Paula's running blog

We went on tuesday and I had a hard run. I figured it was from giving blood. But then later in the day I came down with this cold. So now I  believe it was a combination of both. Anyway I was going to go this morning but the cold has moved into my chest and throat and I figures running out in the cold was probably going to do more damage than good. So hopefully tomorrow I will feel up to venturing out and finally getting in a run.

Ive had this awful cold so I was just hoping to complete our run today.  The first 2 miles were hard to breath. But after that things got pretty smooth for me up until the last mile. My mind and body were no longer into it. All in all I did pretty good. Now that I am home though my body is drained. I have a softball game in an hour so I am going to go power nap for 20 minutes and hopefully recharge myself.

Have a Great Weekend!!

       Yeah I feel good today. My cold is getting better and I woke up ready to go running.  I could not sleep last night, mainly because I am going to go order some cabinets for my kitchen today.  Im so excited.  So I should be tired but as of now I feel great and I will just run with the energy while I have it.

Have a great day!

I thought the cold was basically gone, but no last night I lost my voice and today I have alot of chest congestion and no voice. The run was good but I couldn't do the up hill at all.  I couldn;t catch my breath.Someday I will get over this silly cold.

Have a great day!

We had a pretty mellow run today, but the last mile kicked my butt. I cant wait until this cold goes away and I can breath normally again.

Have a great day!!

WE were all very slow today. I could not get moving fast at all today. But it was nice to get out and see the ducks running around the streets. My dog was tempted to eat them however. Jody leaves today for two weeks so hopefully I can stay active with Jolynn while she is gone.

Have a great day!

That was the hardest run I have done for a long time. My cold is making me so I cant breath very good and I could feel mysekf dragging the entire time but I just couldn't make myself go any faster. It was fun to go to all the booths after with my kids though.

I was suppose to go running with Jolynn this morning and my alarm did not go off. So Hopefully I will make up for it later in the week. She was very understanding however.

Went out finally today and ran the big block then added a little. It was a beautiful morning and I have been missing the running. I think the little time off has been great for my cold though. I am tearing up my kitchen so we can paint and get our floor done. Then put new cabinets in. But I cant figure out what to do with all the junk in my cubbards until I get new ones. Im tempted to just throw it all away and be done with it all.

Have a great day!!

Once again just a beautiful morning for a run.  I think I could really grow to enjoy this temperature all year long. No more snow!! Hopefully everyone elses run is just as enjoyable today. If you haven't got out do it and enjoy the warm weather!!

I was out very late last night an getting up early was so hard. Once I got out running though it was great. me and Jolynn ran together and it was just a relaxed run. once again the weather is beautiful.

Have a great day.

Today has been a long and busy day. I got my run in this morning and then I came home and went and hiked up to Timpanogas with my daughters class. It was way fun. But anyway it was a good run. I don't seem to be pushing myself to get the speed that I need, atleast I am getting out and getting in a run.

It has been yucky weather so I have hidden away also I have been staying up late doing my kitchen remodeling so morning comes way to early. Last week I hurt my arm and it was gradually getting worse all week so yesterday I went to the doctor and I have tendonidus.So I have this brace on my arm and was told not to do any work with that hand. Which is hard when I am sanding mud and painting.  So anyway I got my run in tonight and it was so needed, the weather was great nice and cool, and the sun was setting. what a beautiful run and I felt great. Now hopefully my run in the morning is as good.

Yeah I actually got up and went running this morning. I slept great and was wide awake this morning. It was a nice run with Jolynn but I had to get back for my niece this morning so kind of short. Who knows maybe I will add on tonight.

Have a great day!

Happy Memorial Day!

It's great to have Jody back to get my butt out the door and get my runs in. I start out cold an dby the end I am so hot. I need to figure out how to dress apparently.  Anyway my nephew is getting married today so we are off to a wedding and hopefully it is a beautiful day.

Have a great day!

We went out for a easy run today and then back to Jody's to do some toning. It was good to get a little extra work done on my muscles.

Have a great day!

Great run this morning. I have decided I need to quit looking for wheel weights for my husband because I loose speed fast. It felt great this morning and I actually enjoyed seeing Jody in the lead again. I think she is back to kicking my butt. Oh well it was great while it lasted.

Went running with Jody and Jolynn for a no pressure 3 miles. We were able to complain about softball and just enjoy the run.  I am going to sign up for Hobblecreek as soon as I get done blogging my time and I will send Heart of Holladay off today. Another  good morning.

Have a great day!

I just went to register for Hobblecreek and they are full so I guess I wont be running in it.

Wow 6 days straight of running. It felt great. I am so sad that I cant do Hobblecreek but thats ok I will train for it with Jody and see what happens later in the year. Maybe there will be another great 1/2 marathon. Anyway Have a great weekend.
