October 31 Monday - No Run... Everyone lost electricity from the big storm we had. it snowed out on Saturday evening and due to the heavy snow and leaves still on the trees we lost a lot of trees. the devestation has been incredible. we did not regain full power in our town until friday november 4th, they managed to come out to remove the live wire in our driveway. they postponed Halloween until the 4th. we were nervous about the kids coming to the house that night. Well, it is gone now.
Tuesday, TM 2 Miles
Wed 4 miles tm
thursday TM 3 Miles
Friday Off
Saturday Off
Sunday 14 miles total time 3hours 15 min 54 sec
14 mm or so.
my first half (7miles) i felt great, legs were good, knee felt okay ( i wore both knee braces) Hilly run at some points but okay. at 1 1/2 miles i fell due to a car traveling quite fast toward a stop sigh. he was not looking my way. i was running on the left side against traffic and saw him coming fast, so i stepped to my left and rolled my ankle left, but fell to the right, onto the pavement in front of the car. he did stop and jump out to make sure i was okay, i thought he was going to have a heart attack. anyway, i scraped my elbow and bruised my right upper leg. i am okay though. the second half was mostly controlling myself down hill. that is tough for me, to actually have a controlled downhill run so i do not become exhausted. at 12 miles i was tiring and ran for 2 min and walked 20 sec for a bit. and tried to push myself the last 1/2 mile. All in all i can and will do it :) haha
