[/caption]So, the first thing to say is --
HAPPY BIRTHDAY BRYCE!!
My Son turned 9 yesterday, and had a VERY busy Birthday weekend!
Now, lets start with the week in review! This is what my week should have looked like:
6 | Rest | 3 m run | 5 m run | 3 m run | Rest | 7 | cross |
This is what it really looked like:
6 | Rest | 3 m run | 5 m run | 3 m run | Rest | Nothing | B-Day! |
As you can see, the week started GREAT! The follow through on the weekend wasn't quite as good. It's a pity - I thought this was going to be the first week that I would manage to pull off following "the plan. "
I spent the entire day at a campground with my son on Saturday. - His best friend held his birthday party up there and from 11:30-9:30 the kids had more fun than a barrel of monkeys! As we drove home, my son and I were talking - we had planned on doing the 5k at the Spiediefest together on Sunday. He asked if we could stay home and have a special breakfast as a family for his birthday (Sunday my little boy turned NINE!)
So Sunday turned in to "Spend quality time with the Birthday Boy at home" -- Which is as it should be (since it is what he wanted.) We played "Bey-Blades," PS3, ate cake and food and had a great 'ole time. I didn't exactly meet my running goals - but it was a "Drop-back" week of only 7 miles, and we have to keep what is important in sight. Did I miss running a road-race? Certainly. But would I have missed my son's "Special Family Breakfast" more? Absolutely!
As a bonus - my Achilles is feeling GREAT! We will see how tight it is when I hit the road tomorrow!
We WON'T be discussing this weekend's diet or any weight gain/loss for the week.
