So, despite missing Tuesday's make-up run on Wednesday morning, I did fairly well in pilates (Neci, of course, would disagree), and then hit the pool. I did 60 lengths! Only two more sessions and I'll be at a mile (76 lengths)--so exciting!
While I was at the pool, the girl in the lane next to me overheard me talking to Jim about my upcoming races and asked what sort of events I do. I then got to pull out my ear-to-ear grin that goes along with saying, "Marathon," and tell her that I'm running with Team in Training for my first marathon. Turns out that she does triathlons, so we swapped woes on swimming vs. running and the illusory biking portion. It was just interesting because a few weeks ago some friends were trying to get me thinking in tri-mode...I am still thinking about buying a bike as it warms up (it would probably be quicker to get to work, interestingly enough), so we'll see. One major life event at a time...
So yesterday was bizarrely cool. I had the wrong contact in my right eye, so couldn't see half the morning (this after not getting up to run because I'd been up late working on my thesis), and then it tore mid-afternoon, so I left work at 3. That sounds bad, but it was great! I made it home in time to grab a snack, run 5 miles (at a 9:00 pace, no less!!!), shower, and get to class. LOVED it!
It would be phenomenal to just be able to do school and training... ::sighs::
Hope all is well with everyone!
