Friday night I picked Girl Clean up from her Grandparent's church. Amy was decorating for the 50th anniversary party happening the next day. Her Grandaddy, Amy's Dad, has been pastor at this church for a long time!
The trip to the church was easy and shorter then my normal commute when I pick Girl Clean up. The trip home took FOREVER. Harris blvd in Charlotte during 5pm Friday rush hour, ridiculous!!!!! Seriously it took over an hour to get from the church back to our house which was only 17.89 miles.
Mr. Clean had dinner ready when we got home. Then we watched Lady and the Tramp. I haven't seen this movie in years, and years! Girl Clean and I were totally into it! She and I went to bed and she watched it again.
Saturday morning I had my 10K race. It's the worst time I've had out of the 3 times I've run this one. I did better my first year then I did this past Saturday. I'm hurting still today so I know that I pushed myself. I really don't understand what went wrong.
The stupid last hill was not helpful. I've been running hills so I know that physically I should have been able to handle it but for whatever reason Saturday was just not my day for a race. According to the clocks the first 4 miles I was running around a 9:50 per minute mile, which would have been less then the first year, but last year I did way better. Lisa was running with me and actually pacing me, which makes a huge difference. My final time was a 9:56 per minute mile, my first year was 9:53, last year was 9:17.
I know that next month the 15K I won't be running for time. I just want to run to finish it. If I can run a better pace then the 10K I will be happy!
I got home and did some chores. Girl Clean got home from ballet. We had lunch. Then we got ready. We took Girl Clean to her grandparent's anniversary party and stayed for a little while so I could meet Amy's family. I was so happy to put names and faces together!
Mr. Clean and I left and headed to Trader Joes to figure out something for dinner. We rented what to expect when you're expecting from Red Box. I really liked the movie, but I'm glad I didn't pay a theatre ticket price to see it!
Sunday I took Jack for a walk and then we went to the 11 service at church. We got home from church and chilled out the rest of the day. It was awesome!!! I read 2 books and while I did think about going to the gym I decided to just let my legs recover!
Happy Monday!
