I ran last night (instead of the morning) as the sun was setting on the beach and it was absolutely gorgeous.
It was awesome, the beach breeze was blowing in my face as I was running giving me a wonderful breath of salty air…I felt like I could run forever!!!
I ran about 31:00 minutes and would say at least 3 miles…my best run to date.
I can’t wait to go tonight

The beach I ran on!!!!
Well, I got so busy I forgot to chat here about my beach run!!!
I ran 2 miles yesterday on the beach…it was loverly and I enjoyed it quite a bit
2 things though…there was a lot of people running and it was hard not to try to keep pace with them…(my competitive nature)…and, me being a turtle doesn’t help…lol
secondly, I didn’t think about the cosatal breeze that blows…wow I ran with it at my back for the first mile, but then turned around and ran into it for the other mile….(and it kicked my butt)
anyway it was beautiful and I loved it…I will run again tonight (07/10/08)
peace and blessings

Ran 2 miles today in about 21:10…it felt pretty good. It was quite toasty today (93 degrees)
it had only been in the high 70’s for all of my other runs….but, it felt good and I like the heat and the sweat.
guess I’m weird like that!!!
My God keep us and protect us!!
We are traveling down to St.Petersburg tomorrow. So my next run will be on the beach….woot!!!!!
I will probably not run on Tuesday…but, lookout Wdenesday morning!!!

Well… I ran 1 1/2 miles tonight in 15:10….it was a fast pace (for me that is!!!) and my body was telling me to stop there instead of 2 miles….oh well
I am not sure I will go for 2 next week or stick to 1 1/2 ???
We will see…I have plenty of time to train.

Happy 4th everyone
remember freedom isn’t free!!! Thanks to all the men and women serving in our armed forces today on this beautiful day!!!
Well as you can see, I failed to run on Wednesday and Thursday ( I wanted too… but got too busy).
So, I ran today…and my body scorned me for it…I felt sluggish at first (if you saw me run…you would agree). But, as I was running I felt better, breathing was tight at first but, better as time went on.
I warmed up considerably (more than my last few times) and it helped. I had in the back of my mind to run 2 miles, but as I slogged thru the first mile I thought “no way”. After the first mile my tempo picked up and I went for it, and got my 2 miles….I was happy (long way from 26.2).
I didn’t bring my watch (which may have been for the better)…but, I would guess it was around 21:00?
Anyway, enjoy the 4th and don’t lose a digit to some rogue firecracker.
God’s blessings
