Weather

Here's the thing about the weather...its hard to please me. Too cold lately here in NJ, however, in a few weeks, I have an incling that I will be complaining its too hot and costing me a fortune to run the air. I will just chalk that up to being a women because I have no other excuses. I mowed half my lawn last night and for the first time, I wore a hat a gloves. I must have looked rediculous. Most people look at me funny anyway because I'm the only women in NJ that even mows the lawn. The strange thing is mowing my lawn is a million times easier than most of the things my father made me do when I was young. This is easy. Now ....my workouts, not so easy. Today is my hard day. Quarter mile sprints with weights in between each, no rest, 12 sets works out to 3 miles of sprints. Then, I have the crazy swim practice in the evening where I try to swim way more than I would like (over 2 miles total). I'm still a guppie for sure. I have a half Marathon this weekend, so I will take at easy Thursday and bike on Friday. I haven't run over 10 miles yet this spring, so the 13.1 will be interesting. Slow and easy, not looking for a pr. Saturday morning, race starts at 9am which means I will be up early to get into Brooklyn by 7:30, yikes! trigirl likes more sleep than that! Take care of yourself and exercise today.

You can always track the marathoners, but I'm not sure about the halves. I will find out. My foot chip number is CF95709 which you might need to track me...I will see what I can find. I just checked the weather too and it is supposed to rain starting tomorrow until next Tuesday, my oh my, I think I might end up with a blister or 2 on Saturday with all that rain...not good, I am opposed to blisters.
