Day 114 – April 23, 2012
On a cold and rainy day, practice was cancelled, leaving me
to run country roads by myself. . .and loved every minute of the good run!
Total – 6 road miles
Day 115 – April 24, 2012
The practice schedule was a little messed up today when we
needed to borrow a track across town. We enjoyed a 3.5 mile warmup through a
beautiful part of town: tree-lined streets, stately homes, and manicured yards.
After that, I was needed to time both sprinters and distance people. So for me,
it was a short but sweet run.
Total – 3.5 road miles
Day 116 – April 25, 2012
What a wonderful way to start the day: in Horton’s truck and
heading to the mark the Promise Land
course. Fun, good running, beautiful scenery, and contributing to the
ultrarunning community. Good stuff.
Total – 6 trail miles
Day 117 – April 26, 2012
The kids ran hard yesterday at a track meet. So today, it
was Runner’s Choice. I took a group up on the trails at Chandlers
Mountain, where we explored some
trails in the direction opposite what we normally run. Things look a lot
different! But what a great time!
Total – 5 trail miles
Day 118 – April 27, 2012
Off to the woods with my trekking poles in hand. Didn’t even
trip myself once! I think I’m getting the hang of it. Trying to hike/run like I
will be doing this summer for 14 days straight (32-46 miles a day.) I think me
and my poles will become best friends.
Total – 15.5 trail miles
Day 119 – April 28, 2012
Will someone please kick me ext time I have a chance to run
some miles at Promise Land
with sweepers Sophie Speidel and Jennifer Nichols. I knew it wouldn’t be very
long since I needed to go coach at a track meet. But had I run in the morning,
I would not have had to figure out when to run later on when it was cold and
driving rain. Stupid!
Total – 6 road miles
Day 120 – April 29, 2012
Unlike yesterday, it was crystal clear, sun shining, and
about 70 degrees. I decided to put some tunes in my ears and get in some more
miles. I normally don’t listen to music while running but it was perfect for a
couple hours. With a variety of music, it kept me moving, thinking, and
praying. I was very pleased with the pace, feeling strong.
Total – 15.6 miles
Year-to-date – 768 miles
