Don’t forget the Personal Savers giveaway ends Sunday night at 8PM CST!
Well, August is certainly here. It started getting extra warm this week. I know I live in Texas, it’s hot here. It’s even hot at 5AM.
I decided this week was rest week. It’s my last week before marathon training begins and I took advantage of it. I still ran and got some workouts in, but took a few extra days off. Most importantly, I took today off. It’s weird. I can’t remember the last time I didn’t get up early to run on Saturday, unless it was a race weekend.
Marathon training will consist of one extra day of running for me and 1-2 days of cross training. Rest day always on Friday.
Training this week:
Sunday: Swim
Monday: Rest
Tuesday: Run 5 miles, 9:55 pace
Wednesday: Rest
Thursday: Run 4.78 miles, 10:00 pace
Friday: Gym day, weights and cardio
Saturday: Rest Day! My last Saturday to rest until after December 8!
I ordered a 2nd pair of my favorite Asics, the Gel Cumulus, to start breaking in. My current pair has about 115 miles on them, but they won’t last til December. The first pair has close to 400. They are my back-up to my back-up pair now.
I love the purple!
4.78 miles on Tuesday. Yes that’s 80 degrees at 5:59AM!
Gym on Friday for cardio and weights. Broke in my new Girls Gone Sporty tank. I love it!
And this week my Moms Runs this Town chapter posted all our before & after pictures and I loved seeing them all! It’s so motivating to know everyone is on the same journey, even if at a different stage. I needed a reminder this week of my goals. I have lost sight of them.
Here’s mine.
Today is girls day with Ally, my best friend and her daughter. Going to do a little shopping, a little make-up buying and dinner. The girls are going into 6th grade (yikes) and I guess it’s time for make-up!
Hope you all have a great weekend!
Anyone racing?
How old were you when you started wearing make-up? What about your daughter?
Let us run with endurance the race God has set before us. Hebrews 12:1
