    alright Neighborhood 5K 3.1 mi 00:35 11:26 pace

    It's about time to decide if it's hotter or more humid outside or at the gym! Blech.

      Both are Rock n' Roll half marathons. Hubby did the Philly last year and loved it, and we both did the DC one. I love the band-stages along the race course, and hubby loves the free beer at the end! ;)

    good Gym morning 1 mi 00:13:30 13:30 pace

    A slow mile to warm up, then hit some of the machines. I hate that I get so de-motivated after every race - is that a slump? Stupid slump.
