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).

Got some exciting news...


Mondays can be a drag, you know?  They are rough in general, but they are especially tough following long weekends/holidays.

But my Monday was made a little bit better today by this awesome email:


Yay!  Team Mean Girls is in (yes, we named our group after the movie and there has been talk about themed costumes relating to the movies).  Can't wait - time to check another state off the list!

Anyone else is?
