Which is why I am now a proud owner of a guest pass to the Rec Center on campus! Let me just tell you...it's the best of both worlds! There's an indoor track (I prefer that over treadmills any day...treadmills get boring) AND it's air conditioned! How can you beat that?! I have been to my fair share of Houston Marathons (strictly as a spectator) and every year it is colder than all get out. So, don't think of my A/C requirement as lazy or anything...I'm just trying to train in the most similar conditions to those of race day. Ha!
Today was 4 miles and I did it!!! Again, lots of power walking but it took me right at an hour which was my goal. This body has never, and I mean never, seen 4 miles in one workout so I've reached a new threshold. I totally felt like I was going to collapse when it was over but that's to be expected. My bum is super sore already so I can't wait to see how it's going to feel tomorrow.
In other exciting news, I've designed the official Running4Landon t-shirts and they are being printed this week!! So if you've already signed up for one (or made a donation of $100 to get it free!), I should have them in hand by the end of next week. Woo hoo!
Speaking of the cutie-pie himself, isn't this picture adorable?
Geez, I could use his energy on race day!!
