Hola!
Apologies for the lack of blogging. My schedule has been crazy, but I have been keeping up with miles :)
This past week I have been without a computer, which was horrible. I took it in for a minor repair and they kept it all week. So I have been in the office at the HPER typing away each night. As I was typing one night I realized how much I needed to get up and move around... SO.... I decided after I finished a section I would run a mile on the track. One night I did 7.5 miles. Yes, it is a bit crazy, but you have to do what you have to do!
I am really thankful for Evan running with me. I have been a grump when getting out there. Now I see where I need improvements... my attitude :) Thanks for putting up with me on the long runs! Also I have started to challenge myself. I set a time, set a distance, and GO. It hasn't been a tremendous push, but I still feel it.
Onto the next subject... I think I need new shoes. Looking at my miles for a month of running and than multiplying it by 10... uffda, I am in need of shoes. The soles don't look bad, but I want to prevent any injuries. Maybe I'm too cautious... anyways, I am looking at minimalist shoes. Runningonthewhiteline.com has an article on what shoes to get. During sophomore year I bought a pair and they were simply amazing. I remember how hard it was for my feet to adjust, but once they did I vowed never to turn back.. unfortunately I could never find another pair I liked and settled for the typical running shoes. Nike is the brand I probably will switch back to.... now to budget them in :)
Great job everyone!!! I'm proud of each of you and continue telling everyone about how awesome my friends are and their willingness to endure five months of craziness. Love ya all!!
Remember, if you think you are too busy... it is just an excuse :)
