8K Run #4

Tonight I ran 8K in approximately 1hour and 9mins.  It took my Garmin .4K to find a signal.  I ran downtown right after work.  Selena Gomez was performing at the JLC tonight and my run took me past the JLC both ways.  Both ways I met the same ticket scalper who tried to hit on me.   Also, visit Shut Up + Run  , (Just) Trying is for Little Girls and Pain, Pride and Perseverance for giveaways!

Thunderstorm!

This morning I ran 8K with our running group in 1hour and 15mins.  I am pretty happy with this time as on Tuesday I ran 7K in the same amount of time.  My route that we ran is below.

The bad thing is that with about 2.5K left in my run it started to thunderstorm. 

 

I was completely drenched by the end of the run.  When I got home, it hadn't even rained here!  Argh!

Tomorrow is a rest day and my parents may also come to visit, so I guess I will be spending the rest of today cleaning the house.  My training schedule for next week is as follows:

Monday: Cross Training

Tuesday: 8K Run

Wednesday: 6K Run

Thursday: Rest Day

Friday: 4K Run

Saturday: 10K Run with the running group

Sunday: Rest Day
