This Sunday I'm running the Surf City 1/2 Marathon for my third time! I'm running it as a training run for the LA Marathon in March, which is only 47 days away! Weeeeeeeee!!!
This morning I ran for the first time in a week after discovering I have shin splints. I spent the past week resting, icing, wrapping, elevating, stretching, and this morning when I hit the pavement my shins felt much better. I did 45 minutes of intervals at race pace, and I feel much more confident (I was worried that not running for a week would hurt my training...it didn't, phew). I was able to get a 22 mile bike ride in over the weekend though, which I'm sure helped. I'm going to run tomorrow and Thursday, and continue icing, and I hope I'll be A-OK for Sunday!
Another fun thing that's happening this weekend is the LA Color Run! For Christmas, our friends D&L registered me and my hubs for the Color Run. I did the OC Color Run with my cousin last year and we had a blast! Since Lisa and I are both running Surf City on Sunday, we're going to take it easy and walk/jog the 5K as a fun double date with our hubbies!
I'm looking forward to this fun-filled & race-filled Super Bowl Weekend!!! What are your Super Bowl Weekend plans??
