Thank you limewave. I ended being busy during the day and doing a TT on the trainer in the afternoon instead, but I'm going for a run right away this morning and then a recovery ride on the trainer this afternoon.

I think I'll run M, W, F after school, and Sun mornings. It should be enough time for rest that way. Will try to do the trainer on Saturdays and Thursdays and maybe a recovery ride on Sundays.

Ended this week's running with a great 13-something km trail run this morning. One of my running partner (the one who just started running recently) is going away for the holidays Tuesday so it was our last long run together, I took her for a bit more of a ride than she had signed up for, but she was happy she ran the longest she ever had! I enjoyed it too. Whatever leaves were left on the trees are gone after last week's snow and rain, the trails look very different, much "clearer" in a strange way. It was pretty cold out, but as long as we kept moving it was great.

Now where's the food?? I'm hungry.

At the end of last week I realized that I'm 16 miles from 250 miles for the year and I'm determined to get those miles in before year's end. So, I went out today for a rare weekend run. I had a great run! Everything felt good, I increased my distance and ran a great pace.

This week has been a little off since coming home from LV and vacation. It was nice not to be locked into a training schedule .....but I find it is hard to make myself do a long run. I need another goal!! I need another run to sign up for.
Monday DH and myself did a casual hike / walk around Valley of Fire in Nevada. Tuesday was traveling hence no excercise only riding in the car. Wednesday I did core strength DVD (wow did it hurt : ), Thursday back to work, Friday xmas shopping (doesn't that count as something, okay maybe not , Saturday I finally ran 5.6 miles and core strength DVD and today 3.25miles and weights.

I find that when I finish a training plan and the run or bike ride is over, I am a little down and kind of depressed. Does anyone else suffer from post run/ walk depression??
