Movin' right along in search of
good times and good news,
With good friends,
you can't lose,
This could become a habit.

Well the week is "moving right along" and I am happy to say that I am definitely over that last nasty cold and back on track with my workouts. I am still kind of winging it a little. With Myrtle Beach Weekend on the horizon, my focus as been on getting some outside bike riding done and getting some running miles in.
I have no PR dreams for the Myrtle Beach Half Marathon. I'd like to at least BEAT my Disney Half time of 3:17 but being sick really took away 2 weeks of training so this is going to be another FUN RUN.
I have decided to take a break from LONG RUNNING for a little while and put the focus back on quality in my running. I want to have some solid 5K & 10K finishes this year. I want to take the walk breaks out of the equation as much as possible. I will probably still have to walk the water stops. It is either WALK the water stops or WEAR the water for the rest of the race, I am that uncoordinated - but that is acceptable in my book. I just want to get back to RUNNING (or JOGGING if you like) the miles in-between.
It's not like the Half Marathon and Marathon Distance are going to disappear anytime soon...so it's back to basics for me!

good luck in tackling those 10ks or 5ks and seeking the quality in the training.
Hey. I just got back from the Surf City (Half) Marathon. (I've renamed it the 'Soak' City Marathon). 43 degrees, rain, and 30mph winds. I'm such a WHINER!!! WAAAAAAAAA! And my half marathon medal is not nearly as cute as yours.
Good luck on those 5k and 10k's.
hugs,
melissa
