A little overdue...

Wow...what a draining week! I sure hope next week slows down a little. My weekend was basically spent at the school putting together and organizing my classroom. For being a first year teacher, I sure do have a lot of stuff. I'm sure my dad would would call it junk, like he always did when he helped me to move during the college years. However, one person's junk is another's treasure! My mom said that I better stay at Minnetonka for awhile or find a guy to help me move all of my stuff, because she sure isn't going to be of much help. My dad was always the one to help me move, now I'm sure he is smiling down from heaven happy that he gets to get out of this one.

I didn't do as much mileage as I should've this week, but that's ok. There was no way I would've been able to run more with how exhausted I was when I came home from teacher orientation. I'm glad I gave my body a little bit of a break, because when I ran 10 miles today it felt so good. It was crazy, but the run went by so quick. I definitely could've kept on going. It's wierd to think that 10 miles is an easy run for me. Crazy! My running partner, Michelle says that I'm doing a very good job with my training. We finished 10 miles in under 1 1/2 hours so that means we were running 9 minute miles. I think that's pretty good.

I'm going to be more vigilant this week of sticking to my running. I need to remember to take time for me!

I'm going to place the order for the t-shirts this week so this is your last chance to tell me if you'd like one. As of right now, only 3 people have expressed interest in a shirt. Please let me know.

Blessings,
Lacy
