Loving the Sunshine!

Okay. We're going to get to the nitty gritty early today. But first just let me say how GORGEOUS it is outside right now! I'm in this fabulous, happy, good weather mood. I would love to socially see my friends if they weren't working and sick and not feeling like it. :)

WORKOUT

About one hour

TIME/DISTANCE/COURSE/PACE

I started from my apartment and ran a warm-up to the run location, up the hill, and stretched at the top. I then ran the three-mile loop. The trail was pretty muddy.

WEATHER

BE-U-TIFUL!

FEELINGS & EFFORT LEVEL (1-10, 10=all out):

My niggle was pretty good but I was really low on energy. It was one of those runs where I really felt like running alone and didn't really want to be there at the beginning. I certainly didn't want to be a model for any other runners. Actually, my energy increased by the end of the run. That was nice. Effort level was 5-7, which shouldn't have been because I was running so slow. I attributed this to my lack of energy and to the fact that the first half of the run was slightly uphill, or so it seemed anyway.

DAYS EVENTS

Just working, working, working all day.

SLEEP

7-8 hours.

DIET

OH SO BAD TODAY! This was a brownie and ice cream day. Oh well. I ran.

RESTING HR

I need to figure out how to do this well enough that I trust the outcome.

WEIGHT

Really don't know.

NIGGLES

The classic left calf niggle has morphed into a right calf niggle. Like I said, though, it didn't bother me tonight.

OTHER CONDITIONING

Are there health benefits to putting up with ninth graders? I sure am tired after that!

It was all in all a very pleasant work out. Now I get to rest and feel guilty for not doing schoolwork after I worked a full day. I always have more to do.

OH! Good news! I found out yesterday that I received the 6 free graduate credits that I interviewed for last week. So, I'll be going to school for free this summer! Awww yeah!
