Today is My 5 Year Runaversary!

I can't believe it's been 5 years of running! I didn't run 5 miles today, but I did run 5 yesterday. You know that you are training right when  you won't  mess with your plan on your rest day!
So on this Wordless Wednesday I leave you with this...

Thursday Training Update

Another crazy week behind me! After Morgan and I came back from Orlando, I spent a lot of the next few days prepping for another trip!

Wednesday, I had a class with my trainer and she kicked my butt. This was the best pic I had, mostly because I had a meeting with the ladies from GOTR afterwards about coaching for the Fall season.

Thursday was spent packing and nursing a migraine I had all week. Friday was spent in the car. Not a great week for running.

Saturday we were in  Jersey and I ran a 5k with some friends and then the hubs and I walked around Asbury Park quite a bit. The 5k was fun but the weather was wonky so we skipped running any extra miles afterwards.

Sunday was the purpose for our trip: a surprise party for my MIL'S 70th birthday. There was much running around preparing and then a lot of dancing followed by a lot of cleanup. 

Monday we traveled back home.

Tuesday I ran 5 miles. It was meant to be for the Rock n Roll Virtual Run but I forgot to charge my watch and then my phone freaked out so I had no proof of mileage. Well, other than my weary legs, and I can't really use those! In any case, week 4 of training has begun!

Because I was traveling on Monday, I did the 4 miles planned for that day on Wednesday and got my Drum Solo done! It was a hot sweaty mess of a run, and my legs were a little tired, but I got it done!

Not a terrible week! I'm looking forward to the rest of this week because it involves Country Heat! Check it out at http://www.beachbodycoach.com/esuite/home/barkingmad

Wordless Wednesday

Medal Monday

No medals were given to participants at my 5k this weekend, but I did arrive home to some fun mail!

Sea Girt 5k Recap..... sort of....

A quick trip to Jersey to drop off my daughter for college must include a quick 5k with my Jersey running friends. It was hot and humid, and my girls have just started their training, so we took it super easy today. We just talked and laughed and sort of ran. It was perfection.
Afterwards, we branched and then the hubs and I visited Asbury Park for some cupcakes and a hot pretzel.
Perfect day!

Flat Mama Friday

Tomorrow morning is the 25th Annual Sea Girt 5k! I get to run with some of my Jersey friends and then a few of us will run 4 more miles afterwards.
Super excited!
