13 weeks down – 10 weeks to go!
Ground Running - 15 miles (longest run 5 miles + 60 min deep water run)
Deep Water Running -90 min
Walking – 5 hours
6 days until the Diva 1/2 marathon!
This week friends start flying in to run this all-female race through a beautiful and historic city. (Did you know that San Juan is the oldest city under the US Flag?) I am so happy to have some of my Arkansas running buddies in town – I am hoping that they bring some good running vibes with them. My left heel/foot has been unpredictable and my success next Sunday will rely on whether my foot decides to join the party or fight the fun. My plan for this week is to avoid aggravation - I will stick with the elliptical trainer, strength training and the pool.
Of course I will snap shots along the route – but here is a preview of sights to be seen around Old San Juan:
The Forts
Kites at El Morro
The Governor’s Mansion
The colorful architecture
The locals
The churches
The coastline
Even if my legs don’t want to cooperate, it is sure to be a beautiful morning!
