<p>Bi/Tri/Core done so far.  I still need thigh/butt work, though.  Meh. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>I didn't get my run in last night, waiting on one of the contractors to come and put that blue-tarp stuff over the exposed parts of the roof.  They left at 7:45 and I just didn't care by that point.  Ahh well.  I've missed a few runs in the last 2.5 weeks with the excitement (/sarcasm off) in my life.  What's one more run? :)</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Anyone racing this weekend?</p>

<p>I didn't run last night either.   This morning was a short TM run, little miss evil, and a bike ride after.   12 on tap for tomorrow.  Gulp.</p>

<p><strong>Amy -</strong> good luck on 12 tomorrow!!</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>Racing?</strong>  Me! Me!  I am doing a 10K tomorrow on my friend's "Cancer Sucks" team for the ACS.  The whole fam damily is doing it and I expect it to be lots of fun!  <strong>Lora</strong> is also doing the Bridges Run (not sure of the accurate name) in Florida too.  Anyone else?  I have a friend doing the Paris Marathon.  How great does that sound?!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I slept in this morning because I decided to make rest a priority.  This is my last "big" week and I am hoping to race a 10K, yet make it through the week unharmed.  I will probably do 5-6 easy tonight, but I may skip it altogether if my legs are tight.</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>Tim</strong> - thanks so much for your encouragement.  I will take them with me on race day.  Hopefully after our great virtual training seasons, we will both simultanously virtually kick some butt out there on May 1!! :)</p>

<p><strong>Cindi - YAY MEG!</strong>  That is a really great time!  She HAD to have done some good pacing to be at 7.  Good for her!  And glad to hear you  had a little unplanned RFTL time!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>What else?  Yay - it's Friday!!</p>

<p>Good morning all!  I ended up taking a rest day yesterday after all, not entirely by choice as work stuff really heated up and I needed to be available for most of the evening and into the late night for some testing.  At any rate, I'm up for some miles today before I head back out to the Midwest.   Back to STL to run the STL Marathon Relay with my siblings on Sunday, wooohoooo!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Good luck <strong>Mindi</strong> & <strong>Lora</strong>!!!!</p>

<p>This morning I had an hour long ride on the stationary bike.  Tomorrow I increase the distance to 4.5 miles in preparation for the upcoming 10k. That will be my longest run in over 2 years.  I am hoping for a great run and a total turn around from last Saturday.  I've set alarm already for tomorrow morning so that I am up and running before it gets hot.  hehe</p>

<p>I ran 2.5ish last night (longer than I thought!)  Very slow, and there was a little walking and some stopping (ostensibly to let Penny sniff around, but really?  I was beat.)</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Felt great to get out there, I have to admit.  My legs are very sore today. :)</p>

<p>Whew, finally got out for a run.  6 miles and an attempt at tempo pace for the first time in way too long!  2 mi warm-up, 2 @tempo (8:05, 7:36), 2 cool-down.  That's about normal for me and tempo pace w/out my Garmin or a track ...first mile is always slow, the second compensates.  Normally by mi 3 is where I find the sweet spot.  Oh wells, better than nothing.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Off to St. Louis!</p>

<p>When I stood up to leave work my back said HEY! Pffththt. It's not happy this evening, and I have no idea why. I haven't done anything to make it mad. I think I need to scale back a bit again after GC, PFFFFTHTHTHTHT.</p>
