Sunday's run
Ran 5 miles from Cavitt this afternoon. legs were alittle tired from yesterday but felt pretty good. Looking foward to a rest day tomorrow :)
11-29-09 Day 21 Fun in the Sun - Shannon
So I haven't posted in a few days for various reasons, no real good reasons, except life getting in the way - no biggie though, right?
Fri - Day 19 - rest day. Traveled up to see my MIL and to get our X-Mas tree from the Downieville Lions. It rained all the way up, but blessed us on the way back by being dry. Had a great day, although I found Friday, being at MIL's the hardest day being wheat-free yet. Her home is the comfort food home, with all sorts of yummy stuff all over the place. But, I stayed strong and true, although it was REALLY hard!
Sat - Day 20 - Long run with the FTR's and my buddy, Pam. Pam was feeling strong on Saturday, and I had a hard time keeping up with her. We did a little over 7 miles running from Karen's bakery out and back. It was a good run. Windy but gorgeous! Spent the rest of the day working on bears, and I got to spend some time with my youngest, Skyla. That was really nice.
Today I headed out to run the Brown's Ravine trail from Sophia Pkwy to the Marina and back. Hubby, Mark, went with me and fished the lake while I ran the trail for 4.67 miles. I can say that the detoxing from going wheat-free has officially set in and the marina outhouse never looked so good before :). Today's run felt really good and I enjoyed it tremendously! The weather was perfect and it was just peaceful. Reason #5 why I like trail running - free therapy!
Not sure what tomorrow brings yet until hear back from Diane. Maybe rest or maybe 2 miles. I'll let you know tomorrow.
Stay dirty!

Fabulous Sat run
Had a great 7 mile run today with Shannon and the FTRs. Felt great and tried to keep a slightly faster pace. My goal is to slowly get my speed up to about 10:30 - 10:45 min mile over the next few months of training so I can make the time cutoff at WTC! Came home and did core and some stretching. Tomorrow will be a 5 miler from Cavitt. My body is starting to like running more often; I definitely feel stronger.
