Busy, Busy, Busy!

I've been soooo busy the last few weeks, I've hardly had a change to run, let alone blog! We've been to DC, MD, NY, VT, back to NY and home again over the last month! SO much for the great training plan I talked about in my last post! I did get to spend some quality time with my goddaughter, Isabelle, so it was so worth it!!! (isn't she a doll!)


I HAVE been running, but its been very sporadic!. I have a 5k race next week, so I've been trying to get in least 3 runs a week to be ready!! Last week, I ran Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday. So far this week, I ran Monday and hopefully will run today and Saturday! Don't know how the race will go, but ready or not, here I run!

Since my running group has ended, I've found it hard to motivate myself to run. My regular running partner L is suffering from plantar faciatis, so she hasn't been running at all :( (Even worse, her husband has a stress fracture of his foot from running - :( ) So I've found a 'virtual' running buddy!! Isabelle's dad is just getting back into running , so we've agreed to be virtual running buddies. We've been texting and e-mailing each other to see if we are getting in our runs each week...its actually helpful! Kind of the same reason I blog....for some accountability! So if you don't have a running buddy or running group - try finding a virtual running buddy!
