Hectic Week

OK, been a very, very busy week and it’s just getting worse but I wanted to do a quick update and will try to do more over the weekend. I took Monday off of running because it was cold (not as cold as Sunday but I just didn’t want to get out in it after a day at work, I did cross train with the elliptical and strength at lunch that day). Tuesday I ran 7 of the 9 on my plan and I didn’t get the LT (Lactate Threshhold) run in that I wanted to. Mainly because we got snow again that day and it was slick out yet again. I was going to use a track (indoors) but this week is hell at work and a number of things that need to get done and I got out of the office late so didn’t have a chance to use indoors…oh well. I managed 45 on the elliptical that day at lunch along with the 7. Yesterday I did 4 at lunch instead of my strength (I had to work at B&N last night so I would’ve had no more time to run after work) and was going to get up early this morning and do strength instead and yeah, umm, that didn’t happen…sigh…I was in at 7 today, will most likely be here till 7 or 8 tonight trying to get things done that are suddenly being required by tomorrow (we were supposed to have till next week) but my plan is to take a longer run of 7-8 miles at lunch time, an extended lunch, and then back to my desk, so I’m breaking the day up a bit.

In other news, my trip for April is booked!! My mom turns 60 in March and my sister and I decided instead of throwing some big party or something, instead we would take her on a trip, a girls weekend thing. We threw out a number of ideas and Savannah, GA kind of stuck, over the weekend mom found a package deal that was not bad for 5 nights and flight times were good so we leave on April 14 and come back April 19. Hopefully the three of us won’t kill each other in that time frame!! Now to just figure out what we want to see. Our hotel even has running trails right out the door, or so the web site says…cause I’ll need to get my runs in that week. I’ll have to adjust my schedule though for that week.

That sounds like a great trip. It is a beautiful city and you will find some good races there.

Yay, vacation! I've never been to Savannah, it'll be great to hear about it!

I'm definitely excited to see it. I have never been and it should be fun. If we don't kill each other that is!
