Snow Day Intervals...

Last night, I heard the ice pellets hitting the window, so I knew that we would not have school.  Grandpa was in the hospital, Brad had just left, I had taken Excedrin for a headache (it has caffeine) so even though my body was tired, my mind was flying.  My car is in the shop, so the only hope for working out was Bridget.

The call came at 6:04 am, right on time.  No school.  Bridget was going to leave at 7 instead of being here at 7 to go to the gym.  She arrived at 7:45 and we were off.  I had intervals to run and she lifted.  I got on the TM next to another friend and took off.  10 min warm up followed by 20x 1:00 on and 1:00 off.  I was a bit tight at first, then I got into it.  My slowest speed was in the beginning at 9.5 (6:18) and got it up to 10.6 (5:36) and settled at 10.5 (5:39)  I was whooped when I got done, but I did get it done and did not have to stop and pee!  I think that has to doing it in the morning, rather than after school when I have already had 64 oz of water throughout the day.

I am now on the couch sipping coffee wondering who is going to put my clean clothes away...
