1. I wore this dress yesterday. I have had it for almost a year and had never worn it. I got it at the
Bettie Page store when I went to Vegas last September. It was a little snug at the time, but it was the LAST ONE so I bought it anyway. I got lots of complements on it. Made my day :D
2. I did my first Yasso tempo training last night. What's that? I'm always whining about how slow I am and yet I don't do speed work?? Exactly. So
W (crazy sister) suggested that I try the Yasso program with the goal of a 2 hour half marathon.
So in 1:05 I accomplished:
- 15 min warm up @ 5.6 mph
- 4 x 4 min @ 7.5 mph and 4 min @ 3.0 mph
- 18 min @ 5.6 mph
Amazing how I accomplished only a little less mileage wise in that time than if I was just doing my regular "long" run. And I walked for SIXTEEN minutes out of it. But,
W claims that I will get faster, so I am changing up my regular Wednesday workout to incorporate this training. And honestly, I was dreading it ALL day, and it was not nearly as horrible as I imagined it would be, so... WIN! Followed up the tempo training with a 20 minute run:
3. I am in love with my gym clothes. Seriously.

So between the awesome
running skirt, the rad
leg sleeves and my fabulous
shoes... I just LOVE getting dressed to go to the gym. It *almost* makes the treadmill bearable...
I know it is three things Thursday, but I will add an additional three here, lol
1. I got my costume in the mail for
Disney Princess half marathon. It's gonna be awesome.
2. I have
friends coming in from California for
Warrior Dash this weekend. So excited!!!
3. Only TWELVE days left until I have to have all my fundraising in for Greece. Pretty please with sugar on top?? (And that means I only have... 73 days until the marathon. Holy crap. I need to get in some miles)
