Speed!!! As painful as it was.....it actually felt good to get this done!!  We ran down to the HS Track and home.  Took a warm up lap out, speed lap to track, then did speed with .5 mile jogs, then home.  AP: 7:52 (this included our walks, jogs, etc)

Set out for 11 miles but got in the middle of our little snow storm so we cut it early.  I think Santa Clause and the Easter Bunny have their Holiday's mixed up this year!!! This is serious crazy weather (3 inches of snow and it was 70 degrees yesterday)!

Happy Easter Saturday!!!  We woke up and the Easter Bunny had come (we celebrate Easter on Saturday) so we celebrated, had us a nice breakfast and waited for the sun to come all the way up before I even thought about running.  Left my house about 9:45 and headed out a different direction then I usually do.  I had a rough first couple of miles but then kicked it in and felt great!!!  I was really surprised to see my AP. Felt good today:)~ 

AP: 7:34

Nice little tempo run this morning:).  We ran an entirely differnt route then we normally do and it was quite nice:).  Started with 1.5 warm up (8:36, 8:17) then ran 3 miles tempo (7:37, 7:31, 7:34.......shooting for 7:40 or less), with 1.5 mile cool down (8:23, 8:01....up a small steady hill).  Put our average at 8:01 overall.  I felt pretty good today and am hoping that these tempo runs payoff come race day, whenever that might be!

Oh what a glorious morning............oh what a glorious day:) (a little tune entwined there).  It's been a rough week in the Shepherd home with sick kids, crazy schedules and sleepless nights.  So, I haven't been feeling well either (way sore throat, etc) and as of yesterday thought I wouldn't even be running today. I was ever so pleased to wake up this morning feeling SO MUCH Better!!!  So, I was glad I could get out and run long with Heidi C. while she worked on her last 20 miler before Ogden.  I was only able to do 15 with her but felt really good which makes me excited about things.  Of course I am attributing it completely and totally to the weather!!  I love me some chill in the air and complete cloud coverage :).  Nice!!!

FUN FUN FUN Race this morning with 50+ amazing women from my neighborhood and my sweet sis!!! I have a good friend who organized this for all of us fully equip with matching shirts, bandanas, knee high socks and a personal bus (quite fancy actually) to escort us all to the start line! It was such a fun experience and an amazing memory~ This course was pretty downhill so I appreciated the PR as well!!!  Makes me realize all the more reason I love running.  Heidi C and I ran out a few extra times to get a little more distance in.  Put me at 5.25 total.  The race itself was 3.2.  It was a great morning!!
