I rode my bike around Sug House Park 7 times. Then I rode up to 800 S following Sunnyside up to the zoo. I had to get off of my bike and walk up due to the steep incline. I felt shameful. My bike ride was absolutely enjoyable, relaxing, and peaceful. Minus the teenage boy that yelled at me out of his car and then threw a pen in my direction. :(

| Tri class at the Legacy Center. 30 minutes on the bike 1 mile test 6:50 Lots of time in the pool. My coach helped me with my absurd stroke for a LONG time! There is a lot more work I need to do on my swim. It has been since July I have been in the pool. Felt nice. 5 miles around the track. I am totally excited to do this class for the next 6 weeks. I did this on 4 hours of sleep. More sleep next week!

| 8 miles on the TM. Some fast miles were thrown down this evening to the new tunes on my ipod. Sit-ups. Sometimes I don't understand why guys at my gym try to talk to me while I am in the middle of doing sit-ups. It really throws me off.

| I loved my Tri-class today. 50 minutes on the bike 50 minutes in the pool. My swim has never felt better. I am focusing on finding the "glide" in the pool as well as not crossing the mid-line with my arms. 6 miles of running

| Effortless run on the TM. Toward the end my stomach was really obnoxious so I had to jump off. I danced for about 2 hours with my friends at FHE. I got a better workout from dancing. Very enjoyable. :)

TRI Class (BRICK) Saturday!!!! Hooray! I love this class. I think one of the reasons I enjoy this class so much is because I get to talk to some fun people. I almost slept in and bagged the whole workout due to staying up until 1:30 last night. I decided to go and try to enjoy myself. Bike 50 minutes. Moderate intensity. Pretty boring and the music stunk. Everyone in that class mostly talks about upcoming races.
Swim (mostly kicking) in the pool for about 50 minutes. I have concluded that I have a really strong kick and my arms aren't as powerful. It was strange how I zipped past everyone in the pool with my kick, even the guys. I don't know how I went fast but I just did. I need to work on my arm strength before I due the Half Ironman. My swim has improved IMMENSELY! The swim is now my favorite part of the tri class. Funny how you change something about your form and then your confidence is boosted. I still have a lot of work to do but at least I know what I want to accomplish with my swim now. :) Run 1 mile warm up with a pleasant friend named RAD. :) I was so excited to see her today after her marathon last week. We then did two half mile intervals on the track. RAD flew past me!!! Dang her! She really must have not gone fast at her marathon, she had way to much punch in her legs today. Three more miles around the track. Great workout. Now I am off to making pies for Pie Night!

| 1 mile warm up AB class 6 miles with the TM class and 3 more on my own. Girl on the TM next to me loves to talk about marathons. Sad thing is I would really not talk back. I felt rude but I hate talking while I run! I do listen well though.

| 13.1 on a TM with RAD. Wow. I could have slit my wrists at mile 5 but RAD talked me out of it. I think I broke my record on a TM. I was so happy that RAD was a pansy today and decided to stick with the gym. I know I worked harder than if I would have been outside somewhere running a 5K. Great Thanksgiving! Went and saw Secretariat. Awesome movie that made me motivated to run even more. :)

| Met RAD at her house in Herriman. You know you are out in the middle of nowhere when you pass "Free Manure" signs. I got a chuckle out of some of the family farms and the fenced in llama. I was glad to be out on the streets instead of a cooped up gym. Slow miles with RAD and Kelli. It felt really nice just to jog and loosen up. I have put in a lot of miles in the last three days so I need to take it easy until Monday. I also purchased new running tights at a sale this morning so I got to try them out! Loved them. Now I need to find a top that has the same type of warmth technology.

| Stayed up until 1:30 a.m. watching HP 7. Great movie. Such a great movie I slept in. :( I missed the TRI class and hit the gym when the crowd did. Stairmaster for 1 hour. I watched RAD run around the track and wished I were with her running. I promised myself I would not run four days in a row, I was a good girl and refrained. ABs for about 20 minutes Swam 40 laps. *High mileage week for me. GO UTAH!!!! I was very pleased with the Utah/BYU game. :)

| I made my way into the frozen darkness for an evening run at about 5:30 p.m. I decided I had to test out my newly purchased cold-running gear. Everything covered on my body stayed rather warm. However, my face, hands, and ears were numb by the time I came back to my apartment. I ran up toward the Zoo and became a little frightened because I could not see the patches of ice I was stepping onto. I planned to run 8 but I cut the route short due to the icy conditions. I was happy with what I did accomplish and rather relieved that I didn't fall or slip somewhere.
I was so excited when I came back to my apartment because I had dinner waiting for me in the oven. Hungry, cold, and stiff, I was happy to be home. I was rather frustrated when I turned the doorknob to the front door and it was locked. My roommate had locked me out by accident. :(
