<p>Morning!  </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Mmmm....not sure?  Might try to head to the beach for some rays and a nice long walk....<img alt="icon_sunny.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/icon_sunny.gif"></p>
<p> </p>
<p>My fitness has sort of sucked lately, so I need to do <em>something.</em>  <img alt="sad2.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/sad2.gif"></p>

<p>Count me in with the slackers.  But that all changes this week as I start training for Tough Mudder and Chicago.  The last 6 weeks I have really allowed my fitness to lapse, so I have some real work ahead of me - especially to get in shape for Tough Mudder which is only 3 weeks away!  Yikes.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I did 6 easy this morning.  Tonight, the boys and I head to the track for some speed work.  I am not doing the Capitol Mile this year for the first year in 6 (because Tough Mudder is the day  before), but both boys are doing it.  I can't wait to see how they do - especially James since he has really improved in the last couple months.</p>

<p>Good to see you back here <strong>Mindi</strong>!  Your pictures from your trip look SO fun!  I want to do that as a family trip soon.</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>Brandy</strong> - which track do you guys workout at?  I'm starting to work out with a group this week or maybe next and I believe our track work is at Chanhassen HS.</p>

<p>Morning all!  Was feeling super wiped out last night after yoga and still this morning so I pushed my run to this evening.  Brought my stuff w/me to the office to do a run commute home.  Sorta hope it rains while I'm out there, could use it to cool down.</p>

<p>Whoa, no posts since my last?   Oh wells.  I ran home from the office, got about 7.35 mi done in total; decent night and not overly hot.  I still sweat like crazy but that's pretty standard.  <img alt="biggrin.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/biggrin.gif"></p>

<p>This thread has been pretty dead the past few weeks.  Where did everyone go?   I went for a 2nd run today for an easy 7.2 miles. </p>

<p>Holy carp that track workout tonight just about killed me.  It is the 3rd session for the group (out of 6), so they are in high intensity mode.  We did a warm-up; strides; drills; then a ladder workout: 1200m; 3 min rest; 1000m; 2.5 min rest; 800 m; 2 min rest; 600 m; 400; 200; 200; 200; 200.  It was seriously kicking my butt and I was a bit concerned about starting with such an intense workout after doing virtually nothing the last 6-8 week.  So I cut the 600 into 400 and skipped the 400.  So I missed 600 meters overall.  Other than that minor bail, I was able to hit all the paces (starting at 7 m/m dropping tp 5:3x m/m).  I am going to be sore tomorrow.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Fingers crossed that this big ramp up in mileage (5-50) plus speedwork doesn't kill me.  :)</p>
<p> </p>
<p>What is everyone training for right now?  Let's list some goals and get remotivated in this joint.</p>
