Busy!

I had a crazy busy weekend, and my regular runs had to unfortunately be put on hold. :( My brother got married (!!) in Marysville at a beautiful beach wedding on Saturday. I headed up there Thursday night and was occupied with wedding tasks and chores and dinners and all kinds of things that did not aid my training efforts! I got back last night around 8pm and went for a 3.3 mile run around 9:30pm. Luckily, my body felt great and it was good to run again.

I went to my first track night last Wednesday where we did some exercises and a workout on the track. We ran about three miles around the track at different levels of intensity (slower and faster paces), and did some stretching and cool-down stuff. The workout was pretty good and something I could definitely do again on my own at the track near my house.

This Saturday is our 7-mile run and we are meeting downtown, running a course the coaches have plotted for us. Should be fun to see some new sights and gain some more mileage!

Also, watch out for me to post a fundraising night in the future. I think I'm going to ask a restaurant in the area to donate a percentage of its proceeds for one evening to my training. If you have any ideas or resources, I am accepting those as well!

Thank you!
