Prince Charming and the Princesses !!

Image
That was a tough half-marathon. I think mainly due to the lack of training since Sam's ankle injury, and also the fact that I wasn't well. It was an all-girl marathon (hence the Princess in the title!) but Princes were also allowed to support their Princesses by running with them - what really got on my nerves was the fact that a 'Prince' won the race.... IMO he should have been disqualified! What an asshole! He must have been really pleased with himself beating the girls (by a whole 2 minutes I might add!).... okay, I think I got that out of my system! If you click here you can see the Garmin mapping of our run :)

Time to get my pink on...

This Sunday our Princess half-marathon event takes place - haven't found a pink shirt I like yet!! We did our final training session tonight.... I managed 13miles on the bike, 3 on the X-trainer and 1.75 on the treadmill - not bad for an hour's work!! Hopefully all will go well for us and we'll be able to add another medal to the ceiling hook (must get a stronger hook!) Oh, and I'll have the Garmin running so you can see the event mapped out :)

Rain does not stop play....

...it does however change where we workout on a Sunday!! Strong winds and cold (for Florida) rain took us to the Gym this morning, so I did 35mins on the bike (14miles), then the cross trainer (wasn't paying attention to the distance as I was watching Dollhouse on my iPod :) ), then topped it all off with a quick jog on the treadmill (3 miles in 35 mins).... of course as soon as we got home it stopped raining and the sun came out!!! On a side note I've lost 7lb in belly-mass in the last 2 weeks - I can see my feet again!! ;)
