I am planning on running a 10k the first weekend of September and a 5k September 19th for ALS. We are hoping to get Bryant's mom up here from Spanish Fork so she can be a part of it as well.

Here's to the pain and joy of running!!!!

Hmmmm?

Yesterday I met up with some running friends again at the track and as we were cooling down, they started talking to me about triathlons. I have thought about doing one for a long time. I need to just DO IT! My parents have a pool, I have a bike and I know I can run....Now, I just need to find a good beginner one. 

This weeks runs:

Monday: 5.3 miles
Tuesday: 6.1 miles
Wednesday: 7.3 miles
Thursday: 1.25 mile warm up, 11x400 meters (1:20-1:26 pace with 60 second rest), 1 mile cool down

HECK YA!

I did it! I ran the 5K this morning in 19:35!!! I took 3rd overall in the women's! It felt so good to be that fast again. 

Who says that mom's can't be fast ;)
