Keeping It Going!

For 2011 I am setting my goals high but completely within my grasp!

I intend to do a race a month finishing out the year by running as a Hero in the 2011 St. Jude FULL Marathon!

23 minutes and 1.63 miles. :) Slowly adding time and distance. I will admit the run today wore me out! I'm glad I'm taking off tomorrow (we're going to a Redbirds game tomorrow evening) and that will give my body a chance to catch up to my work out.

I have been stretching after every work out too, as per my physical therapist's recommendation. Its helping with my flexibility and my recovery I think. That and it just feels really good. :)

I also ordered a new pair of running shoes today. I found out that Nike is going to be replacing the style of shoe I like so I was looking at getting another pair before they become hard to find. I found a place online that I ordered from that was $20 less than at Nike.com and with free shipping. So I went ahead and ordered them and that way when my current shoes get half way worn out I can slowly start breaking in the new ones so they will be nice and broken in for the big race in December.

I did get them in blue and white so they will look different than my current ones (which are purple and white) and I won't get confused and mix them up.

Yay for new shoes! :)
