Early morning run on me Birthday:) Great way to start out my day! Unfortunetly when I got up it was yucky weather: foggy and slightly rainny. When I started my run the rain did stop so that was nice! Ran at ARSHS on the track. 12 laps=3 miles. The 8th lap I did a sprint; very difficult for me again. Also last mile was also very tough. Time: 25:50 min. Hoping to get my "surprise" bday gift today, which is an awesome running watch! |

| Goregous run at Game Farm!!! I had the afternoon off so I was able to run during day light. Weather was perfect temp, of 55 degrees (perfect for running). The sun was popping out here and there. It just put me in a good mood to run and soak up the weather! Ran 3 full laps (including on dirt trail). I think it was a little over 4 miles. Can't wait to use my new garmin forerunner soon! Time: about 35 min. |

Light run to Hemlock Rd. Usual route/loop near my home. I was very sore from yesturdays run so I took an easy jog this morning. Nice day even though cloudy but NO RAIN! Ran about 10 p.m. Time: 21:41 min. Short run but really felt a work out because legs are sore and just kinda sluggish in the leg area. My heart and rest of me could have ran much further but legs told me I was done so I listened. |

| ARSHS. Tried out new Garmin Forerunner. Don't know too much about how to use it yet but still learning. Basically found out that I've been running slightly over 3 miles on track becuase my start and stop place is the same; didn't think about the different lanes on track. Distance: 3:27 miles. Used heart rate monitor. Heart before: 74 HR after 3 mile run: 157. Time: 26:57 min. I felt it was kinda hard running today but like new garmin. |

Look forward to a nice run with my friends tomorrow. |

Game Farm Park. Weather started out scary with rain and cloudy; then when I got there it cleared up very nicely! Had perfect weather for a nice longer run! No rain in legs:) Left stomach side ache from big Valentines breakfast at Sunbreak Cafe. A struggle to keep running but pushed. Ran full loops like I normally do with dirt trail. It was fun to see the actual distance of my loops I was just guessing the distance. I love my Garmin Forerunner!!!

Awesome run at Game Farm Park. Time: 5:50 p.m. Ran with Nicole and Lisa there. Lisa just ran 1 mile though and was feeling fatigued, totally understandable! The weather was perfect! Clear skies, starting to get dark but not too bad. About 50 degrees. Felt good most of the way but felt some phlem in throat (gross). I did get a rash under my R arm. I need to remember the vasoline.

Mile times: 9:15, 9:16, 9:04, 8:51, 8:43, 8:40
I loved how the mile times got better each time. Prob. helped running with Nicole to keep me on pace:) |

Roegner Park. Nice sunny day. Beautiful sunshine. Lots of people running, walking, and walking their dogs. Put me in such a good mood. Felt pretty good. Was a little tired from staying up until 1:00 a.m. and eating sweets before bed time. But overall good.

ARSHS. VERY COLD!!!! Where were my running gloves when I needed them? I bet it was atleast 32 degrees. I had to scrape frost off of my car in the morning. Frost on grassy area in middle of track. Felt crazy to be out in this temp. It took about 2 miles to feel un numb. Hands cold whole time. Played around with my garmin training mode.
Start time: 6:20 a.m. Time: 25: 33 min Cal: 281
Mile pace: 7:56, 8:54, 8:41, 8:23
2nd mile was experimenting with training mode so slowed way down. First lap started out way too quick. Hard run, felt cold and uncomfortable almost whole time. Wanted to be done. |

ARSHS. Time: 5:40 a.m. Felt great this a.m. as I ran my regular 3 miles. I just felt enthused this morning, I liked that feeling. I did a speed work out. Hard to sprint the 8th lap, but did it; slowed down a lot after that on next lap. Finding out that I had been running slightly further than I needed to. Garmin helps a lot. Happy NO RAIN!!!
Time: 23:41 min (shocking to see how fast I ran this a.m.!?? was that me this a.m.?)

Riverview Community Church. Ran with Nicole and Lisa. Good day for running. Cloudy, but no rain, some clear skies further away. Temp was decent. Felt a little slow today. Didn't feel up to doing longer distance run; too bad, would have loved to accompany Nicole. Lisa did very good under the circumstances of changes in health. You go! No pain in legs. We ran at 5:00 p.m. We had to make one stop at Lisa's to use the restroom.
