Week #5 went well. I am starting to feel strong and into the grove about my running again. I made it to my Wednesday and Thursday morning run along with some other workouts at the beginning and the end of the week. I did my first speed workout. Uhhh, it was a killer. A 45 minute run/sprint felt harder than a 2 hour run, go figure? This was a cut back weekend so I only ran 13 miles on Saturday. I ran with my run club (Colonial Road Runners) rather than my run team (Alzheimer's "Run for the Memory" Team) this Saturday. It was good to catch up with the runners in my run club. Both groups are filled with inspirational and athletic people so I benefit from running with both groups.
The Alzheimer's "Run for the Memory Team" has started a blog of their own. I happen to be one of the writers for the blog; let me just say next time you hear a song by Vanilla Ice you may or may not think of the Alzheimer's Team. At this blog you can find updates, interesting stories and pictures on the entire team http://www.alzmass.org/marathon/blog/ !
Fundraising: I am still itching to get to $2,000 before February 15th. Please help by buying a ticket into my HOT raffle. If you would like more information about the raffle (which includes two free ski passes to Waterville Valley) please e-mail me at Lori.Coburn@alz.org
