Back in the Game

You might have noticed that there weren't many postings this week as I was having "get your tush off the couch" problems, but I got myself to the Coaches Workout at Kezar Stadium and it was just what I needed to get back on track.

Lots of folks running the 12K on Sunday, and some helpful hints, but the runs tonight were jog 200 meters then jog/walk 200 meters 6 times. Well I made it around 9 times for 2.25 miles and my pace on the jog was pretty good (and consistent) i thought at 1:45. Coach Leslie and the team were very encouraging and one of the mentors had the team wait for me on one of the intervals which was greatly appreciated. I didn't feel dead at the end which was great!

And a huge shoutout to the Somers family in North Hollywood Florida! Those IPS girls really know how to help out a friend and the LLS even after 30+ years. My nephew Rob arrives tomorrow to see San Francisco and to provide encouragement to me on my first endurance race.
