Walked Aubrey to school and then did my 4 mile loop without a watch. Legs are still sore from Saturday so just wanted to relax and run off feel.

Kids Track practice in the evening.

2 mile warmup. 8x800 at 2:55 pace with 2:30 rest in between on treadmill. 2 mile cooldown. Felt better than I thought I would. 10.10 miles Rotterdam Marathon course. 1:12:59 overall time, 7:13 overall pace.

Disneyland solo with my 3 girls in the afternoon. That's gotta count for at least 3! Walked to and from the parking garage (.5miles each way) and all over California Adventure.

Yoga Fix in the afternoon to loosen up some of my sore muscles. I have woken up to a new injury every morning (hip, knee, feet) so trying to stretch a bit more to avoid a real injury. I need a deep muscle massage by Sariah!!

I was feeling all sorts of sore/injuries/etc today and decided that it was better for my mileage to suffer than to injure myself now. Going to go off feel for the rest of the week and just be careful.

Pennsylvania 5K. 25:00 overall time, 8:03 pace. 

I iced, rolled out, massaged in the evening. Cameron finally suggested taking an Aleve. I do not know why I hadn't even thought of taking a drug. Aleve helped me come back from some knee problems a few months ago, but for some reason didn't remember that fact at all! Guess I am not a druggie.

Woke up feeling so much better. Guess a little Aleve helped a ton. Kept the miles easier: 9.0 miles Stockholm Marathon. 1:11:29 overall time, 7:56 pace.
 

Disneyland in the evening. Got there around 2:30 and the crowds weren't too bad, but as the day went on it got ridiculously busy! Stayed until just before 8 and decided we had had enough. Counting 3 walking miles.

Decided last night that I would run this race today. Wanted to still keep it somewhat a long run though. So I got to the race around 6:30, registered, and then did a 6.20 mile 'warmup'. (48:44 overall time, 7:52 pace.)

Wasn't really feeling in race mode, but I was excited to run somewhere new. I was pretty confident I would win the race. Wish they had some fun award or prize money, but knew most likely it would be a medal, and it was. Oh well. It was a tough course, and a tough day for me. Just wasn't feeling like I usually do in a race, ran alone most of the time. 42:42 overall time, 6:48 pace (6.28 mile course). First girl, third overall. This was a little discouraging because I want to run a whole marathon faster than I ran those 6 miles. And I was very confident before today that I was prepared to do that. Hopefully it was just not my day. And the race started at 8 so it was hot!

3.01 mile cooldown.
