Hi everyone.

Sorry I've been behind on keeping the first post up to date.

After the 10 mile race, my training plan had three days off from running... first time since April that I went that long without running. I probably could have run yesterday and been fine, but I decided to just follow the plan.

Yesterday, I did do an hour of work on the bathroom remodel, so I'll count that... sweating bullets tearing out sheetrock and going up and down stairs with loads of debris... I think that counts.

This morning was back to running... 73 degrees and 100% humidity... it was really foggy and at times felt like I was running through a cloud.

4.1 miles in 49 minutes.

Total for the month is 315/1600

First post is updated with all the great progress in my 3 days away...keep it up everyone!!

That's just walks and stretching class at the Y. I did spend 30 minutes yesterday picking blueberries, but I'm not counting that. Although, I think that's what tweaked a muscle behind my knee-ouch! We did chop on our tree, but DH broke out the sawzall (or however you spell it!) and I just stood on the branches for him and giggled because the vibration tickled my feet!

Keep moving!

Went out to run/walk while it was still relatively cool. 2.55 mile is 40 min.

Our local running store had a fun run this evening as a promo for the Hood to Coast race. Nike was one of the sponsors and was offering trial runs with their shoes so I tried out a pair. Not the best choice and ended up walking more than I would have liked.

Well at least I found out that shoe was not the one for me. Also they had two courses mapped out a 4 mile and a 7 mile. Well turned out the 4 mile was really 4.8 miles.

So my 74 mins ended up being a 15:24 pace. Yeah me. That is the best I have done and the farthest I have run/walked.
