Check In: Week 13

Down 2.5 pounds this week. Happy about that. Rest day on Monday after Sunday’s race–tried to run but ended up walking. Great class Tuesday, chased with a solid training run on Wednesday. Felt good yesterday so I tried to run again but ended up walking a bit and heading home. Taking a class tonight and resting tomorrow. Great Race 10k on Sunday. Can’t. Wait. I haven’t done the Great Race for a couple years, and this is Andy’s first Great Race ever.

Still feeling renewed energy in my efforts. I signed up for the Fly By 5k at the airport next weekend, to be chased by a long run on Sunday. I need to get my long runs back in action, but I think taking a couple week break was good for me. Really hoping I can PR the 5k on Saturday–I was close last time, though 30 seconds can be an eternity in running.

I can’t wait to see what I can do on Sunday. And looking forward to the Expo and packet pickup on Saturday. Husband is in the mood to buy more running stuff, which I will never turn down.

Short and sweet this Friday. I’m sure I’ll have much more to say on Monday. Happy Weekend!
