Did no long run May 2-3 b/c of open house (trying to sell home). Did yoga class on Monday and was too sore (!) to run Tues. I think on Wed. I jogged to the gym and jogged some on the treadmill and maybe did elliptical...? Can't remember.
Took a short walk on Sat. May 9 and then ran the Pacers Running Festival on May 10! Started morning with tummy trouble and didn't eat much before event -- half a banana and some sunflower butter right 20 min. before. Weather was cool & sunny - very nice to start. I was too far up front at the start of the race and passed NO ONE. First two miles in 17:18 (all downhill). Nine miles in 45:22, I think. Was on pace to beat last year's 2:05:30, but the last two miles were all into the wind and I felt like I was pushing against a wall. Finished in 2:05:57 I think. Had to put head down shortly after finishing for a few seconds but then felt fine. Had nice brunch after (walked up Rosslyn hill happily enough).
A little sore next day but gone by Tues. Later in week had no energy. Didn't really even feel like doing yoga. Jogged around a little with boy in stroller putting up Open House signs on Friday, May 22 -- maybe 2 miles. Ate lots on Monday, May 18 at bday party and felt sugared out. No energy to want to run or do yoga.

Tuesday, April 28 - jog E to friend's house (a mile away) - hot, tank top
Wednesday, April 29 - jog E through park. stop to play. Approx 2 miles. hot, tank top
Thursday, April 30 - walked to friend's (one mile), jogged back home, prob 12 min jog (with E)
