You Can Do It!

Started off pretty good. My hip wasn't feeling to bad.  However by the time I got to the end of the workout my hip was beginning to hurt, and I was just plain exhausted. I ended up walking about 85% of the workout.

I'm not really sure how far I ran today.  For my class we ran a 1/2 mile warm up, then some other warm up exercises.  We then jogged from the HPER field to the ticket office at the stadium. There at the stadium we did hill intervals. I don't know how long the hill was or how many times I went back up it. Then we jogged back to the HPER field. I was pretty beat by the time class was over.

Felt good for most of my run.  By the end I was starting to feel it. When I was 2 miles away from being done I ran into a friend and we chatted for awhile. Those last two miles were difficult just because I had stopped for so long my body figured it was done.

I felt really good today.  I think my hip is on the mend. Yay. I love feeling my body getting stronger.

Today was tough. I felt like I had no energy. Of course that could be that I only got 4 and 1/2 hours of sleep last night. Oh-well, I pushed though it and finished the run.

I'm not exactly sure how far I actually ran today.  In my fitness class I did a half mile warm-up, then jogged from the field house to Old Main. We gathered at some trees that were close to the bottom of Old Main and ran up to some other trees that were about 50 meters higher on the hill. I ran 7 circuits. In between each circuit we did different strength exercises. (push-ups, skip and  scoop, down-ups, mountain climbers, hip lifts, and reverse crunches.) I had to walk some of the circuits.  Once we were done with the circuits we jogged back to the field house.  Needless to say, I was pretty beat by the time we were done.  

I really should start taking the Garmin to school so I can keep track of exactly how far I run.

Did a half mile warm-up. Then ran from the Field House to the sidewalk between the spectrum and the HPER field, up to the cemtery, around the cemetery, and back to the Field House. I felt pretty good today, and really enjoyed the run.

I had Matt drop me off at Dry Lake. I ran from there to Mantua where I took a pit stop. Then I ran from Mantua back to our house.  That was about 11 miles. I still had an hour left to run, and just ran around town.  I ended up walking most of the last mile, by that time my legs were pretty dead. I'm going to have to plan very carefully if I'm going to survive the marathon.
