    It has been a long time since I posted a blog. In fact, I couldn't even remember what my  log in was. After alomst an hour, I finally remembered by password and log in. Over the Christmas/New Year holiday most my runs were shorter (only up to a 5k).  Last week I got back into more organized training, but then got lazy/busy and didn't post a blog.

    This week: 

    Mon-20k bike ride. Found a nice little park with a lake for a rest stop along the way. 

    Tues-2k swim. How I hate sculling. 

    Wed -10k walk/run. Well, a lot of talking going on too. 

    Thursday-1k swim. Got to class late but had a good leg workout with the fins. 

    Fri-Boot camp. Too much plank work. It is obvious I need to strnegthen my core. I was exhausted after class, but forced myself to run around the lake. A very slow 3k run.

    Just found out there is a charity run next Saturday. They have a 3, 5 or 10k. I haven't done a 10k in a while so I think I will do that. I think a couple other family members will sign up for the 3 or 5 k run.

      Ran 4k, walked 1k, then ran another 3. This was harder than I thought it would be. I know I could run 10k just 2 months ago, but now I'm back to 5-8k. Maybe because I waited until noon and the weather was hot.  I guess I realize you can't put running distance miles into a magic running bank and expect to get them back whenever you want. You have to keep running the longet distances frequently, or your body can't keep doing them.
