Miles ran this week: 21

Miles ran so far in my training: 39

Hip/stomach measurement 40"

 Our first 5k  was at 5:00 pm 12/31/13.Mandy and Helaine pushed themselves during the "Resolution Run" (aka beer run) and got great times.  As for your girl NJ, I decided to stop at each beer stop and partake.  By the last stop I could feel the beer sloshing in my stomach and have now learned that running and beer do not mix well. 

The next 5K was called "Run In The New Year" we did started at 11:45 pm 12/31/13 and we crossed the finish line in 2014.  This was my favorite of the three races.  my headphones were jacked up so I ran this music free.  it was dark but we had on headlights and I a battery pack of star lights that twinkled nicely. I somehow lost Mandy and she finished about a minute before me. 

Our last race was "Hangover Half/5K"  Mandy opted for 13.1 and I opted for the 5K.  I had very little sleep from the night before due to the late race and early Mass.  It was cold so I used hand and feet warmers.  At mile 2 I had to physically stop and take my shoe and sock off because the foot warmer was cutting my right foot.  All in all not a bad time of 32 minutes (considering the stop!)

My other workouts last week included trying out a Fierce class (WEAK) and yesterdays nine mile run.  Those nine miles were done inside, 54 laps around the DTYMCA track.  It was hard.
