Rough ride!

It is great getting back on the running band wagon, but it has been a rough ride!

Monday: I went to my tap class and had a blast and then I went shopping at Express. I bought everything on sale and used a $20 off coupon: 5 pair of shorts and 4 tops! Then Jeremy and I went for a 3.5 mile run... I had to take a walk break because my stomach was cramping into one BIG knot. Even though we had to walk some we kept an average pace of 10:58! The lesson learned on Monday... don't eat a Chipotle burrito bowl right before running, LOL! It was heavy and I didn't allow time to digest before treading on our run!

Tuesday: my stomach was still not 100% from the abuse I gave it on Monday! I ran 5 miles with Coach Paul at 5pm and it was a HOT 83* with little breeze! I was soaked by the end of that one and grainy to the touch from salt depletion.

Wednesday: was a day of rest... so I soaked in Erin's jacuzzi, we watched the movie 27 Dresses and ate dessert (rasberry/blackberry mix pie) with Vanilla Ice Cream! Call the press... Melissa actually rested, lol!

Today: I will go to my tap class and enjoy my last day of tap for the 11 week session and pay for my next 11 week session :) Tonight Jeremy and I will run another 3.5 miles, I hope we have a good run and a good pace!

Tomorrow is a rest day again... a mystery movie with my dad and dinner.

Saturday I may work on my pace with Paul! He mentioned doing track runs and I am just waiting for confirmation! Jeremy needs some running gear and we plan on hitting the sales racks for some cool gear for my hubby. We have dinner plans and Disney in the evening.

Sunday, Jeremy is going to run the Back Bay for the first time for his 4 miler and then it is rest time for me until my bowling league at 5:30!

Busy Bee... is sweet Melissa living up to the meaning of my name!

My friend Amantha is getting me the Wicked Soundtrack, how cool is that... I am so excited. Click on the link to learn more about the story! I have never been a HUGE fan of the Wizard of Oz... as it scared me to adulthood... I actually only saw the movie a couple times and I think I was of drinking age by the time I saw it the whole way through. So even ME... LOVED the musical! The vocals, set changes, and everything was Amazing! I had been very curious to see it and now I would like to see it again! Thanks to Amantha for making my curiosity a reality and for the great time we had!
