Another week completed and I am feeling good.  The seven miles felt good.  The weather was great.  I did run up some big hills on the run. (I had to walk a bit!) Even with the walking though I am taking time off of all of my runs!

I got new socks this week!  I have just been wearing whatever socks I pull out but after the 7 miles I could feel that I was getting some blisters on the arches of my feet so I went and got some socks.  I had a credit at the running store which was even better.  I wore them today on my 3 mile run and they felt great!

Next week the weather looks okay but COLD!!!  I know that it is going to be hard to drag myself out of bed this week but I will be needing too because Dave is out three nights again to it looks like morning cold running is in store for me!!!!

Here is week 6:

Tuesday: Rest
Wednesday: 4 Miles
Thursday: 2 Miles
Friday: 4 Miles
Saturday: Rest...but I might need to do my long run on Saturday because we are going to the casino on Saturday night so I am not sure if I am going to want to run my 8 miles after a night out.  I will see how I am feeling from the weekday runs. 
Sunday: 8 Miles
Monday: 3 Miles

My newest dilemma...how to carry my iphone for the half in Disney!  I have never carried my phone with me because I have an ipod touch and that is all I ever needed but in Disney I am going to want to take pictures so I want to carry my iphone.  When I went to the running store I looked for an arm band...no good!  It didn't get tight enough, it was hard to get the phone in and out and it seemed so annoying.  I tried a pouch thing that I got for XMas...but it is no good.  It was bouncing all over the place and at one put I was moving it and it fell right off!  So I am doing some research to figure it out!  I want to get it sooner than later because I need to first try it on a short run and then try it out on a long run.  I am thinking that I am going to get an ifitness belt and a spibelt.  I am off to do some more research on both so I can order one!

Do you carry a phone with you when you run?  How do you carry it?  Any advice??
