One Hundred!

Today I broke 100 miles in my running. I started again in January so it is not the amount of miles that will get me into a marathon today, but it will come October. Today was a hell day meaning that it was speed work. Which the last two weeks as been pyramids, the last time I did speed work (prior to Rachel assigning it weekly since mid-Jan) was in high school! I was a sprinter, once around the track was a killer for me so this 53 minute workout leaves me drained tomorrow. I have spent too much time on my treadmill and plan on my Friday run being outside come hell or high water (don't have to worry about that one as we are having a drought). The treadmill is good for speed workouts but much more than that is cruel! How people can train for marathons solely on treadmills is beyond me, but more power to them.


Next weekend we will be going to Seattle for a medical conference and I am looking forward to getting in some runs while there. Hopefully the weather will cooperate and not be too cold and rainy, then again, I will happily run in the rain!
