Week 8 - Started out great. I ran my very first 23k and it took just over 2hrs and 40 minutes. A bit slower than I expected but hey, it isn't about speed with this girl. I am like a tortise but hello this is the farthest I have ever run.
My celebration was short lived when just hours after completing my run, the flu bug hit. :( I spent two full days at home and off work. It is now already Friday and I am just going out for my first run this week. A slow and steady 8K is the plan, then 6K tomorrow and on Sunday my goal is complete my first 26K run.
As promised, here is the Nike video that a great friend sent me. I cant help but love this cartoon. Seriously! You gotta watch it, even if it does have barking Collies in it. (Lys, Dave you totally hear Mom's dogs in this video don't you?) I have played this song on my ipod more times than I can count and it has come in handy on those long Sundays. I know I will be playing it again on May 16th.
Speaking of that I am looking for some new IPOD running songs any suggestions?
Well, gotta run!
Watch the video & don't forget to send me a good running song.

Made it back in just under an hour. Not bad for a rough week.
