Friday, May 30, 2008
I did my run in the morning today so I could get in more recovery before tomorrow’s track wo. OCal said it would be a speedy session! My legs seem to be recovering faster so I think they now realize the holiday is actually over. Speaking of a holiday, I have no […]

I did a 30 minute spin this morning before work with some light stretching afterwards. My legs feel pretty good today  so I think I am getting back on track.
I made it to the lakes after work at the same time IRR was about to start their session. I ran the warm-up with […]

OCal had me take a day off yesterday and do an icing in the ocean instead. I brought a book this time, and stood waist deep, reading. I got a few odd looks but I didn’t care.
I ran easy 30 minutes at Cedar hill early this morning and did some light stretching afterwards. My legs feel much […]

Monday May 26, 2008
I got up extra early this morning so I could get in a run, core-work and singing. I was all ready to head out the door and could not for the life of find the key for the front door of the building. I normally get in by driving into the garage […]

It’s been waaay too long since I have run with LeRoo. We had dinner on Friday night and made plans to meet this morning. I actually woke up excited knowing I would get to run with her again. We cruised around the lakes and YAKKED and YAKKED…it was ridiculous. I don’t remember […]

Yesterday was a day off so my legs were rested and ready for today’s session at Oak Bay. The National Tri team were there to do their wo too this morning so it was pretty busy track on the track with OCal and other coaches Joel, RonB and Lance. 
Kev and I were to […]

Thursday, May 22, 2008
I started the day with a very relaxed run at Cedar Hill. My legs feel better…yay!
OCal gave me a 15 minute sub-tempo run. I decided to run on my own at the lakes so I would run how I felt rather than running harder than I should trying to hold someone else’s […]

I did an easy 30 minutes on the trainer to try and loosen up the legs. I forgot that the bike was off the trainer so I that extra time to set it back up had me running running around like a mad-woman trying to get to work on time.
The 45 minute […]

Tuesday, May 20, 2008
I woke up this morning and as I made my way to the bathroom I knew today would be pay-back day…I was facing a track session after work today and yesterday’s plyo session left me with sore muscles. I hoped I would feel better as the day went on but of course I didn’t. Everything […]

Monday, May 19, 2008
Ahhh…what a great morning . I did the things I usually do on a weekday morning but didn’t have to rush around like a maniac trying to fit it all in before work! I did a 20 minute run, drank a smoothie, did a good session of core work, took a shower, had some coffee and toast and then […]
