I've been having a stressful two weeks lately and so I apologize for my absence. Training last week was less than fun, but I muddled through it and managed to survive. In the middle of training I found out one of my coworkers had accepted a new job and so we're all doing the who's-going-to-be-taking-over-what shuffle. And I'm sad to see her go.

So things have been kind of nuts.

In workout news, last week when I was in training, absolutely none happened, unless you count the 15 minutes of ab work I did on Monday when I had the motivation and was still trying to make the effort to get something in.

I got back to it this week though. I attempted to do my speed work Tuesday night, but I'm not really sure one could call what 6 miles that I did any form of speed work. I had planned on doing intervals, but my legs were having none of it. So then I figured I'd do a tempo run, but my legs weren't so keen on that either. So I did 6 miles of alternating speeds on the dreadmill, trying to push it when I could.

Last night I taught yoga. I thought it was a crappy class because mentally, I was not there. I was so seriously distracted thinking about other stuff that I've got going on. In fact at the end of June, I'm actually going to be dropping one of my yoga classes because I've just got a little too much on my plate right now.

Last night I was determined to drop both of them at least for the rest of the summer, but I think I've reconsidered and I'll keep one of them through July and then re-evaluate. I may be writing a little less regularly over the next few days and weeks, but I'll keep trying to stay caught up with you guys, although my comments may be a little less frequent. I'm not however going to be taking a blogging sabbatical like soooome people.

Anyway, just wanted to check in and let you know I'm back on the training wagon. I'd love to get some outside runs in if the rain would go away. Seriously, I think it's been raining for like two weeks straight.
