I wanted to do more but I was at the oval.  I had gone into the bathroom and a woman was able to open the door even though it was locked.  I was mortified and wasn't going to continue running on the track and having to see her every lap.

Didn't have a lot of time so decided to do a practice 5k run.  Finished in 32:45 my best time in the last 5 years.  Think I might PR fairly soon :)

I went up to syracuse to run with my sis in law.  My longest for the last year and a half was 13 miles.  I did 17.7 with her and she did a few more to make 20.  It was a nice run and I was very happy that I was fast enough to not make it completely drag out and I was slow enough to make her slow her pace down 1 to 2 minutes a miles so that she can do the distance.  She tends to out too fast.  She laughed during the run saying she had never had so consistent in her pace.  Now THAT is something I am good at.  We kept every mile at about 12:10-12:30 even with hills except for the water stop miles, and the one mile where it dropped into the 11's.  Not bad, not bad.

1 hr spin class this morning, the a full day at school followed by water gun fight in the halls and 3.25 at an 1130 avg pace to finish off the night.  Pretty full day. 

 

Tomorrow we are going to try the muscle buster class then walk the 4 miles round trip to the library to pick up the latest in fantasy/romance we are ready.  When I say we I mean my friend Mary and I, chris isn't into reading romance with me.

Felt like a fumbling fool at zumba this morning but at least I was sweating.  Annoyed as all get out because I sooooo have not been over eating. Not even eating my weekly or exercise points and I have increased the amount of time working out everyday and I have gained a pound. What gives?

Yippe. I ran well and I am less than one minute from an all time PR.  Usually I get close to a PR at the end of summer, not this year it is coming down!

My 3rd mile was my fastest by 30 seconds. I think I paced it fairly well and was sufficiently spent by the end :)

An hour at spin class. After my blood donation on Saturday I had to drop it down just a notch but got a sufficient cardio workout.  My exertion level was the same, a good hard push, but the level of work it took me to get there was less.

I weighed myself today and I am down 40 lbs. Not too shabby, just have 40-60 more to go.
