Weekly workouts - Take 1

I have been working on this post for 3 weeks, and I still haven't managed to get it up.
A better run - Not Friday

I have officially decided to do another half marathon in the fall, and some friends have bullied me convinced me to do a triathlon some time before the end of the year. Since I'm a sucker that can't back away from a challenge, I'm sure I'll be doing a tri before year end. All you need to say is "I really don't think you can do that" and off I go.  Not one of my better qualities.

I need to track my mileage and workouts to make sure I don't die during all of this training, but some how the chaos of day-to-day life prevents me from thinking like a human and writing stuff down. I have been running and doing yoga, contrary to what I have posted on here. Since the tri piece is coming into play, I've started swimming. That's a whole separate blog in itself. Lets just say, I'm not winning any award any time soon. I look more like a flailing porpoise in the water.  Good thing is I have a decent baseline to start off.

The way my life works is, if it doesn't get written down.... I don't remember it. So here is how my week went.

Friday's motto
Saturday - 1 hour yoga with my fave yogi and 350m swim
Sunday - 18 holes of chase ball golf
Monday - 9 holes of chase ball golf and 4.5 mile run
Tuesday - off
Wednesday - 3.5 mile run
Thursday- 8th grade graduation. On my feet for 6 hours. That counts for something, right?
Friday- 3 mile run, dry heaved, and walk for 1 in 94 F heat. (I am not heat ready, and that's a bad thing when you live in Houston)

So my plan is to update regularly on my weekly workouts to keep myself on track at least for my half in the fall. Feel free to leave comments on your workouts and how you're handling the summer heat.
