in 2 runs. \u00a0Isn’t that exciting? It is scary how exciting running a mile can feel, but it is great! \u00a0My knee still hurts a little but it seems to go away after a bit and hurts less when running on soft ground. \u00a0Both of the runs were piddly little ones from my house and were pretty much unexciting. \u00a0Except, the one morning I saw what could have been a kettle bell class on the grass along the Midtown Greenway.<\/p>\n

It has been easy to get these short runs in during the morning, but has been harder to keep up the other workouts. \u00a0Though I did do almost 83 miles on the bike. \u00a025 of that was a fairly hard ride on the Greenway <\/a>to the West ending up at Bryant Lake Regional Park and hitting some quality miles. \u00a0I averaged over 16 mph for the ride which did include some stop and go in the Hopkins area, plus getting a little lost and riding on some chipped limestone that was only a little above mountain bike trails (Lone Lake Park).<\/p>\n

I wasn’t able to make the group swim this week so I did 650 yards on my own at the YWCA on Friday. \u00a0I did them nice and slow. \u00a0I noticed that my form wasn’t as good during the slow parts, but I did a fast 50 towards the end and felt like my form improved considerably. \u00a0I guess that is similar to running, sometimes your best form is when you are running faster.<\/p>\n

We also went camping which was a relaxing way to end the week, though we only hiked a few flat miles on Sunday and survived some crazy Saturday night storms.<\/p>\n

Things are coming together nicely for the Ragnar Relay in a few weeks. \u00a0I guess I need to figure out how I want to promote my fundraising, if I’m still going to do it. \u00a0I know that the kids in Africa would appreciate clean water to drink, so I guess I better work on that!<\/p>\n

This week I’m teaching Bike Maintenance and Exploration!<\/p>\n

This week’s One Post<\/strong> is about the Midtown Greenway<\/a>.<\/p>\n
