PRs

I have no idea what happened! Was it running with the wind? No, because I was faster when I turned around and ran into the wind. Was it the Bing energy drink I had? Maybe, but I didn’t have one on Friday and had a PR run. Speed and interval training? Maybe. Whatever it was, I had 2 great runs. Friday was a 5 miler and I ran on Sante Fe Trail North from Woodmen and had a PR. By a lot. I was happy with that and figured it was a fluke, but Saturday I did a 10 miler and had another PR. By a lot. I’m not going to post my pace because for the fast runners that read this my fastest run is equivalent to their cool down pace. I’m not in their league, so I don’t measure my success by comparing myself to them, but rather to my own improvement and I was ecstatic.

On Sunday, Steve and I met another TriForMS bike team member and did a 40 mile loop in Fountain. I had visions of 50 miles, but was too fatigued from my command performances on Friday and Saturday to put in that extra 10. Molly started me off right with a chocolate covered strawberry and we had a great ride. Steve got a good ride in too as he rode ahead, rode back to meet us, rode ahead.
