Catch up....

Well let me see.. holy moly it's been a WHOLE month since I posted.
Life has been busy. Running & more running. I even added some cross training in the mix.

Work and just plain busy. Plus there was some traveling too which messed up my whole schedule that week.  GRRR.

On the 27th of June, I left my beautiful mountain views and flew to Dallas for 36 hours or so.
I got to see my beautiful sister, the other crazy running girl in the family and that was AWESOME, with a capital A!  I got in a run while I was in back in Big D. Not sure how but I made it thru. That Dallas weather. OMG.. Yuck. How did I do it before I ask myself.
Seriously, it was already over 80 degrees at 730 in the morning. Days even weeks later I am still shaking my head at that weather.  So glad to be home to cooler temps and my God given mountain views.

As I said  I've started working in some cross training, mostly because my Achilles is acting up again, but I know it will help and I need to lay off my heel so I don't break it again.

So my cross training is Cycling. Yep you heard right, Runner Girl has taken up biking.
Which before seemed so just well, WRONG, to bike, when you can RUN but maybe it's the mountain air or I don't know what, but I LOVE LOVE LOVE cycling.

I feel like I am cheating on running, but seriously I LOVE it. I like it sooo much, I am sticking with this biking thing for a ENTIRE week and no running. .. Yes I know shocker!!!  But I have to. Remember?  My Achilles.
Yes that's it.  No I am not cheating but just laying off due to my injury.  Yes ... That's why. (at least that's what I will continue to say about it)

But seriously, this new thing, I like it so much, I'm already thinking about Century Rides , and wondering do I have time before the busy season at my job to train for a century ride, and could my body handle both training for a half and a century ride... so many thoughts just swirling.....

Anyway...

It will be time for Re-commitment soon, but more on that to come TOMORROW..

Time for new running shoes, but more on that soon .- COOL story too.

So seriously, stay tuned. Same BAT Channel.

Till tomorrow.
Runner Girl
