DAy 3 round 2 was Ab Ripper-I knew I was in trouble when my abs hurt when I was setting up for the first exercise. Needless to say, it was a very modified workout but I did something nonetheless. DH opted for a walk on the TM instead. Da... Read more

I ran the Pear Blossom 5k in Medford, OR on Saturday. We had to get up at 4:30 in the morning to get ready and make the trek over the mountains to Medford. We were out of the house by 5 am. The drive over was much nicer this year than last as... Read more
First 5k of 2010
Monday, March 15, 2010      4 comments

I'd be a liar if I said my first 5k this year was wonderful. To start off, I did way too many lunges at the gym a couple days before the race. I was still so sore and barely able to walk on race day. Then, the day before the race I got really... Read more
