I am just letting you all know I am still alive and running. Just a bit too busy to post here or update my running log. I will have some updates in both places soon.

A long walk in the park. October 6, 2007

I ran/walked 7.00 miles in a little under 2 hours today. I actually only ran about 2 miles of it because my pacing still sucks. I could have walked further, but by the time I hit the 7 mile mark I was sweating like 10 whole men, I was sunburned on my shoulders, arms and legs, and I was out of Gatoraid.

I learned a few of lessons from this:

1. Don’t forget to put on sunscreen even if it is only 90 degrees outside.

2. Don’t wear your rings - my fingers swelled and I could not get them off for awhile after.

3. Bring more then 3 bottles of Gatoraid.

4. Next time get more then 2 hours of sleep before you decide to go out for a long run/walk.

I came back home, showered and passed out on the bed for about 4 hours. I am feeling pretty good right now. Minor aches in my legs, but nothing worse then normal after a run. The sunburn does hurt though. I can feel the heat radiating off my skin.

Just an update October 5, 2007

I have been running, but I have not had a lot of time to post here. I have updated my running log at runningahead.com though. I also had another girls weekend. It was great. That is all for the moment.
