BEAUTIFUL morning, especially considering the weather we have been having.  I even got to bed early last night (10:30) so once I was up, I felt refreshed and ready to run!!!  We ran "New Leaf" this morning.  When I started running I felt a little sluggish, I think from not running for 3 days.  But, we pushed through and when we got done, Oh, how lovely I felt!!  

Avg. Pace: 8:37

Then we jump roaped afterwards for a few minutes.  I did a total of 180 "jumps" (3 sets of 50 with the last set getting 80) and whew, it kicked my butt!! We are going to start trying to jump rope more often to try and "jump" up the cardio a bit!!  It was a fun morning!!

WOWIE!!!  A new, fun, hard workout this morning with the Heidis.  It was Tyler's day to run so the gals were gracious enough to agree to do strength training with me at my house.  Heidi has Jillian Michael's 30 day shred movie ( I thought of you Britta) so we did level 3 and HOLY SMOKES!!!  Seriously, it was amazing how good of a work out we got in just 30 short minutes!!!! We were all dying!!  But, it was so fun and new and kept us hopping.  Then we went outside and jump roped for another 10 minutes or so.  Up until about 3 hours ago (it is now 7:00pm) my body was still shaking from it!!  We are going to run in the morning so I look forward to that and then plan to do the Shred again on Thursday, Shnikies!!!

Woke up with sore abs this morning, HOORAY!! I think the last time my abs were sore was about 2 years ago after giving birth to my son and the last time they were sore due to a work out was...........Um Never.  REALLY, I Love it!! It is nice to know that the area my body suffering most these days (due to my sugar intake I am sure of it) is the area that got a significant work out yesterday, THANK YOU JILLIAN!!!  

But, onto today.  Met up with the Heidi's today for the New Leaf route!! What a beautiful morning and almost warm enough to start running in shorts (this takes time for me Tyler), can I get another HOORAY!!!  We followed up our run with some more Jump roping.  A total of 200 jumps plus some "jump rope running" (is what I am going to call it) down the road and back. It really gets your heart rate up.  Our goal is to be able to run (jump rope run) the entire distance of our street here soon!! We will see how that goes!! What a wonderful way to start my day, HOORAY!!

Shredded again this morning with Heidi W and Jillian :)  We did level 2 today and Holy Smokes, it was hard.  It is so fun to do an all over body work out, get my heart rate up, sweat, strengthen and stretch all in about 30 minutes.  Wowie!!  Then we cooled down a little bit with a different home video working our butts (am I allowed to say that on the blog?) a bit and biceps.  We were going to jump rope but ran out of time so........darn it!!  Look forward to running tomorrow (solo :( and then a long run Saturday!!

Flew the 5 mile square solo today!!  It was a very pretty morning and I actually enjoyed the run even though I was by myself.  It gave me some good time to think about things and prepare for my busy day!!

Met up with Heidi W this morning at 7:00 for a long run.  WOW, what a pretty morning!!  We left our houses ran down canal road to Woodland Hills Drive cut back over to the highway, across and around the Krishna temple to the ball park and back home!!  It was a very fun run this morning with Heidi and I felt it was challenging at parts and then easy running in other parts!! The Sun was very intense this morning which was the first time I have felt it like that this year, so it brought on the heat and the endurance!!  It was a great morning and a great way to get my Saturday off to a good start!! The last mile was a gradual incline so that lap slowed our overall pace down a bit but I am still very happy with the outcome!

Avg. Pace 8:19
