Tae-box Tuesday
Re: Tae-box Tuesday
Volunteered in my 5 year old's class today for Scientists in the Classroom. Fortunately I didn't blow anything up. Then I managed a mid-day 5K run in a new subivision, to take away from the usual country roads monotony. House is conditionally sold. I can't wait to move and actually have neighbours, and be able to run in new scenery.

Voted--Hannah is at 67! Taking another day off running, to make sure the back isn't going to throw a tantrum. Had my flu shot today, and my arm is sore already. Beautiful weather here today!

5.3km done in a little under half an hour (no Garmin), first run with new-to-me BOB stroller. LOVE the thing!! 
A wonderfully balmy evening, but the pitch-dark by 5:15pm was kind of disconcerting.

Re: Tae-box Tuesday
9.08K done - beautiful weather, but sad to see the sun set so early. Much like Pinky, I left here at 4:15pm, by the time I strolled up the driveway at 5:00pm it was pitch black. Going to have to start taking the headlamps for Piko and I - I do not want to be rolling the ankle or stumbling across any critters

Speedwork: 5x1M threshold (6:01, 6:00, 5:59, 5:59, 5:56) with 390m jog recoveries + WU/CD for 14K. Also started to break in the shoes I might be racing in next month.

Re: Tae-box Tuesday
Last night, I managed 5km in 25:25 on the treadmill. Not sure if I have leg speed today...

Re: Tae-box Tuesday
30 minutes on the TM this afternoon, speed intervals (well sorta). It's been along time since I've gone for an afternoon run, it felt great.
Oh and I guess I better work on my training plan.

Re: Tae-box Tuesday
After a day off yesterday, it was a gym session tonight with light cardio and upper body weight workout. After focusing on training for 2 half marathons recently it felt GREAT to do weights! But I feel so weak! In many ways I miss my days as a baker when every day was an 8-hour strength workout

Re: Tae-box Tuesday
Quick catch up:
Friday/Saturday - rest.
Sunday - 18k lsd that was super hilly and tough.
Monday - ended up being rest
Today - "6k" tempo (5.75 actual). Slower than I'd like, but I've been fighting heartburn since Sundays run.
