| Is it the heat? Is it me? Another terrible run, I thought resting yesterday would fix it. My legs have been feeling like there is lots of lactic acid build up and just heavy lately. It's also a lot harder to breathe! I actually DID end up walking today. At this point, I feel like I should be able to run 3 miles easy.... |

| Such a beautiful easter morning!! I can't believe MSU lost! To tell the truth, I got bored after the first 1/2 and went to read a book. I'm such a bad grad student. |

| Ran with the mid michigan track club tonight. We had thunderstorms and tornado warnings all morning so I was lucky that it cleared up. The workout was 6 x 880 yards with a next to nothing rest (15 to 20 seconds at most for me anyway). My pace group started ever 4:15 minutes. |

| Light rain! I ran at a pretty relaxed pace due to the speed workout last night. |

| I've flaked out the last couple of days and didn't run. Today felt great though! The temperature outside started at 30 degrees and by the end of the run got up to 36. I realized I love wear running tights and it was fun to get back into them. I recently joined a womens soccer leauge and I have a game tomorrow! I'm really excited. Even though it's a lot of running, I guess I log it as cross training? |

| Played about 70 minutes of full field 11 v 11 soccer. Does that count for anything? I'm writing this actually on Monday and I'm SO sore. My back and quads are dead. | | Add Comment |

Ran with the track club again! 3 x 1 mile with half a mile jog in between. We ran this with partners so total rest was however long it took your partner to run! My miles were about 7:30. I think I could have gone faster - I think it's going to take me awhile to get used to this speedwork stuff. Fantastic day though!

| I got home to the apartment to find a matinence worker in my bathroom! All I wanted to do was go for a run but, I had to wait until the water was turned back on because I also really had to go to the bathroom. | |

I got to the race location an hour before the race started. I milled around, entered contests, and listened to the breast cancer stories. I almost started crying on multiple occasions so I started my warm-up. It was also nice to get away from the 7000 walkers/runners.
They had a bag check. For a 5k! So fantastic for lonely runners like me :-D Espcially since it rained when I finsihed.
Maybe I only think this because I was towards the front, but the starting line was fantastic. The starting line was bisected - the left was the competitive side and the right was walkers. Such a great idea.
 Overall Time: 23:32 Splits: 7:25 7:43 8:32
Ooops.
Division place 8 Sex place 37 Overall 182 1315 Finishers - 504 M / 811 F I'm kind of disapointed with my time. I'll just work harder for next time.

| 9 minute miles, 63 degrees with a light wind :-D The craziness of the last week of the semester has resulted in some low mileage. Emotionally I am so drained, but maybe my legs are getting some rest? Yesterday I was at school from 7AM to 10PM. Same goes for tomorrow as well. Oh grad school... | |
