Rough run

Tonight my run was a little rough. It wasn't to hot and it wasn't to long, I was just kind of tired. I also made chicken, rice, and bell peppers for dinner. Which is DELICIOUS... but not the best running fuel for some reason.. the rice just kind of acts like a brick in my tummy.

I have a 4.5 mile easy run on the schedule tomorrow and a nice 5 miler for Thursday. I ordered a new running skirt which should be in on Thursday. I am excited to give it a try. I think I am going to run the Redmond puget powerline trail. Maybe I will toss in a run in bridal trails this weekend too. Not Sure, but hopefully the roughness of today is ended for the rest of the week. I really want to maintain a 20 mile per week run schedule.

Wish me luck.

A week in a nut shell

Last week I run 17.3 miles. My goal was 20, but I ended up skipping a planned day. This week I expect to hit that goal and hope to maintain 20 miles a week as my base.

Yesterday the hubby and I went up to the north bend outlet store. Popped into the nike store and found the cutest running jacket. Although it is still to hot to wear this jacket, living in Seattle, the weather will start to go downhill in a hurry in a month or so.

Tomorrow, Wednesday, and Thursday I am planning a 5 mile run. Wish me luck!
