7 miles upright bike

1/2 mile swim

Core and hip strengthening exercises at work.

*************

Other than the parking ticket I got (who knew you couldn't park w/in 5 feet of a driveway?) it has been a great day!

The day started out with a full out upright bike race with Fonz. Okay ... so I lost (even w/Fonz having already ran his stinkin' fast miles and him being at a much higher resistance than me) BUT ... I hit an upright bike PR (7 miles on random level 2) in 19:27. It must have been quite the sight as I was dripping buckets of sweat and Fonz was just jammin' out to his tunes w/out a care in the world. Oh well ... I came closer than I thought I would -- I am so going to kick his trash next time! :)

THEN ... I made it to school on time (usually I am running about 5 minutes late).

THEN ... I got my O. Chem test back (which I thought for sure I had bombed) and got an A (miracle of miracles -- thanks for the prayer, SSF).

SO ... I am very happy!!!

(Have a quiz in Anatomy tomorrow ... better hit the books.)

11.5 miles

Okay ... this was the plan: run three 5Ks - 1 @ marathon pace, 1 @ threshold pace, and 1 @ VO2 max pace with one minute rest between each one. I am so glad this is over -- that last 5K just about did me in.

1 warmup mile

5K @ 8:00 pace

5K @ 7:30 pace

5K @ 7:04 pace

(I was reallly trying to push it to a sub 7 pace on my last 5K but absolutely could not do it. Stink! I'll blame it on Fonz since he pushed me on the bike yesterday. But truthfully, I don't know that I could have gone even 1 second faster had he not. I hit the puke feeling halfway through and had to slow down a bit before picking it up again.)

1.2 miles cooldown

I'm exhausted! :)

3 recovery miles - AP: 9:12 - wanted to run more but was freaked out about my Physics test and thought I should cram for a bit before school. The test ended up being WAY easy though. Sweet!

20 wonderful miles with my SSF (AP: 9:20)

Smooth and I had a GREAT run! Got started a little late so after running our first 8 miles uphill we arrived at Payton's game with only 5 minutes left! He didn't seem to mind since they were getting smoked!!! 5 minutes was the perfect amount of time to have a little drink and eat the oranges Ry brought for us. Out we went and ran 8 miles down and then 4 relatively flat miles on the parkway with a hill at mile 19.

During the second half of our run, after leaving a chaotic message for Rhett (we were wondering how his marathon went) we began to salute places that reminded us of our friends and loved ones. For example: our first salute went to Kelli as we passed a Kneaders! Then to JohnnyV as we passed a fire station. Other salutes included ones to Fonz each time we saw a church (how do you like that Fonz?), a salute to Fly when passing large amounts of rocks, to Montelepsy and Vinh when we would pass the U.S. flag, Mark O when passing 24 hour fitness, Larry when passing an A&W, Ry when passing a golf course,  Lowell when we saw any flourescent colors and on and on and on (there were many more).

Lastly, I have to add just how amazing Smooth is! She truly is the most wonderful woman ever. It was funny, when we finished and were having our muscle milks at my house we were telling Ry about our salutes. I said, "Guess what we were passing when we were giving you a salute?" He said, "Ummmm ... Bikini Cuts???" (laughing, of course). Smooth looked perplexed. She had NEVER heard of the place! Like I have said many times before, she is so so so good!!! :) I just love her.

Happy Day!
