Ran 10 miles again on the treadmill at the hotel gym, then some ab work. Running on the TM is not something I would like to make a regular habit. I just didnt want to be running down the strip!But good thing was that I ended up not having to pay for either days to use the fitness center because the pool was under construction so they gave free access to the FC. My right hamstring and calf were a little tight to start, had to stop and stretch a few times but they got loosened up quickly, however now my calf is not feeling the greatest right now. I will work on it with ice, the stick and stretching tonight. Started out with a 8 min mile and then ran the next 8 mi at a 7:30 and then finished the last mile at a 6:30 pace. Got registered for hobblecreek!Got a cute new running outfit, a new pair of tennie shoes for work (yeah!) and my favorite purchase of all was a garlic press! I have wanted one for awhile but just never bought one even though they are pretty cheap but I finally got one so no more trying mince garlic with knife. Oh I almost forgot I did stop at Trader Joes on the way home and stocked me up on dried pineapple, my favorite treat! Glad to be home now and excited to run outdoors tomorrow.

Sounds like fun...where did you stay? Thanks for the encouragement! I'm a little overwhelmed, but I should survive! Will we see you at Region this week? Ruthie should be very fun to watch.
