Monday and Tuesday: Ouch
Wow, thanks for all of the comments on Tuesday. I have to admit that I was hesitant to talk about paying myself for cleaning. That it would seem silly. But it seems to have been quite the topic. As I replied to some of the comments, I don’t pay myself every week if there has been recreational shopping or even the same amount every week. But it works for me.
Monday I hit the Desert Classic trails for another 5 mile run. It was FUN, I saw a coyote and didn’t fall down. Although I tried a couple of times. And because that wasn’t enough wear and tear on my legs, I decided to do an at-home Crossfit workout Monday night, thanks to Jess at the Blond Ponytail. It went like this:
10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1, Burpees, Squats, Pushups, Situps. So 10 of each, then 9 of each, 8 of each, and so on and so on. Um, OUCH! It is a workout for time and I did it in 17:10.
Run: 5 miles Trail / 1:08
Because of Monday’s double-time, Tuesday was a day of walking the dogs and not much else.
I did sign up for my 5mile Trail Run! The McDowell Mountain Frenzy. I am VERY excited.
Food over the past couple of days is nothing exciting. Part of a muffin, cream of wheat, egg beaters, a steak, some leftovers, I got my first red cup from Starbucks. Nothing too exciting.
I cheated myself on the muffin. A bad cut job left one BIG half and a skinny, little half.
What is your next race?

I’ve done that CF workout – it is a killer!! Great time!
My next race is the Gobble Jog 10k on Thanksgiving morning that benefits MUST ministries in my area. I am hostessing a small turkey day gathering this year and eating in the evening so I figured I could pump out 6.2 miles before strapping on the apron and feel vindicated later when I gorge on turkey, dressing and pumpkin pie. I love Thanksgiving!
