I should be up to 15 miles this week, which was exactly my plan. I would like to increase my miles by one mile every week until I am up to 20 miles a week again. I have 3 Races on my calendat that I need to start training for.
This will be more of a fun run, as it is at night...and well I hope there is a margarita involved!
Toughest 10K in Texas July
This is a small town race that I ran last year in 45:43 (my PR in a 10K)
I am hoping to set a new record this year
This one is August 12th.....so like the title says it will be hot!! I will be doing the 1/2 in this race.
I am excited to be making some plans to run some longer distance races later this year. My dear dear friend Wilma and I have been talking about maybe meeting up later in the year for a 1/2 and 10K. Maybe this one in October? This would be a fun one, since Wilma is from New Orleans, and Sean and I can make it a mini-vacation :)
My dream race this year, which I won't be able to afford is....
Not only would this be a fun race because it's a Lululemon race and you get some special edition shorts...it's in Canada! Perhaps I can start saving for 2013?
I am on the lookout for perhaps a fall or winter marathon or 1/2....just depends if my body cooperates!
Speaking of body cooperating :(
Cooter is still limping....I got him the wax/cream for his paws which I have been using...he has no cracks...so I don't know what it is at this point. For the first mile of any of our runs he is fine, but after that he is limping. His toenails look a little long, so I am going to go get them cut today or tomorrow, and maybe give him a few days off. I have really been enjoying running with him, and I will be sad if he has to take an early retirement so soon in his runnign career!
Have a good Thursday all!!!
Poor Cooter! Hope he can return to running soon. He's such a sweet dog.
ReplyDeleteI signed up for Lampassas as well! It was dirt cheap - you hardly ever find 10k's for only $20!
Lots of good options for Fall/Winter marathons and half marathons. This will be our 5th year strong at San Antonio in November. We are due for good weather this year!
I would LOVE to run the Lululemon race - I saw that earlier this year and it immediately went on my to do list!!
ReplyDeleteI did the Hottest Half last year and you could not pay me enough to do it again. It's an experience I will be happy to have just once! It's a great race and my boyfriend wants to do it so I may be out there cheering!
You should look into doing the 4 seasons challenge - Big D, Texas Half, Hottest Half and Tyler Rose - I did that and it was a fun way to earn some extra medals!
Here is the link to the Texas Half
