So this week (really the end of April) started off with beautiful 80 degree weather. Now May 1st and we're once again back down into the 30's with a forecast of 6-8 inches of snow. This really puts a cramp in my challenges and my training. The end of this month will see me running my 2nd (ever) 5K and I really need to amp up and get back on schedule.
My plan for this month was to run 3-4 days a week with cross training and hill training on the non-running days: a mix of yoga, aerobics, and weightlifting to get me into prime shape. My treadmill doesn't do inclines so I really need the weather to cooperate so I can get outside and do some actual hills. The last thing I need to do is slip on snow and ice and break something and really mess up any chance of participating. I have to say I am really looking forward to this run, maybe because it's at night, or just because I have been working so hard over the past few months since I signed up.
No matter what happens with the weather this is my last chance to really pull it all together. Here's hoping I can knock it out of the ball park!
