Didn't run this a.m.  Running partner was sick.  I didn't have any umph to get out of bed and run by myself.

Swam 10 laps in the evening.  5 of which were the crawl.  Have to learn to swim by July!!!

This morning's run was great.  Well, except for the fact that I got to my running partner's house and realized that I forgot my ears.  I used one of my kids beanies that didn't cover my ears!  Thank goodness it kind of kept my hair over my ears.

Came across a running club.  It was cool to see so many people running.

It was a short run today cuz I just didn't have the strength to run up the big hill, but average mile pace was 8:56!!!  Very happy w/ that.

Hope to get to the gym tonight and swim some more.  Have bball practice tonight, too.  No one usually shows up so it isn't always a good workout.

****

No bball practice. No one had keys to get in the church.  Went swimming.  Swam a total of 22 laps.  10 of which were freestyle/crawl.  Have lots of room for improvement.  Friend invited me to go to a Master's swim class at the rec center next week.  I hope it helps.  Otherwise it will be sidestroke the whole way!

So tired this a.m.  Played vball last night for a couple hours.  Not a good workout, but it was something, I suppose.

 Thought about canceling this a.m. but didn't want to let my running partner down!  Here I am an old woman and peer pressure still gets me to do things!!!

Hope to get in a long run tomorrow before basketball game.

This wasn't a really good run.  Felt yucky, but I was happy w/ our time.  It was about 9:06 AVP, I think.

Today was a good run.  Hope to get a speed workout in tonight along with a swim, but friend wants to me to play vball tonight.  Might do that instead of swimming cuz I am swimming in the morning.

This was really a run/walk exercise.  Went out with a friend who wants to get into running.  She can run for about two minutes before she has to walk.  Kinda exciting to help someone to get srtarted!

 Played two basketballs games this morning.  Do they count as speed workouts?  I was dead tired.

AVG: 9:25. 

Not exceptionally fast, but we talked the whole way.  Had lots to discuss about the weekend.  It felt like a good run.  Should get swimming and basketball in later today.

AVG:  8:51/mile.  It was awesome.  We did temple hill faster than we have in a long time.  Got a new headlamp so we went on the west side of the lake where there isn't much light.  It was fun to walk out on the pier again and enjoy a moment of beauty.

Didn't run this a.m. but went to a Masters Swim class.  It mastered me!!!  Lucky I didn't drown!  It was fun.  Should be a weekly thing....I bought a 10 punch pass so I have to go at least nine more times.  Signed up for Olympic distance Echo triathlon.  Gotta learn to swim before then!

Today was a good run.  Got a little more sleep than usual.  Was tired because of swimming yesterday.

Talked the whole way.  When I have a night like last night, I need to run at least 10 miles to get it out of my system!  I am extremely grateful for a running partner who is an awesome listener and has great feedback.  She is the best!

Rock climbing will be my evening workout!  Gotta stop eating so much!  Then maybe I wouldn't have to workout twice a day!  LOL

Today was an awesome run.  Ran on the west side of daybreak lake.  Avg 8:56!!!  Very happy with that.  Good weather.  33 degrees. 

Went indoor rock climbing date last night.  It was so much fun. My arms were so tired!  Good workout!

Slept in a little.  Thankfully my running partner is patient.  Sent me a text and I hurried and got out there.  Still got in five miles.  AVG:  9:24/mile which is really good considering I talked the entire way.  I had had an eventful weekend.  Needed to vent/share!
