Week 13 Training

Today was the first time that I have walked in the rain for any length of time. Our Saturday trainings stay on schedule, rain or shine, unless there is lightening. Amazingly it has not rained for more than 5 minutes on any given Saturday, so I really have had no idea what to expect. This morning started out with cloudy skies and a nice breeze. 25 minutes into my hour walk it started drizzling and as time went on it began to rain harder and harder. It actually felt really good. When I walked by the lake, it seemed that I was having a better time than the ducks.

This was a plain vanilla 60 minute walk. I ran on the 10's of the hour, for between 45 and 60 seconds.

Tonight I begin speed training with Finish Line Sports. I'm hoping to increase my speed so that I have a better chance of finishing the next few races with an official time.
