Sounds like a great run, Kimmie. You just need to make sure that those faster miles don't crowd out your easy runs. Who am I kidding, I'm so bad about that. 4 mostly easy miles today. My HR was elevated from my cold but I managed to go mostly easy with my co-worker. One of the other guys at work just finished a 5K in sub-6 pace (18:2?). He's almost 50 but has the most unbelievable speed. I might do my tempo runs as his easy days. He doesn't do much long stuff but is training for a HM.

I ran a mile and I liked it, liked it, liked it.

5 miles today easy peasy pace. Everything felt ok but my right hamstring. Felt like it does after a bad cramp. I have no idea where this is coming from... Bugs, solitary travel would be because someone doesn't want to go with me. If it comes to that, I'm ok with it. Yeah Kimmie on fast running partners! Can definitely shake up your routine a little bit and put some new pep in your runs. Dave, I run with a very fast guy sometimes, his "easy" runs are tempo or faster for me! He sure helped me with my Equinox training this year. Shan, that final time is very good. Congratulations!

Erika, I'm going to send you an email to make you laugh. I don't want to piss off all the men on RA with my rant on men. Big grin

Finished Bathroom:

I lost the before pictures. Sad

But it had red and blue birds everywhere..not so nice. A poopy toast colored shower area and pea-camel-snot colored sink area is much better. Big grin

Tri class final tonight. Swam way faster than I thought i could go for 750 yards. Run was only 2.5 miles, but no pain. So maybe I can start to run again after a month of no running. I missed it. It is 1 am and 59 degrees. Btw riding a bike in wet clothes right after getting out of the pool sucks, just because it feels much colder. Tri clothes dry off fast though.
