    What - I'm starting? June 25 - July 2

    I went running twice today.

    first with my office mate at lunch, maybe 25 minutes. Not so hard.

    I saw a PT this afternoon for my hip. That's why I went running at lunch - he said he might look at me on the treadmill so I wanted to be a bit tired and maybe my form would slack off.
    He suggested some exercises but did not tell me I had to stop running.

    Off to my Wednesdays group run I was! 10K with two big hills.

    Now I am knackered.

    Best thing is I met an old friend from school. We both agreed that neither of us would have expected me to be part of a 10 K group.
    It's a little secret you didn't know about us women. We're all closet Visigoths.

    Another week already??

    So far, I'm at about 6 miles for the week, which I ran yesterday. It must have been a little less than 6 miles, it only took me 45 minutes. I knew I was pushing, but I don't know if I was pushing 7:30 mile hard. I could see 8:00 mile hard, though. (Honestly, it still amazes me that I can even run an 8:00 mile at all, let alone breaking into 7:30s...)

    Today, kickboxing, tomorrow I'll be riding (and swimming or running), and some more variety for the rest of the week/weekend. I have a sprint tri on July 15th, about 2.5 weeks from now. Still debating whether I'll wear my wetsuit (have to practice sprint-fast transitions with the wetsuit), but at least I'll be able to walk to the start.

    Nothing like pressing "pay now" to motivate you...

    I got up this morning at 5 am, yes that is correct, and ran 3.78 (I love my forerunner!). Felt so good to go. Beautiful day. Ran around the lake where all the float planes land.

    Though the pup wasn't quite sure what was going on. After we were done I got the look of " what just happened? Aren't I still suppose to be sleeping?" I was giving her the same look actually.

    I did an easy 30 mins this morning, I am still recovering from my race last Sunday. I even left the watch at home, and just ran easy.

    First run of the week (finally!).
    I did a 3.5 mile trail run. I'm tired.
