Spring is here

My Hot Cocoa rose has a bloom.

Grandview Loop

51:52 after not doing anything for 2 weeks and still have the congestion and cough. I don't think that's all that bad.

This was the second time we tried to have the group eat breakfast at the pub. Never again. The service was bad again and the food took way too long. I didn't time it, but I'm pretty sure it was over an hour to get the food. What is wrong with them. I guess they offer breakfast but aren't really set up to have people really eat there. I'm so disappointed with that since I think breakfast is really the only good food they have there.

Just to let you know....

You may see some changes in my blog. I've always, or mainly, keep this blog as a workout blog. Or that has been the focus. But I might start to add the personal stuff in it, too. More of a life blog rather than for only one specific reason.

Why? For several reasons. First I'm already keeping 3 blogs. All for specific reasons. I'll keep those reasons, but this is the blog that my friends read and maybe I'll let them know what I'm doing in the other parts of my life. I've started to do this with FB too.

Another is something KC wrote on hers. Do by example right? Oh wait, I commented that I have several blogs for just that reason.

I got to thinking that my friends can see what else I'm doing rather than just trying to hit a certain mile time or how many times I ran up the goat hill.

Dear Death Wish-
I can't blame this on you since I think this was the handiwork of Boo's litte squirrel friend.



BUT
I can blame this on you.

4 x 1mile repeats

9:07
9:20
9:35
9:24

I could have sworn my times were 9:07-9:12-9:22
I know it didn't take that long to hit my lap button so I guess I was just WAY off. I was trying to keep my mile time around 9:00. I have some work to do in order to hit that goal.

From Kerstings to First Water -38:35 up

Speed work?

Last night was the NEW Rouge running workouts. POSE

Here's my results

5 minute run (2 laps + just over 1/4 way around)

6 minute run (2 laps + 3/4 around)

7 minute run (3 laps) = 9:20 pace I think.

Firecracker 10K

1:01:55

PRd but would have like it if it were the same course. Yes I PRd but the course was "easier" this time since it didn't have that same long LONG last uphill. Oh well. I PRd and I'll take it.
