I guess I should stop being lazy and actually post to my blog. I feel like I have been as lazy with my training as I have been with blog posting. For the second straight week, I only ran 3 times. I could make excuses, but I really don't have any. The weather certainly doesn't help. In fact, I tried to run one day this week, but with 30 mph winds, I decided to stay indoors. Lazy.
Ok, so here is my week: Tuesday I ran 4 miles. I think I already posted about that. On Friday I had a great, fun run. The wifey joined me for a 7 mile speed workout at the Lake. And for the first time, she did not totally annoy me (while running). I am extremely proud of her because she has never run that far before and never with mile long speed interval's. We had a great time. And to wrap up my running week, I hoped on the treadmill for 3 miles on Saturday. I am hating the treadmill so much lately. I just want to be out there! I did manage to make it to the gym twice this week for some ab punishment and weight training.
Not too bad, I guess, but certainly not great. I have this ginormous goal of knocking 17 minutes off my half-marathon time and the race is LESS THAN 2 months away. I've got a great training plan that I just put together today that I am going to start tomorrow. Well, it might not be great. It might be crap. I will know after the race.
I flew to Phoenix today; my site is actually in Tucson and this is my first time here. Found a lot of great running spots so I should be set. The weather is phenomenal! High 70's today. It was nice not having to pack any cold weather gear for this short trip.
I guess that's all I have. I leave you with a picture of my wonderful Piper eating an Oreo for the first time in her life. Oh, and there is a good reason why we have Oreo's in the house. I promise.
