Thank Goodness it’s Friday!!
For a short week (due to holidays) it sure felt like a long one — does that make sense? While I was pretty pleased with myself for keeping up with my training plan while on vacation last week, tired legs definitely caught up with me this week! For what ever reason each run this week my legs felt like dead weight – this morning was suppose to be 6 miles with 4 at tempo pace. Well there wasn’t much tempo, but I did push through the overwhelming urge at mile 3 to cut the run short and finished the 6 in just over an hour. Those were some long miles! But I’m trying to focus on what’s working, right? So the big plus was that I stayed with it even when I was so sure I couldn’t take another step!
Sending big shout outs to:
- Amanda at MissZippy for her half marathon this weekend
- Molly at I’m a Sleeper Baker who taking on 26.2 on Sunday
- anyone else who’s toeing the line this weekend to take on a race! Good luck!!
- and, Claudia at ..and so I ran for being so sweet to pass on the Cherry on Top Award to me
So with this award I’m suppose to pass this on to 6 people and answer the question: “If you had one chance to go back and change one thing in your life, would you and what would it be?”
I believe everything that has happened in my life up til now has helped to make me the person that I am – and I good with that. I was an athlete in college and do wish I had more consistently stayed on top of my fitness over the years…but I’m doing it now so I guess that’s what counts, right?
Passing this on to:
- Kathy at Sea Glass and Heart Stones
- Erica at I Run Because…I Can
- Christina at Momma of 3 on the Run
- Paige at Two Runners and a Brown Dog
- Amanda at Run to the Finish
- Christina at Lace it Up and Run
