home for T-day

Thursday, November 27th, 2008

i’m home for thanksgiving and that usually means logging a ton of miles on gravel with lotsa hills.

not with this stupid knee injury it doesn’t.

5 miles today on gravel.  no hills. definitely wore the spandex getup. i’m sure that started some sort of rumor around town (maybe i’m pregnant now? nope, sorry folks, that’s just all the baked goods i’ve been making and eating).  I’ll be anxious to hear.

i totally forgot i thought about doing that turkey trot tomorrow in DBQ, and I really shouldn’t run tomorrow cuz that’s 3 days in a row and 2 days in a row is currently pushing it. hallooooow elliptical machine in the basement and a video of slipknot live (cuz really, i honestly don’t have any other live dvds).

OOOH i almost forgot. today’s run pushed me over my goal of 5x runs in under 9:34/mi. way to go, chica. pat on the back. srsly. last month I didn’t think I could hit a 9:00 mile, and now I’m running nearly 8 minute miles. rockin.
