1. The trees are filled with blossoms that scent the air near them.
It is heavenly. I hope the blossoms linger. I enjoy all the green but the added color is so nice. I enter a local photography contest each year maybe this year I will get some new macros of the different blossoms to submit and win the category!
2. Little Bug-man and I went for our evening run tonight. 6.5 miles (52:55) I had planned to do a split 10 miles tonight since the weather is to get unfavorable but my legs said the first loop was enough and I didn't argue since I already have 40 miles this week.
The Skyline Challenge
Trail 50k Ultra-Marathon
"Your Pain Is Our Pleasure!"
Saturday July 10, 2010
3. I have finally settled on setting my next "big" race goal. The Skyline Challenge. This race is in Virginia, any local-yokels who might be up to experincing it with me, drop me a line. Or anyone with experince on this course please let me know!
I am excited to have something to look forward to. Now if hubbs can just work out being able to support me during this race. His big-boy job has a crazy schedule.
4. Hubbs finally went back to the doctor because a year after knee surgery he is still having serious pain. His doctor took an X-ray and did an MRI. The doctor is fairly certain additional surgery is required to further clean up the medial meniscus that was torn and to remove a screw that is now unnecessary and may be causing some of the discomfort. I have been praying that hubbs is able to return to running and biking. Although, hubbs is not a lover of big distance, I have missed sharing training runs with him since his injury. Hopefully whatever is required will be easily recoved from and end his pain.
5. I have a 5k on tap April 24th for my April race. Since this goal is very "if-y" due to various life issue right now, I haven't offically mentioned it here but I am hopeful to run a race (of any distance) at least once a month this year. So I was very excited when I found out that Woodman of the World is hosting a Relay for Life running event locally! Score!
A race for April, maybe a 5k PR and a good cause.
That's my 5 for Friday. What's yours?
3 Changes Challenge
April 15th - Thursday
1. h2o/non-caffeinated - 70oz - Success
2. Destress - Post run I spent some time while the kiddos played in the bubble tub doing yoga and I prayed this morning before getting out of bed and will spend time in prayer again tonight before I drift off to sleep, which will be soon!! - Success
3. Xtrain - I did walking lunges and squats after my run while walking to see the baby goats with little bug-man, s'getti, my niece and nephew. Still not what I want out of this goal so I will HAVE to get it in this weekend to make my 2 days goal! - needs improvement
