Time for a new season of running. Last week we ran in the rain. This week that would have been the case for me again - except this week the rest of the team ran in the rain while I endured the 20 degree weather of Minneapolis! I'm looking forward to getting back to San Diego tomorrow and to running with the team.

I know that my mother hasn't posted in a while... and I'm very sorry that I haven't pestered her about it. However, she does have a valid excuse: she recently spent nearly a month in the Philippines with her mother.
Shortly after arriving back home, Mom decided to run a 5k just to get back on track for her next marathon. So, on April 1st, she arrived in Carlsbad bright and early and ready to run. Afterwards, Mumsie decided that 5k's are much more fun than marathons. They're quick and don't require as much endurance. Does that mean she'll be giving up marathons? Not by a long shot, but I think there's a new hobby in the works...

9/16/2006 My first uphill run & was that hard!!
Our team started at the Von's shopping center in El Camino Real for our warm up & we started running by El Camino Real shopping center parking lot & we headed towards Jefferson where we went uphill. Pam my mentor at that day helped me a lot & kept me in focus. She also continue to remind me the proper way of running uphill (run slow & look up a little) & boy!! did that help. We ran 5 miles, & this time I ran for 6 minutes & brisk walk for 2 minutes. It was a lot of fun & a lot of body aches :-)
9/20/2006 Our first training w/ Coach Bill
Our team met at CSUSM at the track & field & for the first time we had to undergo a rigorous warm up like marching w/ our knees way up, jumping & sliding on our sides like we are dribbling a basketball & much more. After the warm up we were instructed to divide into 3 groups & did a relay running as fast as you can where you can't talk anymore. We did this for about 10 laps & coach said this exercise will help us in our breathing & build endurance. I got home very sore didn't even shower & literally fell asleep in our couch because I was extremely tired. There you go for endurance training!!

Yeah! today is very emotional for me I ran w/ our TNT group by Moonlight beach in Encinitas & believe it or not I finished another 4 miles but this time it is running for 5 minutes & fast walk for only 1 minute. I couldn't believe I did that! The last time I did the 4 mile run it was on a track and I ran for 3 minutes & walked for 2 minutes & it was a slow walk too.

There are some things that you need to know about my mother. One, she's very compassionate. Two, she just turned 50. And three, she is crazy, and I completely respect her for it.
You see, my mom has combined the first two things that I mentioned in making her decision to run and walk a marathon to help The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. Being a recovering cancer survivor, she felt that at this milestone in her life, she should do something to help others.
So, without further ado, I'd like to request your support. For more information, please go to my mom's other website, here.
Also, keep checking back at this blog! I'll make sure that she keeps everyone updated in regards to her progress.
