I Did It!!

Last night I ran up to SAIT! Well I probably ran 80% of the way there....on the way I got lost a few times, had a few meltdowns but it was still an amazing run!! Definitely makes me want to go again!! AND I made it all the way up the HUGE hill!! That was my goal for the run and I did it!! The whole trip took me an hour and 10 mins, I probably could have been faster but some parts I needed to walk....this is only day 2 back training! lol When I got to Phil I was completely soaked through my clothes!! That never happens! It felt so good! But I didnt have anything to change into and it was FREEZING cold!! So I stripped down to my pants and sports bra and he gave me his sweater and coat for the ride home! I love that boy! Then he fed the puppies so I could have a 20 min HOT HOT HOT shower to warm up! Did I mention I love him?!?!

Today I had to bump my workouts to Friday since we have a Flames Game right after work. Phil is on his way right now to get me and then we are rushing home to get the pups and taking them to the offleash for a run, then back home to feed them and put them back in their kennels and off to the game we go!

Today at lunch I wanted to go to the running room but I had my first Open Session with IIN at noon so I didnt have time, but I really wanted to get another outfit for winter runnign since I have had to wear the same thing two days in a row now and its too stinky to wear for a third and I dont have time to wash it everynight! Anyways....since it was too far I went to the Winners and Sportschek that are just down the street. I ended up getting a nice warm pair of running pants and an Adidas black long sleeve top, its one of the Olympic ones and has Canada down the side...guess how much!?? I got both for $44!! woohoo! The shirt was only $16!! I cant wait to wear it! I wish we didnt have the game tonight because im raring for a good run!

I stopped at Jugo Juice for lunch and grabbed a sample of the Honey Stingers pomegranate organic energy chews. HOLY YUM!! Those things are amazing!! I need to get some! I am going to grab some on Friday when I finally get out to the running room!! I cant wait! YUMMYUMMM YUMMMMMMY!

Other news, I decided I am going to do the Calgary Half Marathon! I registered this morning. Coincidently I had my running room book with me and the program is for 16 weeks and would technically start on Sunday!  Totally doable! It just means May and June are going to be BUSY! We get back from Mexico from our Honeymoon on the 10th, and go right back to work, the I have a weekend in Canmore with the girls and the 12 k run on the 16th, the next weekend is my try a tri, and the weekend after that is the half marathong. Then Im off to Jasper the next weekend for my Banff Jasper Relay, I have one weekend at home and the next weekend is the Chinook Half!!! Seriously....hope there is no laundry or errands to do! Ill say goodbye to Phil after the honeymoon! Thats all until the Ironman though.....so nothing else until August.

Ok Im off to the game! GO FLAMES GO!
