Okay, okay, I totally slacked this week! Monday was a definite no-go, as I was still at about 75% recovered from Sunday's hangover. Tuesday, it was raining. BUT, I did get out to Memorial on Wednesday night! It was fabulous outside, I couldn't have asked for better weather OR a better parking space. Did 4 miles, and I felt great! As previously mentioned, I will slowly increase that daily mileage so I can condition for the half-marathon. October will see many 6 & 7 milers.
Make A Difference 5K is tomorrow morning in The Meadows. The Meadows is a neighborhood right down the street from where I grew up. All proceeds are going to the little church/school in the neighborhood so they can build a new gymnasium and tennis court. It is their 1st 5K, so I doubt a lot of people will be running. Probably a lot of kiddos in the kids' 1K race, though. So, I will be waking up at 5:00 AM, grabbing Lola and heading to my mom's house. She never misses a chance to see her little grandbaby. She's going to go with me to the race, but she's not racing this one. She's gonna play with Lola while I run my butt off to try to place! Haha. I don't think that will happen, but seeing as how there won't be many people in the race to begin with, there is a slight possibility of me placing in my age group. That would be fun! I'm looking forward to the race and I am excited to get out to Memorial tonight for a short/easy run.
And just a note...I was totally planning on going out to the park last night, but ohmigod television. I can't wait until we move and we have our ATT U-Verse, where we can record up to FOUR shows at the same time. Ha! No, I currently do not own/or use a DVR. U-Verse will change that, though! That way, I won't have any excuses to not go do something...like exercise. Yeah, so FlashForward. My new favorite show, it was so good. I hope it does well and they don't end up cancelling it! I love it.
