First, A HUGE thanks for all of your kind words in regards to my son leaving for Marine basic training. These last few days have seemed more like a month but I am sure once we are able to send letters to him it will help pass the time.
My training this week has been dead on. I feel so focused and really zoned in on each run and workout. It is hard to explain but I know that this year is so different from last. I just feel stronger... both body and mind.
I have not been able to ride this week. Summer afternoon thunderstorms have botched that from happening. If it does not work out again today than I will load my bike on the trainer (aka Big Red) and ride for an hour or two. Friday is an off day.
This weekend I have a 14 mile trail run and I am looking forward to the time on the trails again. Another solo run for this girl. Scott will be in the State Park running the roads while I hit the trails. We purchased some hot dogs for lunch and plan on having a picnic for lunch. He comes up with the best ideas!!

Glad to read it's all coming together...this is the year!
Ugh, I HATE afternoon thunderstorms-they've been bad here too lately.
Alright!! Nothing like having things come all together :-)
Mmmmmmm. Hot dogs. OK. How do you know he is REALLY running. If it was me, I'd be kicked back with a Sam Adams roasting me some weenies. Just sayin :-)
Great plans! I feel similarly as you with regard to this year being better than last. For me this year is so much better. Mentally especially but physically as well. I am much stronger this year.
Sounds like a great picnic plan. Don't listen to Wes! I'm sure he will REALLY be running. lol. :-)
Hey, also...if we can send stuff to your son let us know!! I can rally up some letters or goodies from blogland!
Great to hear your runs are going well. The weather has been sucky here. We go from nothing to afternoon thunderstorms. Blah
Love the solo trail runs, too...enjoy :)
Glad to hear it's all coming together! :) You have been working hard!
Hot dogs after a 14miler trail run? Sounds like a GREAT plan to me!
It's thundering now!!!! Have fun on Saturday! I'll miss you. You go, girl and hit the trails hard--just watch out for those rocks and roots.
Love ya,
Susan
