My recent runs

[nowalmart]

So my sister and her husband have started running, and so we have decided to do the Kentucky Derby Mini-Marathon. Unfortunately my father has come down with some stress fractures in his knee and will not be able to run with us.

So I have 35 more days. Running so far has been going pretty well. I am annoyed at the hilly nature of my current surroundings, but what can you do? I basically live on top of a hill, meaning any run that starts and ends at my apartment is necessarily going end going uphill.

I have gotten into a good habit, going out every day. I am currently up to my long runs being about 6-7 miles. I started doing speed workouts a couple of weeks ago. I am right on pace for the half-marathon.

Anyway, I should be out. I have four miles to run today!

Woohooo! The sister made the blog.

Have you registered for the race yet? Our training is going well (although I've got a cold right now, so I haven't run for the past two days, but I figure that won't put the freakin' 12 weeks of training I've already done at jeopardy) and we're excited about the race. I'm going to make sure all the Zimmerman clan is out there cheering us on.
