Hello and happiest of Mondays to you! The sun is finally shining again here in Dallas (we had some chilly winter like weather over the weekend) and I could not be happier! Of course it is springtime so that could change in the blink of an eye. But I shall enjoy it while it lasts!
Last week I was able to get in 73.7 miles of running!! It was a great week for sure. Let’s recap and see how it all went down.
Monday AM- 8.32 early morning miles watching the sunrise. Best way to start the work week and puts so much energy into my Monday.
Monday PM- 3.22 miles after teaching a spin class. Just wearing the legs out a bit with the double run day training.
Tuesday AM- 10.26 miles with the breakfast run club. Lots and lots of humidity.
Tuesday PM- 2.32 miles with some strides thrown in after the gym. I had a stray dog chasing me there for a bit which was also fun.
Wednesday AM- 8.32 hump day miles, just rocking out to my jams on the lake.
Wednesday PM- 3.23 miles before wine Wednesday with my ladies.
Thursday- 6.32 miles again solo, slept in a bit and got it done.
Friday- Run streak week!! Running on my rest day is always fun. 8.35 miles done.
Saturday- Saturday morning I made the trek out to Madill, Oklahoma for the Danman Challenge! I actually decided to run the half marathon on this day, due to the fact that we had some freakish sleet/ice/rain that morning! The ground was completely saturated but made for a muddy good time. So I got my run on and then got my EAT on. You simply cannot beat a FREE non competitive trail race, FREE food and lovely time on the ranch. I was so glad I made it out for some trail running with my buds despite the nasty unexpected weather and freezing temperatures.
And here is a pic of said delicious eats…I actually told my mama who wants to come do the race with me next year…just for the eats afterwards. Ha.
Sunday- Back out on the roads! 10.15 miles in my happy place. It was nice and quiet miles and actually the 2nd time I had a dog chase me! I am not sure what it is with dogs off of leashes these days? I think this little dog was actually lost but it owner came and got him thankfully. He was a sweet dog though so he ran with me for a little bit. But I always love this view running through the canals.
And there you have it!
How was your weekend? Did you eat any yummy food!?
You can’t beat some delicious post trail run BBQ.
Really interesting reading about your running & delicious eats!
Thanks for visiting and reading!!
I did no training runs this weekend. Instead I officiated 8 soccer matches. So I still managed 48 miles over 3 days!
Awesome work! Have a great week!!
That food looks amazing! I’d have to get rid of that pickle though. They are my least favorite food in the world.
Hilarious!! It was soooo delicious!!
DanMan was great and I completed my first half.
YAYY!!! I’m glad you enjoyed it! Hope to see you next year! Love the trail community!
Great running week! Off leash dogs are one of my biggest pet peeves!!!
For sure!! It is the worst!
I want that view and the free trail race!!!
It was incredible!
