I Moved!
>> Wednesday, August 20, 2008
It's been almost a month since I've last written, and I haven't been just sitting on my ass :) The reason for my neglect of this blog is because I moved apartments and have been swamped at work. I had to delay my "training plan" because I simply didn't have enough time and was too stressed during the move to drive my butt over to the track. My new apartment is a better place that I even imagined, and I have mapped out and tried a 4.5 mile, 6 mile, and 8.5 mile route thus far.
Overall, my route goes from my house to Ocean Ave., around Entrada and around that neighborhood. Chattauqua made a really awesome long Sunday run, and I think I am now running distance from several trailheads I usually would drive to - HEAVEN!!
Lastly, I am now only a mile away from the Santa Monica Stairs. These stairs are awesome to incorporate in the middle of my run, and my quads are still sore from several rounds on Monday afternoon. Do not underestimate them. You can make them what you make them AKA pass the slow walkers and don't stop!
I found a funny (and true) clip about the Santa Monica Stairs...enjoy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q014PVJV8vw.
