Well what a week for running it has been. A lot of running with not a lot of blogging. Sorry to the three people who actually read this. This week has been so much fun though. I usually don't want to run some days and dread getting out there but this week I have not had that feeling.
Monday was the usual tempo run.
Daily Mileage = 8
Yearly Mileage = 533.5
Tuesday was a recovery day. My legs were heavy but I loved running the route that I did.
Daily Mileage = 5
Yearly Mileage = 538.5
Wednesday was a big day for running. I went to the track again and did speed work with my pacer. He slept the entire time which was nice for me. I did 10x400 repeats with my fastest being 1:18.
Daily Mileage = 5
Yearly Mileage = 543.5
Thursday
Daily Mileage = 6
Yearly Mileage = 549.5
Friday
Today I did my long run and it was perfect I timed out the rain storm just right and only got sprinkled on. I love me a good long run.
Daily Mileage = 12
Yearly Mileage = 561.5
This week I registered for the Des. News Marathon for the 24th of July. It will be my 4th time doing this race and it is also my favorite.
I was only planning on doing this race for the year but last night I happened to see a e-mail and I saw "free registration" so I looked deeper into it and I ended up signing up to be part of a WORLD RECORD!! here is the deal, You sign up to be linked together to other people and if we get more than 73 people to do it than it is a new record. The current record is held by some team in Germany. They say that we need to expect take 6-7 hours doing this race. It is in October.
I put it on facebook that I signed up for this to hopefully get more people to do it and I found some Haters out there. I was also told to my face that this is "dumb" well.....Haters gonna hate. If you don't like the race that I signed up for and the one I'm not forcing you to do than shut it!!!
Bonus: This race is FREE if you sign up. You have to pay 20 dollars but if you actually show up to the race they refund the money.
Well, personally, I think the marathon world record race sounds like it will be lots of fun to run AND to watch as well! You go for it!!!!! Who cares what the haters think, they are probably just all sitting on the couch feeling jealous of you anyway...hehe.
