Last week was a bit of a mess due to a VACATION of a LIFE TIME.
I'm now not very happy with where I live. I just want to quit everything and move to Maui, but then I'd be poor, fat and sad. At least I can be finacially secure, fat and sad while in NYC. hmph.
After returning from Maui, I did some illegal runs to put in some mileage and an attempt to lose some jiggles. It worked, but now I have to keep it up.
And the training is ON. Toronto will be here before I know it, and I want to be lighter and faster.
Monday (6/3): 7M on treadmill. The heat wave from the last two days did not help with already jet lagged sleep. I'm just sorely missing a solid, out-cold, kind of sleep.
Tuesday (6/4): Faster Finish Week 1. I'm now told that this series would be the last with Terry. So sad...! But we have 9 more happy weeks with him left! Week 1 was the now golden standard, Lower Loop Progressive Run. I SUCK at this. I jump from 7:53 to 7:34 the second lap, making it near impossible to get any faster towrads the end. http://connect.garmin.com/activity/323112164
In between Tuesday and Wednesday, I have mini-personal crisis, where I hate everything about my life. It's almost a Three Days Grace song, but it's not "you" that I hate. I blame it on midlife crisis and hormones.
Wednesday (6/5): We finally have nice weather, which results in me not paying attention and I end up going down Harlem Hill instead of turning East on 102nd Drive. I do an extra 1 Mile than scheduled, but it sure did feel good and much needed stress reliever. http://connect.garmin.com/activity/323688476
Thursday (6/6): It's an off day, but I manage to do a slow jog to go get my bib for the OAKLEY Mini 10K. I feel like I have to say the "O" word now. Amazing what a little PR can do...
Friday (6/7): I get my period. Yuck. But I'm secretly proud of this shake up run. 1 min on, 2 min off, times 10 for a 30 min run. http://connect.garmin.com/activity/324340947 I mean, we're talking SUB SEVEN paces.
Saturday (6/8): OAKLEY Mini 10K. Not much to report, but I go off tangent, losing some precious time. Overall distance ends up being 6.33 (WTF) but pace is good at 7:22. In fact this is really good pace for me. Just need to learn to run faster or run the tangent... http://connect.garmin.com/activity/324835631
Sunday (6/9): Easy 8miler. http://connect.garmin.com/activity/324835643
I'm now officially done with the FUN part of my training, according to coach. "Fun's Over." he says. I'm scared.
