Last week I ran and then wrote a post on my phone, but it never published. Now I can't even access it on my phone. The post shows in the list and has a perpetual "publishing" next to it. That's all.

So I bought the C25K app so I can use it AND listen to music at the same time. It can't start the music from the app (it's supposed to but I always get the message that it can't) BUT I can open the music manually to play while the app is also running. (apparently the free app doesn't work that way)

Anyway I'm up to W4D2 and in the last 2 runs my left shin hurt a lot, right where  I had the stress fractures two years ago. There has been a lot of stress in my life lately. I've started applying for jobs and got a call for an interview. The guy wanted me to fly half-way across the country (not on my dime) for the interview with only a few days notice. We ended up settling on a VTC (tomorrow) instead. The job looks great from the small amt of info on the notice, but it would require us to move...again.

Thierry Sanchez has offered a kettlebell program for free (or was) at kratos.dk (here's the info: http://kettlebellfitnessdk.wordpress.com/2012/01/16/kettlebell-training-school-progressive-kettlebell-programs/) I wasn't 100% sure I was following instructions correctly to sign up--they're in Danish, but I did and the program is in English (the email it came in is also in Danish--maybe I should learn it, sounds fun!). I haven't started it yet, but it is basic and for beginners. After 4 weeks, as I understand, I should get Part 2 & so on. I don't know how long it lasts altogether, but I'm looking forward to it. I've also created a 10K training plan for the ABQ Half, 10K, 5K, Kids' K in April. I haven't registered for it yet; I plan to early next month.
