Am I Supposed to be Training? HA!

Ok, Ok, so I have slacked (big time) since my week in C'bus and I won't use illness as an excuse (although I still don't understand why - when you hardly eat for 4 days - you don't lose weight?). My 1st road race of the season is quickly approaching (5miler on 3/13) and I hope to get in 5-6 good 1-hour cardios between now and then, starting tonight. I'm tired as hell (over-scheduled myself again)...but no excuses! Let's go girls!

Ugh

Heellloooo!
It's been a very long couple of weeks so we have not been doing our training. We have been keeping up with our green smoothies though. Our plan is to start again tomorrow. Honest!
Thanks fir keeping the blog active Karen!

Anyone out there?

Wow, either everybody is REALLY busy, or nobody is working out. Is the weather really that bad out there? Just kidding. Hope you guys are staying motivated and not feeling like you need to start over from the beginning.

I made it to the pool yesterday and got my run in this evening. I am very thankful I only have to do 2.5 miles this weekend. It will feel nice after 6 last week.

Hope everyone is well.

Where are all the updates?

Not that I should be saying anything since it has been a few days since I last updated. I did manage to get my 6 miles in on Sunday, although I had to do it in two separate runs. I am not sure if that defeated the purpose of trying to run 6 miles straight, but it was the only way that I could get it in with what turned out to be a crazy Sunday, just like Saturday was.

Monday morning, I made it to the pool. Tuesday, I completed my 30 minute run. This morning and a friend and I went to a Zumba class. It was a great cardio workout. Think we might try to do that once a week. That should be a nice break between the swimming and running. Not to mention the biking, as soon as I am able to find time to add that back to my training schedule.

Hope everyone is doing well this week. I am looking forward to hearing all the updates.

Heading into the Weekend

I was able to start my day off with a morning swim. It felt great while I was there, but throughout the morning the good workout feeling has faded away. I am not sure my arm even wants to be lifted today. Thank goodness tomorrow is a day off, although Sunday is supposed to be a six-mile day. I will keep you posted.

Way overdue...

Been off the computer the last few days. A quick update... Got up really early for a swim on Monday. That felt pretty good. Didn't get much of a workout on Tuesday because the boys were home from school. Wednesday had physical therapy and had a good workout on my shoulder. Today I did manage to get my 30 minutes in, but I wouldn't exactly consider it a fast pace. Had a phone call, so I just slowed it down a bit so I could talk at the same time. Better than nothing, right? Tomorrow, I am planning on getting another morning swim and this weekend, a BIG 6 miles. Ugh... Might be doing that while the Olympics are on. Hope everyone else is doing well in their training.

I really have to blog...

Yesterday neither of us did anything that would be considered working towards our goal. At least today we had a smoothie. Actually, now that I think about it we had a smoothie yesterday.

I will be heading to West Virginia to inspect a lab tomorrow night. We're actually staying at Mountaineer casino. I'm hoping to workout while I'm there. I would hope I'd have better luck than Leslie at the hotel! Could it be much worse? :)

Hope to get back in ger over the weekend.
