Hot town, summer in the city...hotter than a matchhead
I am blaming it on the heat. I had a plan to wog on Friday aft. at 6pm at the Rez by myself. Well, at 5:15pm on my way home from work, my car's temp gauge for "outside" temp. said 104 degrees. It was not difficult to talk myself out of it...simply said, no way am I doing this today! Did not go with the group on Saturday because we were leaving between 8:30 and 9am to go out of town for a wedding at 2pm. I knew that running on Sat. am would push me too much to leave on time. So, I guess I missed doing the 9 miles. Today, I went to Church, played tennis in the "hot brilin' sun" from 1:30pm to 3:15pm. Again, some of the girls cried uncle and we quit. I rushed home, took a quick shower and went to yoga at 4pm. It was a little easier today than last Wed. I am a little afraid that I am going to "pull something" during yoga and not be able to do the marathon. My lower back hurts and is achey after each yoga class. It doesn't last too long, fortunately. I plan to continue but I think I will take it a little easier and not try to do everything Heather does (like I could). Lord knows I could use some "loosening up". So, I did 2 XT's today and have not run since last Saturday. Not good. Tomorrow, I have tennis drills again and will get plenty of running in then. On Tuesday I should be back on training routine but I will HAVE TO get up and do in the early a.m. due to the unbelievable heat. When I got back into my car today at the tennis court, the temp. gauge for "outside" air was 113 degrees! Maybe there is something to that global warming chat. I have not watched that video yet...can't seem to find the time to sit and watch a video. I'll have to find the time since it is about our special life project...CM! Hope everyone takes it slow and easy this week with your training and don't forget to chug water EVERYDAY.

Just wanted to say thanks to you for always being so friendly. You are so kind to remember my name and make a point to speak. It means alot.
Lordy, please do NOT pull something in yoga and not be able to do the marathon!!!! You are smart to take it easy. And be careful about pulling something playing tennis--I did that the first year.
