Ran 1.6 miles with my neighbor at 4 am this morning.  She was feeling much better today... and did AWESOME!

I will be out in the field walking the interstate again today, and will find out how many miles I covered and report. :o).  I found a 1/2 marathon I want to do in April, so I need to bring up the miles and decide if I should register or not.  any thoughts?

When in April is the race, and how have you been feeling lately (you posted hip pain a few days ago, is that better?) If it's at the end of April I think you have enough time, but be careful, you don't want to get injured! If it's a race that doesn't fill up in advance, maybe you can start training and sign up at the last minute depending on how you feel?

The cake you made a few days ago is too cute! And those pics of Melanie, adorable!

I would be conservative. You haven't been running much lately and a half marathon so soon seems like you'd be asking for trouble...

It's April 18th, and they also have a 10 K event. I think I'm going to wait until last min (like you said) and play it by ear. I want to do another 1/2 before I get pregnant... and since I'm hoping that will be sooner rather than later, I'm looking at the schedule and seeing if there are any coming up. Maybe I shouldn't push it though. I have slowed my miles down quite a bit lately, which I think is because of my new job. I work SO far away from where I live that I'm in my car for 1.5 hours a day. (minimum). When I get home, I feel guilty and spend time with the family. You just can't win... ya know

What race is it, Camille?

4 am? Really?

From Camille on Thu, Mar 26, 2009 at 14:57:20 from 75.171.21.138

burt - I'll re-look it up and tell you. Are you interested?

Kelli - yep. And I was stood up this morning. We won't go there

Not really. I'm doing the Havasu Half on the 4th and Pat's Run on the 18th. I just want to know which one it is.
