my first week of 13.1 training went very well, imo.  the second week, however, was nonexistent.  epic fail.  in all fairness, hubby’s marathon and a very agrivating illness derailed me.  which really stinks because i needed to do an 8 mile run last week but it had to be postponed until this week which made me feel like i had to up it.  jumping from six to nine… oy!  i did remind myself this week that walking in the sand is really, really good for my running legs.  i need to make a bigger effort to incorporate that into my training.  if i can walk at all tomorrow, i should take it to the sand.

it’s not that i haven’t been active at all, it’s just that i haven’t had the time or motivation for ranting in general for the last month or two.  there’s plenty that i have to say and show but it takes time and energy and i have neither.  anyhow, i at least need to get back to my weekly activity reports because i am officially in half-marathon training now.  i finally signed up sunday so there’s no turning back now.  holy crap!
