June is off the a great start! I left work early to pickup the race packets for Sautrday's 5K/10K. A friend of mine who lives close to the running store I had to go to joined me for National Running Day Festivities. Arrived for the group run right as they were taking off and ended up doing 4.2 miles in 41:10. Afterward we got a free shirt, some food, and a protein shake. Then joined the promotional team for happy hour a few blocks away (I am not currently in a challenge). It felt great to get out and run. There were runners everywhere going in every direction.
Also, I was picked Top Male in the Coffee Crew Challenge on the Body for Life Forum.

Happy National Runners Day!

Here is a link to find a group run near you this evening. There are 6 in my area. www.runningday.org

I Ran with my running buddy yesterday at 7pm and it was sunny and hot. We took a Trail from the fountain by his grandparents house to the bridge by the High School baseball fields and then back. 4.21 miles together and I decided to just keep running back to my parents house so I could go watch the NBA Finals. 4.81 miles in 50:13, we stopped to walk a few times.

Clocking in at 44.6 miles May was my second highest mileage for a month since I started running outdoors in September.I did 56.1 miles in November but the first week of December my foot started hurting. I would like to get back to running 12-15 miles a week.

Here what I have been up to since Thursday morning.
Thursday evening I ran with my running buddy on our new route that has more hills. I did 3.02 in 28:02. Friday I did not workout and did alot of wedding planning. Saturday morning I went for a jog at the park. I wanted to up my distance so I did a slow steady pace. I got to the park later than I planned and had to cut it short doing 3.33mi in 33:02. Sunday was more wedding planning. In the evening I went to the park with Ellen and one of her bridesmaids. They walked the dogs while I went for a jog. I was attempting 5 miles but only ended up doing 4.08mi. Yesterday I took Ellen to the airport then hungout with my cousin at his apartment pool. I will not see Ellen for 21 more days. 25 days until the wedding.

I have not worked out since Saturday morning! It is crazy how fast 4 days can slip by. Tuesday I had planned to go jog at a park before the Texas Rangers baseball game. The weather was getting scary. we were hungry and ran out of time. About an hour into the game they closed the 3rd level then they postponed the game. The tornado siren came on and we went to the bathrooms. I could not hear the announcements and some of my friends were sent to the dugout/locker room. There were a few tornadoes less than 10 miles away. Eventually the storm passed and they resumed the game around 11pm. It lasted untill about 1:30am and I emailed my boss to say I would be late. I only worked 5 hours yesterday and I was super tired when I got home. Luckily I am meeting up with my running buddy tonight and I plan to run 5-6 miles once or twice this weekend to get ready for the 10K in 9 days.
