Catching Up

Hard to believe that so many weeks have gone by without an update. Coming out of the holiday season, I was doing great with training and feeling strong, especially with my running. I even started some indoor rides on my bike and then I got SICK. Man was I a mess for about 10 days. The past week or so has been really good however, with a mix of indoor and outdoor activity. Everything from running outside with my new shoes - the NEWTON's (first run was in Palm Spring, actually Rancho Mirage... just a few miles to get used to the feel). I ran with them again last Monday (MLK day) outside in TGP, but work has been crazy busy and the temperatures dropped dramatically.

SO (the "um" of St. Louis)... I got a good 9 miles in on the treadmill on Thursday and am hoping to get back outside tomorrow. I've had a few good indoor trainer rides over the past week 1 hour 25 minutes last Monday and 1 hour 40 minutes Friday; maybe I'll take Isaac outside tomorrow!

Swimming hasn't been too shabby either, with a 40 minute workout at the JCC on Tuesday or Wednesday and another 45 minutes swim Saturday at the Richmond Heights Recreation Center. Mama and I got to play with Isaac before I started to do my laps, but unfortunately the video camera fogged up and we didn't get any footage to post.

Training has been going great... now I just need to get the fundraising going. GO, GO, GO!
