Busy busy day.  Finally sitting down and it is 630pm.  Courtney off to school by 7am.  Amber off at 7:50am.  Carpooled Brooke's crew to junior high. Back at 8:10am.  Cleaned up morning and other odds and ends.  Out the door at 825am for Gold's gym trip number two.  Saved a spin class bike. Took too long here  lowering seat fitting myself to bike. Got over to TM.  Ran 5 miles. Started at 6.8 mph and increassed pace every 0.25 miles by 0.1 mph.  All at 1 percent except for last four ons/offs done at 0.5%. Ran two miles like this and went right into 3 x 1 min on/off at 9.8 mph/7.1mph, then 3 x 1 min on/off at 9.9mph/7.1 mph, then 2 x 1 min on/off at 10 mph/7.1mph  and lastly 1 x 1 min on/off at 10.1 to 10.2 pace/7.1 mph.  Ran til five miles another 0.5 miles or so.  Can't remember.  Went to first spin class with TWO legs since last winter.   Yes last spin class was early August with my cast on.  ha ha.  Did spin for 40 minutes then BACK to TM for three easy miles AP 8:15 at 1%.  Started slow and ended at 7:13 for a wee bit.  Ran by Kim for a mile.  She and Jane joined me in spin.  Saw Chandi too.  18 weeks pregnant.  Party at GOLD's.  Jane's sister was there too.  They go a lot. This is gonna be a fun December at the Gym.  Topped it all off by hanging in the Sauna for 15 minutes, partly with Kim.  Some interesting old men in there :d.  Then headed home to shower and head out for Christmas shopping at Target.  Ran into Jan after we both were there for two hours!! ha ha.  Tomorrow Insanity Class at Gold's.  May not be able to move Saturday.  6am!!
