Today's Goal: Easy Run, 3 miles at 11:24 per mile
Today's Workout: 3 miles in 30 minutes, 10 minutes per mile

I had to hurry today, I slept in and still wanted to get a run in before N left for work.  Basically I had a time crunch and it helped me run faster than I needed too.  This is totally how I work, I love a deadline and I work well under pressure, even when it is self created.  Some call it procrastination, I call it motivation.  I think I might do this more often...

Today's Goal: 4 miles, including 2 miles @ 9:41, cool down
Today's Workout: 4 miles in 41:40 minutes, 503 calories

The details: I ran for 1 mile at 5.5 pace, roughly 11:00 min. mile. Then I ran at 6.5 for another mile, then varied between 5 and 5.5 for 1/2 mile and then another mile at 6.5, Last 1/2 mile was all the way from 7.0 down to 5.0.

I am not running the Salt Lake Half, it is just too dang expensive.  75 dollars, that is a lot of money and I just couldn't justify the cost.  That is what I spend per week on groceries!  Anyway, I am still training as if I were running and I am thinking of doing my own personal half marathon that morning.  If the weather is good, that is my plan.  Anyone out there care to join me?

So, there is another runner in the neighborhood.  She beat me to the treadmill this morning.  Sad.
I also did three sets of 9 pushups, guy pushups.

Today's Goal: Rest or xtrain
Today's Workout:  30 minutes on the elliptical, 3.01 miles

I have been eating tons and tons of carbs lately.  I have stopped tracking my calories on my fitness pal and apparently that gave me a license to eat like a pig all the time.  It's no good.  I am going to do better today.
