weekly Check In

[ell]

Happy Monday all!

How was your training last week? Any good race reports for us? What are your plans for the next week?

Here's a quote for you:

The beauty of running is its simplicity; the beauty of runners is that we all have a similar drive to improve. We are either trying to run a personal best, or toeing the line for the first time, which will snowball into a future of trying to run personal bests. We road racers are a tight community of mileage-happy, limit-pushing athletes.

Deena Kastor, long-distance runner who holds American records in the marathon, half-marathon, and numerous road distances

Do you agree with her?

Early this week was great! I moved on to Day 2 of Week 5 of couchto5k after two or three weeks stuck on Day 1. Then...I got the cold from hell. I was sniffly and running out of breath going up the stairs. I'm trying to decide if I should push myself to run today, or leave it until tomorrow when I'll probably be better. Tomorrow might be the smarter idea.
