On Running

To answer the question on how my running is going...



It is going fine. I still feel rather heavy lugging my body around with fifteen pounds I am yet to lose. Due the the extra weight I am having trouble getting in the speed work I need, but my endurance always seems to amaze me, if I had more time who knows the amount of kilometres I could add up. Speaking of adding up miles/ kilometres- of which I now have the ability to think of simultaneously, I received for my birthday the apple/nike run thingie- very cool. Although I think Luke has more fun with it then I am and he isn't even using it.

Another exciting development is the formation of the Saugeen triathlon club. I do not have enough time to learn to swim with any sort of skill but I do dualathlon (bike/run) it is great to be together with other fitness focused people who act to push you and support you. I am also liking the coached workouts. In time we may even get matching uniforms!!

So where is my running leading?.... Fitness, fitting into my pants, and longevity. In addition , there are a few races I want to do this year... maybe more then a few...

I know I will not be able to do them all, and if I place in any of them I would be surprised, but I just love a race and the food after. It is almost free!!! Well except for your entrance fee.
