8k of this is my race today, and the other mile is my jog from the car to the race start. It was far enough that I'm logging it, darn it!

Race day today!

Short trainer spin to loosen up the quads a bit after BodyPump.

BodyPump

Dumb, dumb, dumb. The squat and lunge tracks were the really hard ones today and my legs were rubber at the end of the class. Not very bright on the day before a running race.

March 16

500m WU

10 x 100m

I couldn't keep track of all the splits, but I know the last one was 1:37.

100 CD

So, no workout last night. Again. Argh!

I was a good wife, though, and didn't say a word while at the bar (where I knew about two people, and couldn't relate to a single story they were telling during the 4 hours we were there, and had to sit next to a woman with the most obnoxious laugh in history), but I kept thinking to myself, "ok, if we leave soon, I can make it to the Y for a good run," and then "ok, if we leave right now, I could still squeeze in a short run," followed by "is 10:00 too late to run outside now that the Y is closed?" and finally, "ok, forget it." It was nice that the husband could catch up with all his old college pals for a while and celebrate the life of their friend. I only met her once about 2 years ago, but she was very nice. She would have been 43 yesterday.

Planning on a swim and run today.

March 15

Today is going to be another challenge completely crappy (from a food and exercise standpoint). A good friend of my husband's died of breast cancer in November. Today is her birthday and there's a gathering in her honor tonight at her favorite restaurant. I hope that we'll get home in time for me to run tonight, but maybe not. I should have gotten up this morning and ran before work, but that would have required planning ahead. :-/
