Okay, I know I have been a slacker and not a good blogging friend. But I am trying to be better, I have to hurry I need to get to my classroom.

.5 mile jog until my watch started

1.0 in 11:06 then second mile in 9:33 how's that for smokin'? Then .38 slow back to house. talk to you all later :)

Okay, I got in 18+ flights of stairs today hauling all my books to my classroom on the third floor. And guess what? I have a skeleton in my closet!!! A real, life, from a human skeleton. It's got to be really old but it is in really good shape. Not that I need one in my room but hey, it's really cool.

 

Oh side note, anybody want to pick up my packet for me? I can't make it down in time for Friday pickup and I am camping at the start line, so I don't want to drive to the finish to pick up my packet to drive back to the start.  I would get it from on Friday night so you wouldn't have to worry......please?

Started at a 12:30 pace to warm up and then continued to knock it up about every .5 miles. (Treadmill, I let chris have the outside today since I got it yesterday) Finished with under a 10m/m pace but it wasn't for very long. 

Total time 46:22

My goal for hobble creek this weekend is 2:2something.  I did 2:50 in Ogden and I know I am going to smash that time.

Okay I now have 28 minutes to get ready for school, I got to move it move it, I got to move it move it I like to MOVE IT!!!

 OH, just repeating myself, can anyone pick up my packet for me in on Friday, I would get it from you later that evening? Thanks!!!

Wow what a beautiful day.  I had a great time and I got to meet Marion, Kim, Josee, Kelly.  Lots of shade, it wasn't hot, I felt great.  Goal was 2:2?.  So I did it.

mile 1 10:40

mile 2 10:33

mile 3 10:25

mile 4 10:20

mile 5 10:56 I was loosing satellite reception in the canyon during this mile and there is about .10 mile extra in this time.

mile 6  11:14 still loosing satellite here and this is about another .10 extra.

mile 7 14:28 line for the potty, and I didn't want to go in the woods because I knew I wouldn't be able to squat and I just needed to sit down to take care of business because I didn't know how long it would take.

mile 8 10:40

mile 9 11:06

mile 10 11:40 there were some extra hills plus I was slow at the water stop.

 mile 11 11:13 now this is just fatigue slowness but not too bad.

mile 12 11:29

mile 13(.92) Remember I lost reception and my mileage is shorter that it really was. 11:15

I couldn't see the seconds on my watch, I need to changed that, because you know I would have worked it to get the 2:24, especially since I was sooooooo close.  I feel great I loved it.
