Let's try that again.... Boston Training STARTS NOW take 2 :)

So many things going through my head right now... I seriously cannot even keep my thoughts straight!  Perfect time to blog then right? :)

First, I hope everyone had a fabulous Christmas!  I had a wonderful time with my family.  Dan got me alot of great running gear for my training over this winter so that does make me a little more excited to head outside and freeze my buns off lol.  I got some gloves, a long sleeve compression shirt with matching shorts, some smartwool socks, and a new ipod nano touch!  I am super pumped to try that sucker out!  My old shuffle just wasnt cutting it anymore.

So many GREAT GREAT things going on in my little life right now... so exciting.  Things personally, professionally, and actively.  Can't go too much into detail right now... but good things for sure coming my way.

I made a big OOPS last week.  It actually did NOT start my Boston training as i thought!  Funny thing.... i suck at math :)  even basic counting apparently.  Yesterday OFFICIALLY started my 16 week training.  SO- what does this mean?  Only one thing in my eyes- i had to do the week 1 speed work out TWO WEEKS IN A ROW.... and those 3X1600's were gruesome.  I hate speed training.  Ive decided already.  Its miserable!!!!!  AND- my hamstrings hurt worse than they EVER have... i am not sure why though.  I wonder if its just simply a new range of motion?  Its rough though! WOWZA.

Other than that just staying busy and trying to stretch alot.  Tonight is cross training so i am most likely hitting the bike for 45 minutes tonight!

  1. Woohoo for training! Good luck with speedwork. I'm not a big fan of it either! That's actually what I'll be doing today after work. I am trying to pump myself up for it!
