Friday 2-24
Treadmill run today. it wasn't too bad except the fact that I had to stare at the same spot on the floor or i would loose balance and feel like I was gonna fall. I also felt likt i was all over the place. I was going at an alright pace and went faster as I got further along. i finished my workout by doing some arms and some legs along with some more ab workout.

Thirsty Thursday
Thursday 2-23
I forgot to take a picture today, i was in a hurry to get the run over because we were headign to Hayward WI for the American Birkebeiner. It was sunny and mid 20's, great day for a run. I just did my quick 6 mile route that I always do. Tomorrow i will have to run on the treadmill up north, but at least i'm still running! no more side pain which is good, still trying to stretch out my legs. i bought some compression socks and some sleeves and doing weekly yoga, so hopefully that helps!

10 miles today, straight down sprecher 5 and back. I didn't have to work today so I wasn't in a rush, but I still wanted to get out early. Out by 8:30, not too bad. i went out with goal to clear my head and go at a steady pace. I succeeded at both, I zoned out for sure and the miles went by fast. The temp was good about 30 again and sunny. it felt like spring and you wouldn't know it had snowed the day before if you hadn't seen it yourself.

Frosty Tuesday
Tuesday 2-21
yesterday was a rest day, not entirely a rest day but a rest day from running nonetheless. I went to a new yoga place. i have heard good things about the place and have always wanted to try it out, but it is kinda pricey. But...thanks to groupon they had a 10 session deal, so of course I had to get it! The session was a hot yoga class and I needed it. I really liked it and will be going back for sure! i had planned to go to spin class as well Monday night but too many activities with the children.
It was about 30 degrees this morning with some flurries. This was also my only work day this week, so I had to be done with the run by 930. 9 miles with 4 at race pace. I did really well I thought, pretty fast. I felt good and had a bit of side pain at first but it dissipated quickly. i was very tired though as you can see! I wore the colder weather brooks tights, nf sports bra tank, ice breaker base and alo top. bula neck gator, berkeley hat, and castelli band over the hat to keep my ears warm, sometimes the hat rides up.

Bye Bye Black Keys
Sunday 2-19Today was 15 miles, I had to look for a new route for today's run since I haven't done a run like that around here yet. I just ended up extending a route that I already do. i felt good today, the first mile I thought that i was gonna have the worst run ever because my side started to hurt, but i tried to forget about it and it went away. It was mid 30's and not a cloud in the sky. had my fuel belt and two gels just in case. When i got to about an hour 10, i took a gel. i use Rocktane, and GU. this flavor was Cherry Lime, not my favorite.
I like running my long runs on sundays because not many people are out and i get it all to myself.
Wearing rei socks, warmer brooks tights, nf sports bra, long sleeve tech tee, and alo long sleeve outer. hard mountain gloves, nf knit hat and my sweet fuel belt.
New playlist also, and it was so awesome!

Back in Black
Saturday 2-18
so it was about 30ish and sunny. I thought I was supposed to do 6 miles, but it was only 4. i was ok with that since I am doing 15 tomorrow. There was a 7mph wind at the beginning. the route was on sprecher till the 2 mile mark and turn around. Literally when i turned around my side on the left started to hurt. I was very concerned that i pulled a muscle. It did feel good to be on my route though, man i missed it. It was a little hard to get out the door, a little procrastination on my part. Saturdays are Rogers days to work out first, and then me after. Sundays are my days to go first. So I got in my groove to drink coffee and relax.
I wore rei socks, warmer weather brooks tights, red craft base layer, nf black outer layer. nf gloves, black bula, Berkeley hat, and shades.
