As we are just starting the week of the 14th...that week is only my projected plan.  I know boot camp will have a focus on arms Monday night, so that's a plus. Tuesday, I'm undecided on whether or not to go to spin class- it's been a couple weeks so maybe I shouldn't go.  Wednesday and Friday I hope to get my runs in before work so I am in morning-running-mode for Sunday.


This week I will:
-Try really hard to go to bed early and get up earlier every morning this week.
-Make sure I drink lots of water and start doing that Monday.

My super amazing A-Goal for Sunday will be 2:07.
Kara and Kristy say I can do it, and I don't want to let them down!

My B-Goal is 2:10 or less (which would still be a 2 minute improvement over September 18th).

That's all I got.

  1. 2:07 will be a piece of cake for you! I feel like as soon as I put pressure on myself to get lots of sleep the week before a race, it's so hard to do. Hydrate!

    Those are my perpetual goals as well :) Good luck!
