Hey there! Happiest of Mondays to you. I started my morning with a 10k in the ‘hood. Hello absolutely gorgeous running weather. 69 degrees with a nice breeze and sunshine. We are still highs in the 90s today so I was happy to get up and get it done.
This is actually part 1 though of my runs today. I’ll let you know how it goes tonight. I plan on finding some nice shade.
So let’s do some weekend recapping…shall we? My Saturday started out with 15 miles…glorious miles indeed. I have not seen the number 8 in front of a long run (pace wise) in a minute. I am hoping all of this speedwork and hills that I’ve been doing is finally starting to pay off.
We had a good turnout too for the IRC Saturday run – part of which was in the rain. Way to get it done crew!
Saturday night I went out with my girl Natalie for some karaoke and grub. Good times with my homegirl and friends.
Sunday was kind of a bit of a sleep in day…but I managed to roll out of bed after a fun late night for 8 miles at 7:45 a.m. with my homegirl Tracy. We always have fun girl talk while running. That is absolutely the best.
Then I went to a comedy show later with my mama in Addison. Rickey Smiley absolutely has me rolling- he is just so funny. You must go see him live if you can. I also love his radio show which is based out of Atlanta.
And I’m ready to rock the work week after getting in a little over 56 miles of training last week. It was nice little cutback week and my body is feeling good and ready to build it up again.
Have a great week!
How was your weekend? Did you do anything fun with friends and/or fam?
56 miles last week…woah! This weekend was all about family time: farmer’s market and outdoors biking/walking with our kids.
Oh the farmers market! I miss going to the one out here. Sounds marvelous!!
Sounds fun! 69 degrees is the perfect running temp.
Rickey Smiley is very funny. I’ve heard his radio show a few times.
It was 90 for tonight’s run! But yeah 69 degrees was absolutely glorious this a.m.!! Very cool u know about Rickey all the way up in Canada! Ha!!!
It was oddly hot here this weekend but tonight’s run was in the low 60’s- I was freezing! 7:45 is sleeping in??!
LOL right?! I’m a grandma girl, you should know this by now!
Your training is on point girl!!!! AMAZING! PS your mama is a beauty; just like YOU!
Aw thanks Rachel!!
