Well its Super Bowl Sunday, and sunny here in Michigan. It's a balmy 30 degrees. So I couldnt waste the sunshine and nice weather.

Well I got out for a nice easy Sunday morning run. Not sure why I ran today, because I typically dont like to run after a long run.

I did 3.47 miles in 39 minutes. Yes, it was very slow, but legs were a tight heavy and tired. It was great to get out, but I dont I will run again the day after my long run.

Come on peeps, share with us what you did.

Ran a 5k this morning at the Mardi Gras Marathon 5k!!!  Woo HOO!!  Got to see my first marathon and half marathon too!  

We stayed around for a long time after the 5k just to watch the half and full marathoners finish.  It was awesome to see!

I did okay!  I wasn't trying to go fast since I still have this little IT band problem, so I took my time and said hello to all the police working the race and thanked all the volunteers handing ou****er during the race.  I just decided that I wasn't going to be fast, so I had to at least have fun and RUN HAPPY!  I had a great time... but my "time" sucked!  LOL

OMG, YES!!  I saw my first Kenyan running... he came in first in the 1/2 marathon. 

And watching everyone's emotions as the crossed the finished line was great... I wanted to cry quite a few times.  It was awesome!  We even saw two people collapse!  I absolutely loved it!  Watching how hard it was for some people was inspiring that they managed to finished, but the people who collapsed kind scared me a little. 

Maybe next year I can to the half marathon.

I did the TM @ 15% grade for a mile (700 vert feet) and another mile jogging.  My HR was 185 when I ran for 45 seconds at the 15%.

Then I did a pull workout with Biceps and Back.

I embraced Mother Nature and took my sons downhill skiing today for about 4 hours.  It's been a couple of years since I've hit the slopes.  It's beautiful, but those boots sure are murder.

After being a slug for the past 2 days (school and work don't count), I went to an hour spin class then did 2.25 miles on the TM.  I really waanted to run for longer, but I had a tight hamstring and decided not to pu****  Then again, I'm kind of still in the recovery phase after the marathon and still trying to train for the first tri of the year.

This coming week's goal:  pool 3 times (doesn't matter how long, just do it), 3 spin classes, and 3 runs (one of them minimum 5 miles).

So, since the hammy was bugging me, it's appropriate that there's an article on stretching it in the new Runner's World mag.  Nice how things like that turn out.
