I'm not so sure about pool times, plus I need more bike time. So, I switched biking for running. I remembered some good hills I could try to get ride up to help prepare for that HORRIBLE hill on the triathlon. It was a good 35 min ride, but there were a ton of cars in my quite little neighborhood I ride in. What gives? Oh, St Olaf University has graduation today. Dang visitors!
I made it home, recovered my headphones from Greg. He had just said that his were beginning to hurt his ears, so I had him try mine out. He liked them, so now a few more pairs are winging their way to our house via Amazon! Yeah!! I love these Panasonic headphone. They are so light and sound pretty good too.
Anyway, the run. I ran for 60 minutes today! Yeah me!!!!! The first 3 miles were pretty good. I can just feel that I have better form. I was bouncing pretty well. Strange I know, but it just feels better now.
The last 2.5 miles were tough. I really wanted to get the full 60 minutes in though. For the last 5 minutes, my arms started to tingle a bit, as did my face. I know that feeling... not good. So I slowed it down just a bit. I made sure I was breathing deeply. It went much better then. I got all 60 minutes in.
Now, I'm beat. It feels good, but tired. Kari just reminded me that tapering in just around the corner. That corner is 1 week away, and I can't wait. However, it's pretty cool to see that I can do this stuff now :)
