10K down 10 miles to go......(Kelly)

Last weekend Jenn and I completed our longest run for both of us ever and we did it together.  We ran a 10K(6.2miles) out in Ambler and we did it in 1:07 - not too bad for our first time running that distance.   It was a good run , the weather was nice and the turnout was good too.  Gotta get a few more long runs in before our 10 miles on May 1st but I feel good that we will be ready to do it.  

The weather seems like it is finally going to get nicer and hopefully stay nicer (after tomorrow) so getting more running in should be easier.  I gotta get my cycling in too - I love to ride and it's a great alternative to working different parts of your leg muscles compared to running. 

My ankles have been on the sore side a lot lately and I need to get that checked out but I think I'll wait till after the Broad St run - - in the meantime I've been taping them up and that seems to work out good.  I tried this new tape on Sat called KT Tape - it's pretty cool and worked well (I just gotta get better at putting it on )  - - Check it out - you can use it just about everywhere and it comes in some cool colors.  Jenn used it on her knee and elbow.

Well gotta get ready to leave work and head to Jenn's to get a night run in......
