I haven't been updating the blog for a while. I have been running but I did not have a plan. I was running aimlessly.
Yesterday I signed up for the Mo Cowbell Half Marathon. Now I have a goal. I have a plan. I have something to blog about. I downloaded a plan from the Mo Cowbell Website. I am going to use it with some modifications. It is a 12 week plan. It is only 6 weeks until the race. I feel I have enough miles on my legs to jump into the plan midway.
Yesterday I ran the I Love Forest Park 5K with Jen and Willow. We took turns pushing the stroller. My plan was to stay with Jen and Willow. It is amazing how enjoyable a 5K is when you aren't trying to kill yourself by running as fast as you can. It was my first race pushing a stroller. You have to remember to not get close to the person in front of you so you don't run them over. I am proud to say I didn't run anyone over. After the race we watched the kids race. It is always so much fun to watch kids run. A girl came in first. After that I had to love on Willow.
When I got home I went to the trail and ran 6 slow, hot, miserable miles. By then the heat index was 100. I don't know what I was thinking. Jim considered going with me for a few minutes then decided not to.
Tonight I went to the trail and ran another 6 slow, hot, miserable miles. I have a meeting tomorrow night so I wanted to get some miles in tonight.
