Training: wind = hills? (maybe.)

There might not be any “hills” in OK City, but wind training is just as fierce…even the trees get angry and actually grow north.

Speaking of wind, in my spare time (wait - what’s that?), I plan on cross-training by developing my windsurfing ability. As you can see from the guy in the pic sailing high, OKC is the place to be for that. This guy must have some strong core muscles…

The OK state tree = redbud, and they’re lookin’ mighty fine on my outdoor training routes as of late.

Stephen (my hubby) & I ran in the 10K Redbud Classic last weekend. It felt like we were actually inside a tornado. (For the record, my name isn’t Dorothy, & I didn’t sing “Over the Rainbow” before the race.) It was a hard effort, yet not-so-swift time. I beat him, so I’m declaring victory and moving on…but we’ll call it even since he can destroy me in physics equations.

You’d better believe that next week, my post will be about the 8 X 100s max effort in the pool…alone. (That is criminal, Sean.)

…but for now, Happy Easter!
