Mission: Hydration...

So today starts a week of Mission: Hydration...I will try to consume obscene amounts of water till race day. I am getting excited about the half marathon! Even though I missed 3 weeks of running due to sickness...I have felt pretty good in my last few runs. Last week...I ran on Tuesday and Wednesday. Walked on Thursday. Friday got 6 miles in with walk breaks and still did it in 1 hr 20 minutes then today got 10 miles in with some walk breaks in 2 hrs 17 minutes. I feel really good about those times going into it. Of course it would have been nice to gotten in more runs in those 3 weeks but oh well! I have decided to take walk breaks next Sunday whenever I eat some GU/chomps...so maybe every 3 or so miles?? I'm just going to feel it out as how I feel. I must admit that I am not remotely sore or anything today and could have kept going. It is amazing how your body after taking time off...can get back into the swing of things.

So school work has kept me busy and I am going to try super hard to have everything done before we leave for the beach this weekend so I can enjoy the weekend. My friend Meredyth and her boyfriend Tony will be doing their first half marathon this coming weekend too...I am so excited for them! They are going to do awesome!

Well I took some random pics of Norah...thought I would share.





Well tomorrow I observe at a middle school all day and then have class at UNCC. Then Tuesday I hope to walk with neighbor and work all day. Wednesday should be a run day, school work day, clean up day, and pack! Thursday is walk and full day at work. Friday is run and head to the beach! I also am super excited about taking the doggies to the actual beach and let them run around...certain times of the year you can let your dog run on the beach without a leash...they will love that! Well I'm off to finish some laundry and get everything ready for tomorrow!
