My eyes are a bit itchy, but I just took a Comtrex so it ought to kick in any minute now...

Early this morning I did light weights -- cut back on both weights and reps. While I was doing them I was thinking about this evening. If I feel ok, I plan to either go to gym or make Paul come with me around the neighborhood. I can tell I am not running on full, so I will probably just walk and cut back to two miles rather than trying the 3.25 schedule for today. If I don't feel ok, I'll do it tomorrow, but I do know I want to start easing back into it soon. All this week the temps are going to be in the high 70's! Yay! I may have to buy some new capri's/track pants.

Yay, Cat got trick-or-treaters! I got exactly one - my little next door neighbor Joel. But it was raining, so I'm REALLY not surprised.

Went back to Weight Watchers meetings; the inspiration and the good leader really helps.

Looking forward to running tonight; I've switched the schedule ahead one day, so that I don't have to do hour-long runs every Tuesday and Thursday (you know, when I have class at night).

training 10/30
Locale: PF
Minutes: 44
Mileage: 2.0
2000 mileage: 133.0

So yes, I did figure out what my mileage to date was, and added another two last night. It wasn't as good a workout as I had been hoping, however.. but as good as can be expected with what happened yesterday. The link provides much more information than I can bear to type here right now.. I'm so sore!

Training 10/31

  • Focus: 3.25 mile run
  • Actual: 2 mile walk

My first trick-or-treater was my 2 yr-old neighbor from across the street with his dad at 6:30 PM. He came as Blue from Blues clues. Right on his heels at an average on 1 kid per minute, came 100 children. My front door was slamming open and shut so much I quit trying to sit back down with my book on the sofa and just hung out on my foyer. The candy stash was wiped out by 8:15 PM. Paul and I quickly closed up shop, put out all the lights, brought in the the candles, pumpkins, witchy brooms. The only thing we left out there was the scarecrow. Then we went out for a brisk walk through the neighborhood to see the rest of the kids and decorated houses. That was the most fun 100 NF pledge forms to walk out my door!

I feel better from the flu, and the walk wasn't bad, but I am very tired now. It just wore me out. I am glad tomorrow is a rest day! Adrith e-mailed me this week to tell me that we broke over $2000 raised. Yay! :)

Still out with the flu. Mainly in my nose now, so hopefully on it's way out. No coughing fits like before and my temp. is settling down. While I didn't do much cardio this week, I did get in 3 light weight training workouts. Got the Halloween cards ready and labelled a bunch of pledge cards. Next week I'll get on with doing some more fundraising letters. Comtrex is good.
