What Doesn't Kill You Makes You Stronger!


I survived my long run this weekend. I headed out Saturday morning and completed 12 miles. I couldn't do the last mile because it was SO cold. Around mile 10/11 I had to walk a little to because I was pretty sure my legs had turned into icicles and were going to snap. I did 12 miles in about 2 hours and 10 minutes.
I just received an email from my dad reporting the temperature was supposed to be a little warmer (40's) this week. I'm so thankful.


I want to give a BIG CONGRATULATIONS to fellow teammate Kayte for finishing the Disney Half Marathon in the unusual Florida weather (sleeting and 30 degrees! Toto I don't think we're in Florida anymore!)

This weekend I have three 4 mile runs and closing the week with a 14 miler. I will also be concentrating on weight training more the next month and a half. My knee was bothering me after my 12 miles so I really need to focus on the surrounding muscles!


7 weeks till GO TIME!!!!
