Forgot about flyers for Ward Activity this Saturday. I am on the committee. Ran the "Tape-the-flyers-to-all-my-neighbors'-doors-circuit-training workout". Took 42 minutes 44seconds with a little help from hubby and about two minutes stopping to discuss our route. I was "sprinting" from door to door flinging on tape to the notes, running up lots of stairs etc.. so pretty good workout. Ran a 7 minute mile home I was so pumped up. Plan on running in Cedar Hills this afternoon while Amber is at dance. So beautiful up there on the trails. Sleep still crazy, itching all over and night sweats, sleeping two hours at a time (weird, my little sister called me to ask about her symptoms of itching all over, night sweats, insomnia, she is 22months younger, has 7 kids with twins the caboose. They are 14 months old). Genetics, so twilight zone-like. Teeth beginning to feel better but cheeks still numbish. Better than the intense pain I suppose. Sorry no TM run for me. Will start speed next week. Big 23 miler this Saturday- Hope to Hobble with Melanie and Kim real early.

Afternoon run SWELTERING> just couldn't get into it in the heat/humidity. Ran only 2.45 miles and just said that's it. Heartrate at only 110 to 120. So no pushing it just felt too much heat. Pace 9:03. Surprised thought I was much slower. New shoes bugging my left leg, ARGHhhhh!!!!

You are so funny! I can just picture you sprinting from door to door.

Hey I had night sweats in my 30's. I am now menapausal and still have occasional night sweats. Glad your teeth is feeling better. Have a fun 23 miler. Always helps to have someone to run those long ones with. Where are you girls running? My group is planning on running up Provo River Trail for 10 and down for 10.

Smooth, we are running from Hope Campground (up Squaw Peak road) to Hobble Creek Golf course on trails. I think it really is more like 22 miles. Yay!!
