lazy....blogger!

I am a lazy blogger. I think that is the longest I have gone for an update. hmmmmm.

Have had a super crazy busy week.

Starting from the middle of last week:

Wednesday brought a swim in the am. Was a boring swim. No coach and I had to come up with a workout on the spot and I was just bored. Did not get alot of meters in. But had a good visit with a couple of the gals.

Thursday was a run....a short, slow run but I got it in and I am proud of myself for just getting one foot in front of the other and getting it done! Coach Justin says to just keep going until you feel that "click" again and then it will feel like the old days.

Friday was my strength class. More squats and lunges and core work. I am happy to report I can now hold a plank for ONE MINUTE!!! This is a small miracle. And it is the full plank, my friends, no knees on the ground. My arms were shaking horrible and the sweat was dripping off my nose, but I held that sucker for one minute!!

Saturday was a gorgeous day in SaskLand. I told Jenn I would meet her out for a bike ride...maybe. She had 3:40 hours to do...I had...well...just get out there and ride your bike to do!! Matthew and I had been on our bikes for about 2 hours Friday night so my butt was sore. Like really sore. And the little shit has named his bike!! He calls it "Zerks". (???) I have no idea where it comes from but that is the name of his new bike. I broke down and took him to the bike shop and bought him a brand new bike as he just loves biking and I thought what the hell...so he tried them all and settled on a dark blue rocket and has named it Zerks.

I L-O-V-E that!!! We went up and down the hill at the school playground about 100 times...and I impressed all the 7 year olds on the playground that I could peddle to the top...I am SO counting those as hill intervals....

Back to the ride with Jenn....I was out there for a bit and then called her cell and she had about 45 min left so I hustled to meet her and we visited for a bit and I escorted her right to her front door. She had a 2 hour run to do the next day so I bullied her into it....telling her I would meet her any time, any place.

Sunday rolls around and I am out the door at 5:15am to meet Jenn. We had a good run. I enjoyed the day, my legs were a bit fresher than hers and we walked a good chunk of the last half hour, but I was happy, and running and the sun was shining....was a very good morning!!

Monday was a rest day...Tuesday was a short 40 minute run that I floated through...I felt the CLICK!!! I think I may finally have my run legs back...we have made peace and I really, really enjoyed yesterday, even though it was in the pouring rain.

Today was a swim and was a good swim. I have to start getting some serious meters in the pool done as I am going to enter that 5km swim challenge in August. I have made up my mind and now I just have to convince the husband he wants to come and stay with his in-laws and watch the kids while I am at, yet, another, race....hmmmmm. Wish me luck!!
