| Quote from runswithdogs on 8/17/2008 at 1:50 PM: So, I'm officially done with OHR. I think I'm going to stick to my 30, 45, and 60 minute runs/week for another 3-4 weeks. I think it really helped me at the end of c25k/beginning of OHR to run the same amount for 4 weeks before increasing, so I think I'll just hang out here for a while.
Congrats on reaching your goal! I'm with you on the staying the coarse for a several weeks after reaching the goal. I am a firm believer that your body works best when you alternate hard days with easy days, hard weeks with easy weeks, hard seasons with easy seasons. Plus what's the rush? You're going to be running for the rest of your life, right? Anyway, I plan to do the same thing after completing C25K. |

Seeing how your body responds to time off is one of the best lessons you can learn. Now you're rested AND smarter.  |

Quote from runswithdogs on 8/15/2008 at 3:58 PM:Yesterday I made a PB &J sandwich, got distracted and left it on the counter. A few minutes later I had to make another PB&J, because there wasn't any sign at all of the first one.... hmmm. 
Hahaha, that reminds me....about a year ago I had made an appt for my dog to get spayed, and the vet told me that she shouldn't eat anything for 12 hours before the surgery, which meant no breakfast for Nikita....well I had made sandwiches for DH and my lunches and left them on the counter when I went upstairs to get dressed....and all that remained 10 minutes later were the plastic baggies and my dog licking her lips! So not only did I have to remake the lunches, I then had to take my dog in to the vet and explain that not only didn't she fast for 12 hours, she ate two turkey sandwiches at 7 am! Fortunately they said she should be fine and they just waited til a little later in the day to bring her in to surgery. At least I know my dog is resourceful
Skipped my run on Friday for no good reason. Skipped my make-up run on Saturday for no good reason. Skipped my make-up make-up on Sunday again for no good reason. But I'm raring to go today.
