Supposed to be five but the Bob's out of alignment, I'm out of shape, and the boy woke up, so I called it.

Great to see you enjoyed this one Wendy. Trails can be so restorative. I love them.

Nick is so excited by this-- I've been really nagging at him for trail running and he's been so meh, but he loved this. I can't wait to get him to go trail running on a wooded trail-- this run was all on exposed low scrubby mountainside, and sort of a zigzaggy maze. It would have looked funny from the air, I'm sure. In fact, I think I'll sync the garmin just to see it.

good Fairchild Health Fair Fun Run 5 mi
This was supposed to be warmup, 2x1600 w/800 jog, cooldown. But that went out the window pretty early on, I just didn't have it in me and didn't care. :)
I pushed the boy and I need to check the ... read more-
Way to go Wendy! You'll get back to your old self real soon with these stroller runs. Those were always so hard for me, which is why I think I only did them a couple times.

Nutrition...It's an afterthought until about mile 2...been there done that! But blackberries sound way better than Hammer Gel. Sounds like you have a great running weekend planned!!!

The worst thing was, I knew it was a mistake when I was doing it--but the idea of staying up by myself to cook a steak seemed really silly. But next time that's exactly what I'll do, I'm paying for it today. Blech.

Wow! That would be tough. You are one strong woman - think I would have given up and ended up in the corner bawling. Amazing 3 miles! And yes, you are awesome. My Garmin does things like that, too.

Ha, it would have been easier to stay home but I really wanted my 3 easy miles and knew I'd be pissed off and resentful all day if I skipped it. (right or wrong, that's how it goes) And I knew he'd nap in the bob if we could just get out the damn door and up to speed. Oh well, hopefully that was just a rare especially bad day. Stupid teeth.

Failed at the tempo run, bigtime. It was supposed to be 1 mile easy warmup, 3 miles @ 9:38 and 1 mile easy cooldown. Ended up 10:05, 9:57, 10:02. Not even close, whoops. I've got lots of excuse... read more

Um, I think those speeds were pretty kickass to run while pushing the boy on hills. And snicker, snicker about Marisa and her hills. Now I want to smack some hills around and make 'em my b---h.

Great job Wendy!!! It's about making our goals. I am with you, I love the sun and heat EXCEPT when I am running... Nice to have the kids at the races....Ah, the elusive blue greyhoud...they are so beautiful:) I have met some great friends at races and with FB have been able to keep in touch!

Yep, baby steps in running. My #1 goal is no injuries so I can keep it up and get faster and faster and faster-- that lady's 18:30 (2 months pp, just wow) is my 2years pp goal. ;)
I have a FB friend I met in a race too. :) I've got to say, for all the drawbacks of technology, I really love the ease of social networking, I am terrible at staying in touch otherwise.5 months ago • Like
