Who'd of thought that a 'cut back' week would be an 11 mile run????? Crazy in my book!!
With all the 'festivities' everyone participated in Friday and Saturday, the girls and I held off our run until Sunday morning... And we needed a nice long run after all that 'fun'... hee hee!!
Met Kathy, Patti, Kathy, and Carol (another halfwit) at FitClub West about 7:30 a.m. for 6.3 miles exactly!.. thanks to the USATF route maker and my handy Garmin!! I started at 6:40 and did 4.7 miles exactly.. again thanks to the USATF site... (sometimes it's a little off, depending on precise you are in making your route, but this time I hit it right on the nose...)
My 4.7 miles was good, a couple of big hills coming out of the subdivision onto Koke Mill and then going up Koke Mill but other than that it was pretty flat. Felt a little weighted down w/ 3 full bottles of Accelerade, a Gu, and my cell phone, but I managed.. The run was good, nothing out of the ordinary or anything like that.. EXCEPT that I'm half way through training!! YEAH!!! 9 weeks down, 9 more to go!
Got back right on time to meet everyone for 6.3 miles.. They are starting their half marathon training next week so as their mileage increases, I'll be able to run longer with them! Another Yeah!! They are definitely ready for an increase too...
As we were coming up to Golf Rd., Carol called her husband and asked him to bring water and Gatorade down and set it out on the corner.. When we got down Golf a few blocks, here he comes w/ the goods!! What service!!
Got the 'cutback' week of 11 miles done and not looking forward to 17 next week!
