Alice is a Runner!

Whimpy run.  I kept wanting to stop.  I thought it was much colder than it really was and had to take of my upper layer.  I am not complaining.  Being in the sun was nice and I took a new route and now know how long said route is.  

If only Provo had a beach.

I loved running on the beach today.  It was amazing.  It was also very nice to be running at sea level.  I am sure I will pay for it when I go running back in Utah next week.  I felt like I could run very fast and never have to stop.  That is quite a feeling. The sun was shining and the ocean was gently touching the sandy beach beside me.  I think this is what running in heaven will be like.  There will be running in heaven, right?  If not, I am not sure I want to go there.  LOL!!!! 

The rain did not deter me from running today.  You can't skip running when there is a beach to run on!  Another good run.  I actually was brave and took some steps up the cliff half way through the run.  I was glad I did because the view of the ocean and beach from up there was even more amazing than below.  It is hard to run on vacation, but the way I have been eating, it is a necessity!

Excellent run.  I felt like I could run and run.  I think I finally can understand what people have been telling me about a wall and how you get past it and you feel like you could go forever.  Pretty amazing.  It was a wonderful and warm day and the beach was gorgeous.  So glad I have been able to enjoy such a pretty place.  This was my longest run ever! GO me!

Short little run.  Knew felt like it might lock up half way through and really hurt.  I think Brutus is mad that he has to leave California, or he is having overuse issues.  Not sure which it is.  It was a wonderful last beach run.  I sure will miss this place.  Wish I could stay here forever, too bad I have to be a responsible adult for six more weeks and get back to teaching on Monday!

Brutus is Acting Up Again! :(

My knee is numb thanks to some post running ice.  Brutus was very nice all the way through the run on the dreadmill until I hit exactly 2.5 miles.  I decided to stop even though I had not yet reached my 30 minutes goal.  I felt like I would be okay after a week break but maybe I will have to let Brutus go on sabbatical for a little longer.  SIGH.  It felt good to run but I will not like the pain if this continues tomorrow.
