Wow my legs, I mean my whole body is sore today. Even my ribcage hurts. I got up out of bed and kinda stumbled around and wondered if I would be able to run. I went out and we did an easy 9 and it actually felt pretty good to get the legs moving. Any downhill at all I could really feel (alot). I can't believe I am this sore. I have not gotten this sore for a long long time.  I am going to try to keep my miles up this week, and get a few extra in on turkey day so I can feel a little better about having that extra piece of pie!!(and all the other goodies too:)

8 mi loop with nat and cheri, nice easy pace but put some umph into it for the last mile (6:08). Legs finally starting to feel semi-back to normal ... temp dipped below 40 today which was not entirely prepared for, could have used an extra top layer. (I know all you northerner's are laughing but Im baby when it comes to the cold, especially since Im a native of sunny SG.)

Going to try to make it to the gym this afternoon  to get some weights in since Im only working a half day today (Yeahhhh), it will be nice to have 4 1/2 day break from scraping teeth:)  Tomorrow we are planning on our 4th annual 17 mi loop for Thanksgiving so anyone thats is in SG,  your more than welcome to join us.

Ran the SC loop with Cheri, down snow canyon parkway, up through the park and then down the marathon course. It was a slow, painful run. I think I was a little dehydrated and neither Cheri or I was feeling that great. Im just glad we got the miles in and got it done. A few times we discussed turning around and cutting it short but we didnt and kept going and finished stronger then when we started. Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

Went out  for 1 hr 15 min walk after turkey dinner. Dont  know if I should count these towards slow miles. not sure on the distance.

K what can I say, I ran with Ruth today and she is an incredible runner. She took me on on killer trail run which was probably a piece of cake for her but worked me pretty good. Our avg pace was a 7:55 but there was some tough miles on soft sand and some hills. So Im counting 4 miles as fast cuz I dont feel like they were all slow and definetley not easy! I had alot of fun running with her and hope she will let me join her again! Now I off to with the in-laws to do some shopping.

Also did abs and free weights upper body.

Slept in and just went on run with me and my ipod. Right hamstring was a little tight, has felt that way starting out my runs and then it warms up. Avg pace 7:35. Was planning on throwing in some strides but with my hamstring tight I was a little nervous so just kept it at a comfortable pace.
