I ran a LOT yesterday!

OK -well a lot for me might not be as much as 'a lot' for you. BUT, I ran about 40% of the time from Janet Trainor's house down Boyd, across Wilson, down Alderney, along Highway 2 (if you can imagine - I hope to God no one I know saw me as I'm sure it wasn't pretty) and all the way to Curly's. And then I somehow made it home. The 'attempting running' portion of my route is 1.76km. So if I ran the 40% that I think I ran, that would be about 0.70km. Doesn't sound like much, but it was a very intense workout for me, because I only was out for about 35 minutes, so that was a lot of running in between my 5-7 minute warmup and my 5-7 minute cooldown.

And did you know it was 30 degrees yesterday??? I found out the hard way, as I was sweating my butt off along that road trip. I forgot my sunglasses and didn't have any water. I think I might need a water bottle belt thingy. That would make it all better, if I'm going to keep this up when it gets warm.

Let me just say that mornings aren't easy. I guess I've got to either go out this evening or force my sorry self out of bed tomorrow morning. The being out on the loop isn't bad, it's the getting to the door that seems to be difficult.

I've had a suggestion to organize a group 5km event for my first official 5km and all my friends who would also like to do 5km (whether running, walking, biking, pushing the stroller, etc). I'm thinking about it. Are you free on October 1st?
