It was rough getting started on the run yesterday but it was good once I got going. I'm sore from Monday's run.

Notes to Self:
School track and home
2+ miles
35-40 minute run/walk

I Love stretching!!

Best run yet!

Had the best run yet so far! First of all, I love running in St George, Second of all running around the Temple is a must, Third- running with friends makes for a great run. I had my mom, and my sisters, Cami and Brooklynne along for the ride. The weather was wonderful and I soaked it all up for what it was. On top of everything else, I felt energized. I wanted to run circles around them and keep going and going and going.
I tested out {for the "Friends" fans} Phoebe's theory on running and I'm pretty sure I looked like an idiot doing it (Anyone driving on main street around nine o clock might have witnessed the idiotismness of me-yeah, I just made up that word).
Also, I tried out a new mix of music and it was great inspiration. And then to top off the evening, Cami and I sprinted the last stretch home. Such an awesome run! I didn't want it to end- good sign!!

Notes to Self:
Ran 1.4 miles around Temple down to the Vernon Worthen park and across to Main street and then back to Cami's house.
Running makes me a better volleyball player but is also a rough combination if not careful.

Sunday Walk

Sunday was another day off but not excluding a nice Sunday walk around Diamond Valley. It was beautiful outside and the kids loved the little trip to the park. I love the weather we've been having lately. I can smell Spring coming!

The training continues

I took Friday off but found myself wanting to run all that day. Then Saturday I ran to the mailboxes in Diamond Valley and made excellent time. I'm hoping this continues to get easier. After running half way back I stopped for a breather and then realized my abs and ribs were screaming at me. I love a good, sore run!!
Rick bought some new ear phones and I tested them out for the first time- they're wonderful and a pretty blue color. I didn't even ask Rick to do it- he read my mind and played my game by buying them on clearance. Rick makes me happy. I love him for those of you who didn't already know.

Notes to Self:
Weather was Fantastic!
Run to mailboxes- around 15 minutes
Download some great running music

Day Four

I did some cardio at home thinking that I wouldn't get a chance to run because of my volleyball games on Thursdays, but it turned out I got to play before hand at the church and then walked and jogged a block in town and then played volleyball again that night. I'm just going to assume I made my quota for the day with all included. The funny thing was I felt I had more energy. I probably could've run after my games but it was just so dang cold outside.

Notes to self:
1-2 hour variety
Make myself a warm headband to cover my ears while running.
Volleyball hurts my joints more than running does or maybe it's the two combined.

Day Three

Well day three was another not-so-awesome, Devil's Wind day. But I went out and got a taste of it anyway.... And then I ran back in and finished up my run inside. I let the wind get the best of me this time, but next time I won't.

Note to Self:
School Track- 10 minute Run
Indoor Run and cardio
Get some gloves and new head phones

Day Two

This run was a shorter one, but I convinced my mom to come along with me which made it worth it. It was so windy and on the verge of raining. I was kind of hoping for the rain- I have a lot of good memories running in the rain, but the wind is the devil. I absolutely hate running when it's windy, something I had to push through (no pun intended).


My Notes:
35 second runs/45-54 second walks; 20 minute Run
School Track- windy conditions
note to self- clip toenails when you get home ;)
Don't forget my Protein- thanks Kel :D
