Ok so we are totally getting spoiled with the weather down here right now (over 50F when I left) and I am getting spoiled with being able to sleep in and not head out til later. Left again around 8:30. So nice cuz in the summer months sleeping in is not even a option and I would die of heat exhaustion if I attempted to start a run at 8:30 in the summer.

Well today I felt the best I have in a couple of weeks, thank goodness. Did 8 20 sec strides today. whoohooo! I finally through them into my run. Kinda sad it has taken me this long to actually do them since Sasha suggested them clear back in mid november. Had some good paced miles today too, had a 7:03,6:58,7:15, 7:14, and 6:57.

Avg pace was 7:30,  1:30 (realized when I was in the shower that I typed in yesterdays time for todays run so it wasnt 1:16)

Also did Abs, free weight, squats, lunges, dips, and pushups as well.

Have a great weekend, my husband is going with his buddies today so I am going SHOPPING!!!!!

Great job!! Have fun shopping!! I am hoping to stay inside today. No liver cleanse - I could not find any ornithine. I will have to keep on looking.

Great job on your strides! Sounds like you had a really good workout. You're always good about getting in some cross-training too. I bet your core is in pretty good shape! Send your heat wave up our way, eh?
