slow comeback

i'm baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack from traveling! unfortunately i didn't run. at all. and it doesn't help that i didn't run for awhile before leaving, either.

BUT i'm trying to ease back in to running :-) today I did 1.5 miles, walked 2 miles, finished another 1.5 miles. I have no doubt i will be sore tomorrow despite taking it easy, but a girls gotta start somewhere right?

very proud of you, jess! now if only i could motivate myself to stick to a schedule...

life as i know it

welcome home ko!

im happy to report that ive been really, really good for the past 2 weeks since we began our "official training." ive done the exact amount the book has told me to do, including swimming on my cross training day. I ROCK.

now the bad news...

today is the beginning of week 3 and i cannot motivate myself to run for an hour. i might die instead. i had a meet this morning and dont know that i have the energy for this. problem is I HAVE TO DO IT...

FML. guess we'll see if i do this. its only 430pm and i really cant even bother trying to run for another hour or so b/c its too hot...

HerrrrooOOoo??

HIIIII Genie KO!!!

I just wanted to inform you that TODAY, sunday, july 5, is the OFFICIAL first day of 1/2 marathon training according to my book. it is the first day of week 1 of hardcore training.

W A-H O O

let the games begin.

schedule

my schedule for the week:

monday: practice 9-11am, camp 11-2, practice 315-4, practice 5-730
tuesday: practice 7-9, practice 9-11, camp 11-2, practice 5-730
wednesday: practice 8-9, practice 9-11, camp 11-2, swim meet
thursday: repeat of wednesday

now, when do i fit time in to run? cause god knows if i wait until after practice at 730, i wont get home until 8pm and out running until 815... and that just wont happen.

the answer... i dont run. its bad.

i only had time for 3 miles on monday AM and i swam a mile yesterday. the rest of my week isnt looking too great either. booooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
