Still Here!

Okay, I have been training.  I just haven't been writing.  5K was totally awesome.  I NEED to get better at this though.  My walking time was the slowest I have walked.  I found out this particular 5K has a lot of partiers and like to stop and take pictures along the way. Bleh, I just wanted to go fast but I didn't want to leave my carpool people too far behind.

Anywho, now training for the Dirty girl in November.  This 5k requires a lot of upper body strength because there are climbing obstacles.  Gotta keep moving.

Wog

1 mile in 14 minutes 30 seconds.  I didn't have a partner tonight, so I tried for speed instead of distance.  My wogging is getting a little faster.  It just doesn't last very long.

Last night's adventure at Safeway brought on for a horrible night.  Couldn't sleep at ALL.  I kept having nightmares and I would wake up every half hour to do a house check.  The check every kid and check their window check.  Just another reason not to do anything stupid like that again.  Hopefully I will sleep tonight.  Kinda tempted to take a benedryl just to ensure a good night's sleep.

Stupid

2 miles-31.44 minutes. Whoo HOo!

Tonight I was doing my grocery shopping at Safeway.  I had just loaded my groceries into my car and got in when 6 very bulky native guys run out of the store, running with as much beer as they could carry.  There were several people from Safeway (workers and customers chasing them).  Two guys tripped and dropped their  beer.  All of them jumped into a truck where most of them had to ride in the back.  The driver could not get the truck started and the alarm on his truck was blaring.  I was stupid (yes I am admitting it) and I pulled my car in front of one of the corners of the truck. Another huge truck blocked the rest of the get away vehicle.  Lots of people were taking pictures of their faces and license numbers.  Driver gets frustrated and pulls out a gun.  That was my cue to drive away which I did very quickly and everyone else ran away.  We stalled them long enough where you could here cops down the boulevard coming.  The truck pulled away and the stupid bad guys lost most of their stash due to tripping.  No one got hurt, but I will admit that was dumb of me and I probably will not be that brave again.  Maybe if someone was getting hurt I will be brave but I will not do things to save stolen merchandise. 

Bleh for adrenaline rush and stupidity.

snakes

Last night I walked around fields and along the canal.  Ended up at my parents house and they weren't even home.  I carried a maglight with me but lights don't keep snakes away. Uhhhggg I almost stepped on two (the harmless kind but still).   3 miles 53 minutes

Slow

2.18 miles in 42 minutes.  Really tired from the day so I think that is why I slowed down so much.  7 AM Tap meeting at the school, 8:30 formal observation for an hour, picture day, principal comes in for an informal observation, 3:30 IEP meeting, race home and get Quintin to ballet, feed kids, bed kids, get pushed out of the door by walking partner.  Longest day ever.

First 5K is in one week.  I better get this thing moving a little more
