RUNNING is the buzz word of the moment

Yep, I not only am bullying, oops I mean "strongly encouraging", you guys to run- I have been doing it myself! I have been running a lot lately and it is making me oh so happy. :) I ran 6.5 miles on Tuesday, the farthest I have run so far. It was a good feeling. I also have decided that the runs have gotten to that, somewhat less than scary place. So that means I need to up the intensity again.
So after one small anxiety attack, I have commited-2 sprint workouts a week. I am freaking scared. But that usually means that its a good thing, so bring on the speed workouts. I already did one on Monday, and lets just say- I wanted to vomit. AND my legs haven't been that sore in YEARS. Thats right I said years. Not even after 400 tippie toe lunges. It was tear worthy. And I LOVED it. Bring on Saturday! Patrick is going to run with me. It pisses me off when he beats me because he never trains for anything cardio. Plus I just hate losing to him. But that is all part of the plan to make me push to the limit, because he is faster than I am. Either way I am ready. Bring the Pain.

I am a witness she was doing the tippie toe lunges when I was there!!!

I hope you win the race on Saturday! I hate those people who don't have to work that hard and are already good....
