Started a new training plan this week.  Will be slowly increasing my miles from 20 to 27 per week, as I get ready for the 1/2 in May.  I'm also running a 5K that same weekend, and I'm kinda curious what kind of time I can get in a 5K.  Gonna try to go fast :)

Spinning class!  There are only 5 of us that come regurlarly.  I'm suprised the class is still going.

The boot camp class was cancelled because only 5 people were coming.  If we can get 8 people to come, they will start up the class again.  Wanna come to bootcamp?

Ran 6 miles today on the treadmill.  I was hoping it would be warmer outside so I could use my new headlamp, but 30 degrees with a strong wind was too much for me.  I ran according to me "smarcoach" outline.  1 mile warmup, 4 miles tempo @ 9:35, then 1 mile cool down.  I felt like I wanted to tempo faster but decided to follow directions :)  

Evidentally one of the gym members is running for sheriff.  There were three ladies on the treadmills in the row in front of me, with elect "so and so" for sheriff (forgot the name).

10 easy miles in the rain.  Steady drizzle but didn't notice after awhile.  Nice temps in the high 50's.  AP: 10:30.  

Working on my food while running.  Tried a shotblock at mile 3, Powergel at mile 5, then shotblock again at mile 8.  Seemed to be okay although my stomach started twisting when I was done.
