Weekly Recap: Enjoying the Journey (1/28-2/3)

I’m training for absolutely nothing right now. Nothing. I have no set schedule (other than one that’s self-imposed), I have no idea when my next race will be, and I’m not exactly sure where I’m going. And I am thoroughly enjoying it.

Weekly Recap: Fall 2018 Half Marathon Training - Week 7 (10/22-10/28)

We finally saw some fall weather here in the swampy south. Temps actually dipped into the 50s (lows, highs still in the 70s), so I ended up with some decent runs (finally!).

So, last week wasn’t my most stellar week, and I’m a bit late to the weekly recap party. But I’m still moving along.

Weekly Recap: Fall 2018 Half Marathon Training - Week 3 (9/24-9/30)

I don’t even know what to say about this past week. I don’t know if it was allergies, current events, lack of sleep, or a combination of a bunch of things, but I felt awful last week.

Weekly Recap: The In-between

That's a wrap on my lollygagging before leaping into fall training. Last week marked the end of rebuilding and the beginning of fall training. It was a weird week, though.

Weekly Recap: Training Reboot Week 23 (8/27-9/2)

So I went out three nights in a row this past week - nothing crazy, just out until about 10:30 and a glass or two of wine. And wow, did it wipe me out! A definite reminder that I am not 25 anymore.

Weekly Recap: Training Reboot Week 20 (8/6-8/12)

This week was one of those meh weeks. The ones between two slightly more exciting weeks, where I just got things done and got ready for the coming week.

Weekly Recap: Training Reboot Week 15 (7/2-7/8)

Weeks where a holiday happens in the middle just throw me off, so last week with the 4th on a Wednesday, I wasn't sure which way was up most of the week.

Weekly Recap: Training Reboot Week 14 (6/25-7/1)

Last week, my husband asked me why I run if I hate it so much. I suppose he thinks I hate it because I come back from most of my runs lately and say they were a ride on the hot and humid struggle bus.
