Slacker Update

I've been slacking so hard lately.  I do better when I have my training plan written out so I know I have to do however many miles that day or what type of cross or strength training I'm doing that day. Last night I sat down and wrote out my miles and strength training days for 19 WEEKS.  That will take me to October 16 which is my 4th half marathon.  No more slacking!  If Adam has to work I'll be taking the girls to the gym with me.  I'm determined to get a PR this year.  Anyway, here's a recap of my last few runs.

I went to the gym and decided to go all out on the dreadmill.  I busted out 1 mile in 7:44.  Not my fastest ever but it was my fastest mile since my second daughter was born last June.  I don't like treadmills but it's better than nothing.  Then I did half of a workout because the childcare lady came to get me because my baby was having a meltdown. 😩

I got 2 miles in and it was SO hot that day.  It was sticky and gross.  I also didn't get to run until about 1:30pm (hot as balls!)  I didn't do too bad, though.  I was happy with my pace considering.  👍

Today's run was also hot as balls.  I slapped on sunblock before heading out around 9:45am.  The temp was 80 degrees, humidity was around 60%, and the UV rating was 10 out of 10.  Yuck!  First mile felt awesome.  Second mile I was starting to get really hot.  Mile 3 I rode the struggle bus the whole time but I made it.  💪 

Do you see that sweet mullet type hair sticking out of my hat? 😂  I'm growing it out and it's in an awkward stage.  Lol.  Anyway, I'll be posting almost daily during my training.  It helps keep me motivated!  I'm going to do an update when I'm around 1 year postpartum which will be in 2 weeks or so.  See you tomorrow!
