I'm alive! :)

I've been so unresponsive over the past couple of weeks. So sorry! **I've been reading all of your blogs, just need to get better about commenting** Sorry!

Truth is . . . work is keeping me slammed. I spent a week in Louisville - in a training classroom enviroment from 8AM-6:30PM. Then, I've been working non stop since I've gotten home. Basically, I was trained in Louisville to then train our Tampa office!

Training in Tampa is over tomorrow. The acquisition is complete and the integration is almost done.

I've still been running. :)

I'm actually racing a 5K on Saturday. We'll just have to see how that goes. I'm partly excited as it's the same course as my 5K PR from November (it's just a little hotter outside) and I'm partly terrified because you never know how long 20 minutes feel.

I'd be lying if I said I didn't want to break 20. I'd be lying if I said I didn't want to PR. But, I'll honestly be happy with anything sub 21. I'd be lying if I said I was happy with anything 21:xx +

I don't know what kind of shape I'm in. I've been hitting up the track every week and racing half marathons like crazy!! I'm in great shape to run 7:15-7:22 pace for 13.1 miles ... let's see how that translates over to 3.1 miles.

If nothing else, Saturday will be an indicator of my current gauge of speed! :) The goal is to break 20:00 by the end of Spring/Summer (5K season in FL).

Leave me some love!! I miss all of my comments!

XOXO

  4. She's alive!! She's really alive!! You can nail that 5k PR you are seeking for sure and I hope you can do it before June because as you already know that's when we start melting down here. I'm currently working myself back from injury (plantar issues - left foot)but am considering a June 5k to chase a new PR and end my season on a good note. So glad to see you are alive!! :-]

  6. I know you will do great! Your training should translate well because you have been doing track workouts...Let me know how it goes! I haven't raced in so long! Technically since December, but I wasn't really in any shape to race then so its really more like October so I have to experience races through you : ) Hope work calms down for you!
