things that make you go. . . hmm

Woah, what to say. The last two weeks have been a mess of Spen being away and our family preparing for H's 3rd birthday. The combination left me with little or no time to train but I did manage to get three walks in leaving me down 20-some miles that I don't see any way to make up before the big night (just over a month away). I'm going to go back over my mileage from the last few months and hope that I have at least 20 miles of over-walking in there to make me feel a bit less disappointed in my overall training efforts, but what can you do?!

Today was H's birthday including all the fun foods and a trip to the indoor play centre! It was awesome watching her smile and play but was also super tiring and left me with little motivation to walk tonight. Thank goodness for the guilt outlined above as I managed to get in the 6 miles on the training schedule by completing the swimming pool loop in 1:11.22. Great pace considering the lack of training going on!!

Last week I did two 4 milers and a 10.85 miler. I'm back in the game but I am getting a bit concerned that the week of not training will come back to haunt me on the night. Off to Halfords tomorrow to get a new Garmin as I have had no joy w/their corporate office.

10.85 miles - 2:18.40

4 miles - 47.31.73

4 miles - 46.53.02

6 miles - 1:11.22
