Training Day 74 - 80: Where Have I Been?

Date: 16 May 2008 / Distance: 4.02 mi / Time: 35:06
Date: 17 May 2008 / Tennis / Time: 60:00
Date: 18 May 2008 / Swimming
Date: 20 May 2008 / Distance: 9.96 mi / Time: 89:14

My training schedule is all bungled up!  Sorry!  I've had to shift the schedule because I've been out of town.  I will try to get back on schedule next week though.  I ran my 10-miler on Tuesday with Joel.  I was excited; I've never run 10 miles before.  We ran along the boardwalk so I had a great view of the ocean.  I saw a pod of dolphins playing around.  They were jumping into the air and surfing waves.  Watching dolphins is always a great diversion.  I started feeling the long run around mile 8 or 9.  My hips started feeling a little sour.  Otherwise, I think the run went very well and I'm confident I'll be able to finish the half marathon (so long as I keep to a 9 - 10 minute mile).  Woo hoo!
