Re: Quad Wednesday

10K for me! An upper body strength session later.

I'm looking like a little tank. Kind of looking forward to getting my lean runner's body back. I'm doing some pretty heavy weights. I think about 3-4 lbs of muscle have been added.

Re: Marathon Recovery Monday

I'm sick too!

Re: Trail running Sunday

Ran the Scotia half this morning. My time of 2:03:50 does not reflect the strength of my run, but it does reflect my drastically reduced training levels. Still, I felt like it was a great race, and very much in line with what I could have expected. I felt great the entire time, and never stopped run...

Re: What is your worst race swag ever?????

I shared an idea with the race organizers....I said how about they adopt the same sort of ting that Spring fling in Toronto does i.e. have some kind of humorous writing on the back on the shirt to do with wine/wineries, and have a small pic of a bottle on the top left hand corner of the shirt.

Re: What is your worst race swag ever?????

Hands down the Niagara Women's half marathon. A bottle of wine, blush, nail clippers and some fake toenails. :). Some other random stuff that I have forgotten as well.

Not ticked off, but kind of a dreary Thursday.

Re: Trail Friday

Yesterday was 10K, and today is probably elliptical and a trainer session. Scotia may be a PW, but I'm so much more overall fit than before.

Strength training is not making me faster!

Re: Racing Sunday

20 K in mugginess. Got it done early though, so suffering was minimal. I'm so slow now though! A 2 hr half is going to be a challenge unless I get some real training in.
