Jedi Jen's Quest to 26.2 - Week Five

1/31/2012:

Start of week 5. Negatives: got up too late. Weekly mileage starts increasing next week - need to work on waking up. If I could just run faster, this wouldn't be an issue. ;) The wind gusts of 25+mph about blew me over or made me feel like I wasn't moving. I barely finished under 45 mins. Positives: The wind gusts woke me up & made me work harder. I love my new kicks! They have the comfort of the Kinvara 2, but little more shoe on the bottom. I finished under 45 minutes. ;)

This run also concluded my miles for January...total of 77 running miles!

This was the excuses run. I tried to think of anything to get out of this run. I'm too tired. My throat hurts. I have too much to do before the long day ahead. I'm too gassy. It is trash pick up morning on campus. My legs are sore...blah, blah, blah. Even though this was a mentally tough run, I feel much better on this side of it!

I met up with my twitter friend, Joleen, for this run! It was our first time to meet in person! I was super nervous because I knew she was a faster runner than me. We ended up having a great time! We met downtown & ran by the river. Afterwards we rewarded ourselves with chocolate milk & IHOP!





Joleen even did the thumbs up pic with me! :)
