Running!

A coupe of my runner friends and I signed up for a Small Group Coaching package with an awesome coach!

We didn't really know what to expect, since none of us had ever been coached before.


We started off with a nice warm up and then moved on to a few drills with a lot of explanations on how to actually do them correctly.

I think he wanted to laugh at us after a couple of them, but was too nice to actually do it.

I also did my first ever Fartlek workout...on grass no less!

It also turns out that I have I have the "marathon shuffle"...which can't be too bad since I do like running marathons:)

2011 Race for a Soldier Half Marathon...Lissa, Me. and Sandra! (No pictured are Alice,  Heather and Melissa)
It actually means I'm not driving my knee enough to really use my effort efficiently and get all the speed  I can out of it.

I also let my stride drag a bit on the back side wasting energy there too...

I LOVED it!  I want to get another package:)

In other news I'm doing another Half Marathon this weekend...which will qualify me as a Half Fanatic:)

Eh, I don't know yet. It seems like a waste not to.
