Easter weekend

We had a great weekend!

Saturday morning we had breakfast at Cracker Barrel with family. Yum-O.


Our Easter, as always was a fun time. We went to Church and even had my brother and his girlfriend attend. Service was great, then we took the country road trip to my Aunt's (only about 20 miles away), but feels like eternity sometimes. I had went up there twice this weekend. Grace and her 2nd cousins did some egg hunting, and we all ate WAY too much!

Apparently, she wore herself out.


I didn't get in ANY workouts this weekend. Friday, I did go to the pool for a 100yd repeats, and it was quite a struggle. Especially since the kids that were swimming in the large open area of the pool kept bouncing their beach ball in my lane. It wasn't that bad, until the kid would get in my lane while I was swimming a lap and prevent me from continuing . He really could have waited until I passed it. I had to stop and he says "oh, I'm sorry" - and stood there. Yeah, get the ball and move, please. Then, it happened about 3/4 more times.

Swim 1000 yds - 23:18 (2m 20s /100yd)

Since I was a lazy bum with workouts Sat and Sun, I felt the need to get back in the grind yesterday. I know I needed to swim, but I know my swims lately have left me with little energy the rest of the day, and since I know I NEEDED a run, I decided to skip the swim yesterday and go for my run last night. It's crazy, just the other day I was wearing a T-shirt and shorts, and yesterday it was tights, long-sleeves, and headpiece to cover my ears. It was a bit windy (~15mph) and I did hill repeats (sort of). It's a long uphill of about .75 mile, and I did the entire loop 3 times.

Run 6.2 miles - 1:05:51

On my next run (shorter distance), I'm gonna work on what Ashley left in my last post. She told me to do some fartleks. I know I need to do this, but have been reluctant because of the left leg pain I get when I run. I'll do a 3 or 4 miler tomorrow, try to run a flat course and work on it some. So, thanks for the advice! In my blog, advice is always welcomed with open arms!

As if I didn't have enough on my plate these days, I signed up for another college class that started yesterday, so blogging may take a small back seat at times. I'm gonna try to read and catch up with you all today.

Today for lunch is swimming, for sure, even though this is how I feel.
