Ran 4 miles in the parking garage with my friend to get some hills in. Went to the gym with my husband and did 3 miles of speed work on the treadmill. Very difficult to run on the treadmill but still feels great to run!

Ran with Kristel and Sue did 4 miles then another 3 with Kristel and we sped things up a bit! Nice run, despite my junk food weight that I was carry'n around with me! Weather a little chilly for NO, windy! But towards the end wind died down and it was nice. No dogs this morning though! I will have to take them later this evening!

Ran with Kristel and we kept a 8:25 average pace, which we were very happy with. So great having someone to run with! I would have wimped out this morning if it were not for Kristle! Thanks!

We ran the parking garage to get some "hills" in. Did this last week as well but today we were able to speed up our pace a little, so it was a good workout! Taken tomorrow off we are running a 10k on Sat. and want to try and run it at a 8 min/mile pace.

No running this week. Pulled my anterior tibialis I am pretty sure. Took off the last couple days and tried to run this morning and didn't even make it one minute. Don't want to make things worse and "run through it", I know this one isn't going away with-out some time off unfortunately! Sorry Kristel! Next week though we will get in our 50! The bike will have to do for now.

Hit the gym today, did eliptylce and bike. Leg feels much better but not quite healed enough to run. One maybe two more days and I should be good. Lifted weights with my husband and he killed me! Arms are sore! But feels great! Ready to hit the road though, getting pretty grouchy!

Hit the road again, after taking some time off. Took dogs to Mississippi for a little run. Was great! Leg was sore, but not unbearable.

Good run with Kristel this morning. Boy taking even a little time off, you sure feel it! Legs seem to be more tired than usual! Good run though! Is there such a thing as a "bad" run? I don't think so!!
