Just checkin in.

It seems to have been two weeks since my last post. Today is Friday the 13th and I have survived. Isn't that what you are supposed to do on this day?
Last week I ran 3 on Tues. 5 on Thurs. and 7 on Sat.
This week I have run 3 on Mon. w/ a bike ride 5 on Wed and I plan to run 8 on Sat. This will be the furthest I have run since last May. I am excited but scared all in the same breath. I know I just have to stay confident. This weekend is going to be crazy.

Plus happy Valentines day.

Later.

End of my first week

Well the first week of training has come to an end. My workout goes like this.
Monday 3.5 miles speed work
Friday 5 miles at the y
Sunday 5 miles at the frostbite 5 and 1 additional for a total of 6 miles.

This is a pretty good week.

The frostbite five was really sloshy. Half the race we were in 1 inch slush. The times were slower but it was a different kind of race. Isn't that why you run outside in a race like that?
