Hi there! Hope you are having a great Monday so far. Let’s recap some miles, shall we?! I was able to get in a little over 80 miles of running last week! Let’s see how it all went down.
Monday AM- 7.11 lunchtime miles. I am enjoying the sunshine breaks on my lunch break. It was the most perfect day to be out and about. Still pretty tired from the runs over the weekend but I managed to get it all in.
Monday PM- 3.02 miles before teaching class at the gym. I needed a bit of an energy boost after a long day at the 9 to 5.
Tuesday AM- 10.06 miles after the early morning rain. It definitely cooled things off a bit and we had a nice sunrise.
Tuesday PM- 3.21 miles in the evening around the lake. Love running along the lake path.
Wednesday AM- Another 7.11 miles on hump day. Loving me some lunchtime runs lately.
Wednesday PM- 4.05 miles because I had time to kill in the afternoon since I wasn’t teaching a class.
Thursday AM- Back with my run club! IRC run and then some. I started this run early and then met up with the club. 11.2 miles done.
Thursday PM- Got off work a tad early, more time to kill. Running is clearly my happy hour. 4.31 miles in the PM.
Friday- Running on my rest day. 5.11 miles before kind of a crazy work day.
Saturday- 16.11 morning miles before a busy Saturday.
Went to the fair with my homegirl Natalie. It is our fall tradition. So much fun and so many people! But we had a great time people watching.
Sunday AM- 5.12 trail miles for breakfast. Love my trail run crew. They are like my 2nd family.
Sunday PM- 4.22 miles after taking a nap and straight chillin. Beautiful miles in the city loving the sunshine.
Oh and I finally made a trip to Trader Joe’s for my fall harvest blend tea. Hallelujah. The holiday tea collection begins. Now I need some Christmas tea.
And there you have it!
How was your weekend? What is your favorite fall/Christmas/holiday beverage?

my favorite fall/winter is Hot chocolate but special made with Chocolate Cortez is so good… and rich…
Sounds yummy!!
I’m amazed by how many miles you are able to get in. You may be inspiring me to up my mileage a bit, even though I am currently not training for anything in particular.
Be sure to build slowly and enjoy those miles!!
I love fall/winter beers. There are SO many to try these days. They keep me busy.
LOL @ they keep you busy. I have yet to try a pumpkin beer this year!! Last year I found a pumpkin cider and it was so incredibly yummy. Must track it down again this year.
Best pumpkin beer I’ve had so far was actually Sam Adams 20 pounds of pumpkin. Yummmmmm!
I love that you don’t always have I ran 25 miles, day after day after day. Makes it more real and awesome to see that you are someone who balances it all out.
LOL well if I did not have a J-O-B I’d love to simply run for hours a day! That’s where doubles come in. 😉 *evil laughter*
Hmmm I may need to add to my tea stash! How do run on your lunch hour? I would love to, but don’t know if I have time to run and shower???
So funny I keep getting this question. I should probably preface every time I post that I run at lunch that I work across the street from the gym that I teach at. So quick rinse, go back to work, boom. I know not everyone is as fortunate. 😉 It’s a blessing really!
Oh that is awesomely convenient! I was just talking about doing this with my friend Lyndsay at lunch but we work halfway up a hill, so you are always going up and down and with only 44 minutes, i just don’t think I’m going to make it happen:( The sunshine today is making me want to be out there though!
Yeah I mean however you can get it in love! Happy running!
Glad you had fun at the fair.
I love pumpkin spice lattes, but order them half sweet.
I can’t drink the lattes, but I love the idea of a PSL in the fall!! I drink typically just drink a coffee, and ask them for a pump or two of syrup, less calories. You’re welcome.
Rest and recovery for me this past weekend!! I’m not a hot tea drinker, but maybe I need to give it a try!!
Sounds good love! Yeah you’d like the tea, it’s a nice alternative to calorie bomb Starbucks drinks for sure 😜
