January 8th

5k run (3.1 miles)
@ 40 minutes
Lower Body Weights

Today was the no cheater day. Usually when I run, I stop after one mile, stretch, drink and then get going again after about three/four mins. Basically giving my body a chance to recover. Well, today I didn't do that. I ran straight through with no breaks. I didn't do any pace training or anything other than simple endurance running. I am pretty proud of myself today. I ignored every thought to stop, slow down, cheat on my lap numbers, or do anything that would keep me from the days goal of finishing three miles in one stretch. Curse my dream! This girl is going to finish that race!

  1. When I was running a lot (on the treadmill at Gold's on 800 N. in Orem), I'd pop in a "Friend's" DVD and watch 2 entire episodes, then I knew I was done. Coincidentally, that was just over 40 minutes. And it is tough - GREAT WORK!!!!
