Training recap week of 4/21 (Grandma's Week 10)

This week was a little better in terms of aches and pains.  I ended up taking Tuesday off to help with recovery.

It was good I did, because this week included state #16 - Nike Women's DC.  And for some even bigger news, I accomplished one of my goals this weekend, I set a new PR during the race, a 1:50:01.  I'll have a full recap soon, but it felt great.  It was hard, but makes me feel pretty solid for Grandma's (in just 8 weeks).
