| | TT45:52 AP 9:07 9:31 9:19 8:56 9:18 8:31 I may of just had the greatest run of my life. Yes!! I was squinting at the bright, BRIGHT sun and blue sky enjoying the fresh air, thinking this beats running in the cold, dark, rain in February any day!! But, funny thing is that, in order to enjoy the runs in the summer when its so beautiful out you need to do the runs when its miserable out in the fall and winter. I ran all 5 miles in the VFF's and I feel pretty good. Plus, I had the best AP I've had all year which is encouraging. I was getting sad because my splits are so slow compared to last year. But there is hope. Needless to say I think it's going to be a GREAT day! Here we go Thursday, here we go, CLAP, CLAP! Plus this weekend is the Keizer Iris Festival 1/2 Marathon and Justin AND Nicole will be here! Yay! Double Rainbow! | |

Keizer Iris Festival 1/2 Marathon (12.94 Miles) 01:51:23, Place overall: 65, Place in age division: 7 | | Did not plan to run this pace! After not feeling as "in shape"as I was last year at this time and after drinking/eating pizza the night before I thought a PR was out of the question! But thanks to Nicole 'the machine' Ralston Greene, we rocked it. Once again she pushed me just the right amount! And I'm glad I was able to get a PR, even though the course was a little short, which is annoying. I'm always amazed with Nicole's running skills! After being injured she is able to push me to do what I think I'm not capable of! I'm also proud of Jordan and Justin for running the 10K! Jordan ran an 7:37 mile which is ridonculous. I liked the course because it was pretty flat, just one hellacious hill. It was the worst because you could see it from far away, so you tired and you are just staring at this, what seemed to be a 90 degree angled hill. Luckily it wasnt that long. The waste plant was smelling and not nice to breath in while running. The weather held out and it wasnt bad, no rain. :) We had a great weekend with the Greene's and cant wait to do it again soon!

| | Worst run ever! I think I drank like 8 oz of water yesterday and so I felt very dehydrated. Pretty much walked the last 2 miles. Not a good week of running- next week I will be getting back to it! On another note, I made the cutest cupcakes ever!! They look like a garden and I cant wait to do them again. Also made poker cupcakes- they didnt turn out quite like I thought they would but they are okay, next time I will do them better with fondant. Now, so excited for weekend at the beach birthday extravaganza with the Greenes! :) | |
