When I say I turned it around…man I turned it around. This week I was determined to make it do what it do and have an AWESOME week of sticking to the plan. Even though I didn’t get up to run in the wee hours of the morning, I did manage to get my workout in for that given day….
On Saturday, I ran the MGC Long Run 15K in Columbia, SC. This was the first for a couple of things. First time running in a race this year and first time running a 15K. I signed up for this race at the last minute (was very hesitant even at that point because the website indicated that late registration does not guarantee a t-shirt). YEAH!!! I run for BLING (and in this case, since it was a 15K, I knew there would be no medal, so the t-shirt counted as BLING!!!)!!! Well, I decided to sign up any way because the race was for a GREAT cause. This was a great run for many different reasons….
OK by far this was the worst week ever. OK maybe not ever because we all know it was very rocky in the beginning of my training. If I had to give this week a grade it would definitely be a F. But it wasn’t all bad….
Alright, alright, alright (in my best Kevin Hart voice)…this week was GREAT and will be one to remember. I really really feel like I’m back on my A-game!!! #winning.
Monday was Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day and most folks had the day off from work. Our group leader put a filler out on the page to see if any one would be interested in starting at a later time versus starting at 5:00 am. The ladies all responded with an overwhelming 7:00 am. Whoo hoo…I could sleep in. Now after all this time (last three weeks trying to get back on schedule) here I am excited to sleep in SMH. But as you know things never go as planned…
Whoo hoo!!!! I think I’m back on track with getting up at 4 in the morning. Now I just need to figure out how to get up and get moving to hit the pavement at 5 in the morning 🙂 . Well, Monday started out very promising. I was looking forward to meeting my BGR! Columbia sole sistahs at the Summit Library at 5 am. Alarm went off, I woke up…checked the group page on Facebook and the group run was CANCELED due to rain. Time to initiate plan B…..
