So we are offically back from reading week and it was time to buckle down, not only in school work but also within my running. I came back Sunday and went for a run down to the bf's house. Monday I did a run on a new route, I combined two older routes together to make it a super route, and boy was it a super route! I ran a wicked 14km. It felt fantastic, the weather was great, and the pathways were not very icey so it made for an easy step. There was alot of hills but I felt I had enough determination to keep me going, and I sure did.
Tuesday came and that is fat tuesday, I usually do not run on tuesday yet because of the beautiful weather I decided to take advantage. I decided to walk home from school after sitting in class for 5 hours. Wednesday came next and I went for a run down to the bf's house, then picked up my bike and went with my roomie to the grocery store. So I was able to get in a good 7.5 or 8 km run down to the bf's, then a cold but fun journey to the No Frills.
Thursday I will not run, but I do have soccer and boy do I get enough exercise there. Well see what happens this friday, saturday and sunday. And I am hoping to not slack next week even though I am swamped with work:s.
Somehow over the runs I have done over the past few days a blister on the back of my left heel has developed. It is by far disgusting looking, but pffft I will not let it stop me.
The plan so far: There is a run at the end of March in Hamilton. Just a simple 5km. I am hoping to do it and place well. The first place girl in my age category has a time of 21:15. The second place girl has a time of 23:36. And the first place girl has a time of this 24:11. These were results from last year. I only hope I can do as well or even better then any of these top three girls. I know its extereme, but I think I can push myself. We shall see how it goes, hopefully I register in time. Let's see what can be done.

Hey! Where do I see how people in MY age category did?? Or are we in the same category... *sigh*
I still think 27:58 is respectable considering it took me like, 38 minutes the very first time I ever did it, in the FALL - it's not like I've been training for years or anything... ;) hahaha
Let me know if it's too late to sign up for the 5K in Hamilton, though - MAYBE Mi and I will join you. MAYbe. (Did we tell you Mi broke 25 minutes the other day? I forget exactly but her time was 24-something....CRAZY girl!)
