50 miles and visiting the 130's!

So much running going on over in my little world!  Last night I hit 50.05 miles, I did this on the 14th of the month..........what the heck!!!

On Sunday morning I hoped on the scale, and was shocked to see that my body has decided to visit the 130's!  I weighed in at 139, I hope hope hope, I am here to stay, but until I get more to the middle of the 130's I will act as though I am just visiting!

Saturday morning I ran with my neighbor Brooke and her running group.  The temperature was 28 degrees, the time was 7am, and the route was 4 miles........my bed was warm, warm, warm.  To get myself out of bed and my eyes open, I jumped in the shower, the hot hot hot shower.  the next task was to get myself out of that shower.  I barley got my running clothes on, teeth brushed and deodorant on before Brooke was waiting outside in her car for me at 5 minutes to 7.  The run was cold, oh so cold, there was frost on my beanie, and Brooke and her friends are so fast.  After the first mile and a half at 8:18 pace, I had to drop back to a 9 minute pace.  During the last mile, I was so cold and tired I wanted to puke, but thank goodness the route had us run along Wildcat Blvd, and I knew  a lot of people would be driving by that I knew, so they could get to their child's 8am baseball tryouts. I just kept running.  I was so glad when we got back to the parking lot!

Sunday I ran a hard 10.25 mile run.  I ran from my house to Chevy's in Rocklin and back.  I had to be home by 5 because Shaun had a 7 year old baseball draft to attend...I barely made it back in time.  I wasn't in pain or injured, I was just tired.  I did it though, and was able to run 4 last night.

5 more days until TINKERBELL!!!
