Okay, I've completed a full marathon in 2005 and hiked the rim of the Grand Canyon in May of 2006, so now what? Well, its no rest for the weary...so I'm back on Team in Training's run team this summer. But I'm no fool, I'm training for a 1/2 marathon this time.

No More Burritos Before the Track Workout

Boy did I feel sluggish at track tonight. I blame it on the chicken burrito I had at 3:00. Track wasn't until 6:30, so I'd thought that "stuffed" feeling would go away by then. I was wrong! Fortunately, I didn't spew, but I felt the weight of that burrito as I ran two miles. Coach Al had us estimate our time for completing two miles. I figured I would finish in 26 minutes (13 min/mile pace sounds doable, right?) Nope, I finished in 28 minutes, 39 seconds and I blame it on the burrito---that's my story and I'm sticking to it.....
