11 miles

10 by myself on the JRP right before the kids got home, AP 8:09. Not sure what my deal was, but this felt quite a bit harder than I expected. Just no zip in my legs (and I was even wearing new shoes). The zip better come back before Saturday!

1 mile with Rylee, Sophia, Oliver and Livvy (Payton did not want to come). We started out together but then Oliver slowed down a bit while the girls took off like bandits. We saw the girls at the turnaround, Sophers asked me to run with her so she could have a more accurate idea of her pace (since I was the only one with a watch). She ran an 8:45 pace with me, but she was slowing down at this time. I'm guessing she averaged about an 8:35 or so.

Side note:

Spring break can't come soon enough! Does anyone know how to construct truth tables for digital circuits and/or construct an AND gate using only NAND gates? How in the heck is this physics??? It is NOT in my physics text, yet is on my lab homework that is due tomorrow. I asked my Physics Teacher Assistant and he said he didn't know how to do them and has no idea why our lab is requiring us to. So lame!!!! Anyone? Help!!! * A special thanks to Fonz for helping me! Luckily, he is very patient!!!

7.6 easy miles, AP 9:03, to my parents and back. Legs felt a bit heavy and I just felt plain blah. Wonder if it has anything to do with the huge lunch I had and the 1/2 pound of plain M&Ms.

Not happy, not sad, not thrilled, not mad, just kind of ...ish. :)

I have not run a 10K since the D-News 10K in 2009. It showed. I never could find my rhythm and at times pushed too hard and at other times didn't push hard enough. Although this is my 10K PR I am not satisfied and hence will have to run another one at some time. Hands down the funnest part of this race was running back to get Ry and then run with him to his finish. He told me in the beginning that he was not going to race it but just enjoy himself. It was so nice having him there with me. :)

Absolutely wonderful fun day which included running extra miles with Rachel, 9 holes of golf with Ry and then dinner with Brooke, James, Matt, KristyAnn, and Ry.:)

**Thanks Rachel for being my rabbit (couldn't catch you though), Matt for the piece of humble pie and Brooke for being so dang cute and cool! You all did AWESOME!!!
