So as some of you know, the Nike Women's Marathon is coming uppp!!! It is this Sunday actually!
So me, being a last minute person and all... decided to finally start training or getting some running miles in so I don't die during the half. Or have my untrained muscles cramp up and everything since I am really trying to get under 2 hours this year, with a 2:16 from last year. I'm really hoping that I can do it. And so next year I can go for the full! :) Or maybe go to disneyland to do theirs. hehe. We'll see. Let's focus on the one this Sunday for now.
Haha. So i like to bring my phone to take pics of my running adventures when I go out to run. Still debating if I should bring a picture taking device for the 1/2. The views are so pretty! We shall see.
Anyways, it's 2-3 weeks before the big run, so i finally get myself to go out! And the weather was slightly nicer, so that was definitely encouraging.
 |
| i've always wanted to try this! my bangs are finally long enough! |
 |
| what helps me run... good music! |
This is another day with seaton:

 |
| 2.5ish miles one way. so did 5ish miles today |
 |
| yayyy. almost back. and seaton was speeding |
Checked out the trail that this woman likes to run. Part of Sawyer trail, off the Black Mountain Road exit on 280.
 |
| more sunsets. and that same lake. |
 |
| speed demon. during this time, we eat bugs while running. yummy. |
 |
| i like the forest effect |
 |
| if you notice, i always eat a lot after the run... so pointless. haha. |
Squeezing in another run before dinner.

 |

 |

 |

 |
| decided to run in between classes... and it was actually a nice day on campus... with no fog. you have to take advantage! and their track looks too pretty to not run on. |
 |
| did a mile in 7:35ish now... 13 more of those. |
My phone was low batt on friday, but I did the trail I did with Seaton and Cheryl (Sawyer Trail) but by myself this time... i know, loner. But I had music and forced myself to run 8 miles in 80ishminutes. Then went to pick up my broskii. No pics tho, but I was semi proud of myself. I like to run more with people though, so come run with meeee!
 |
| this is saturday and I decide to run around my neighborhood looking for tennis courts to play on in the future. Oh, and thats an old contact I stuck on our mirror. haha. |
 |
| boo. need to live there to play. |
 |
| off to the other side of san bruno |
 |
| hehehe. i hope my kids will like to play sports. this looks really cute |
 |
| in san bruno park SCORE! nice courts thats super close to my house! no lights though, so you gotta play in the day. |
 |
| return home to this deliciousness. my favvvvvv! |
 |
| This is today, sunday. i eat this hearty meal and broke my running streak. :( oh well... guess gotta push extra hard tomorrow. but this did remind me of in&out runs in davis! |
It feels good to get some running in. Except the part I always eat everything back afterwards. But it is always really peaceful to soak in God's creation while running. It's a beautiful thing.
Hopefully the weather will be nice again this week so I will be motivated to run.
Less than a week away!!!
Here are my posts from last years NWM ---->
