Hey there and happy Monday to ya! First Monday of 2020. Hope your year is off to a great start! Let’s recap some miles from last week!! I did my big run across DFW which got me some big weekly miles! Let’s see how it all went down.
Monday- 5.33 miles on my day off enjoying the sunshine! We’ve had some great days for running in the last week with chilly temps in the AM and sunshine! I’ve also been loving having a bit of an off season with my runs. I do have another ULTRA coming up so I’ve been working to keep the body strong but this was a good run for sure.
Tuesday- My 34.31 mile Cowtown to Dallas run! The recap is here if you are catching up. I really enjoyed this run and meeting new folks along the way. Legs were really feeling it after but I absolutely look forward to doing this one every year and seeing what my body is capable of.
Wednesday- Serious recovery miles. My body really was not feeling it but hey motion is lotion, baby! 3.03 miles done.
Thursday- The rest of the runs for the week were all mostly recovery/maintenance after Tuesday’s miles. The body did start feeling better though towards the end of the week. I was mostly just tired and wanted to get a TON of sleep which was lovely. 3.22 mile run Thursday after teaching my first spin class of the year.
Friday- 4.21 lunch miles. Picked up the pace a little towards the end. Weather was pure perfection.
Saturday- 12.02 miles on Saturday with the run club! It felt good to get back to doing some double digit miles for sure.
Sunday- REST DAY. Sushi Sunday vibes for the win.
And there you have it!
How was your weekend? Did you do any races or runs on New Year’s Eve?!

That DFW run sounds epic and such a fun idea! I’m glad you have a team that loves to do it with you. I’ve got a serious question, even though it sounds weird: Do you have to take a ton of showers throughout the week? I would love to do double-run days as I work on increasing my distance; but I probably wouldn’t have time for two showers every day. Do you have any tips or hacks for staying fresh?
YES. Hashtag the life of a fitness instructor. hahaha. How to stay fresh: TAKE A DAMN SHOWER. Wash your ass. 😉
That’s a pretty straight-forward way to do it! 😀
We had a 5k on New Year’s Day! That’ll keep people from overdoing it the night before, although the race didn’t start until 10:30. 🙂
Congrats on the 5k!
That’s amazing!
Thanks!!
Remind me of that Dallas – Fort Worth run next year. Looks like fun and I might see if I can crash it! Happy New Year!
haha I probably won’t remind you 🙂 You will need to remember FRITZ! 😉 Mark your calendar. See you soon!!
Great start to the year. That Cowtown run looks killer!
Oh it was a blast! Always is!!
