Hey there and happy Monday! Let’s recap some miles and smiles from last week, shall we? I’m ramping things back up for a fun spring filled with race fun! Right now I have a trail marathon as well as another ULTRA on the horizon. I definitely can’t wait for some springtime running! Spring without a doubt my most favorite time of year to ramp things up and get it in.
Let’s see how it all went down!
Monday- 4.22 miles just getting the legs moving again after the weekend of running. I’ve been moving my rest days to Sundays now and that has really worked out. It definitely has helped with recovery and makes me really want to get going with the busy week ahead full of running + teaching classes at the gym.
Tuesday AM- Last week it was a bit gloomy most of the week as well as chilly so I did some lunch running in the sunshine. 4.31 miles and finished feeling strong.
Tuesday PM- 2.23 miles after teaching class at the gym. Pretty uneventful just getting in a bit of a double run day. I really did feel stronger though pace wise this week after my ultra trail race. Those races usually leave me feeling wrecked for a while especially with all of the rocks, roots and climbing. But glad I recovered fairly fast.
Wednesday- 5.30 miles after work. Dark and gloomy out still but it got done.
Thursday AM- 5.32 miles in the morning when the sun finally decided it wanted to come out to play. It ended up being a gorgeous morning. Sunrise runs = happy Chelsea.
Thursday PM- 2.05 miles after teaching spin. A bit of a cool down run and then double run day miles for the day.
Friday- 7.11 relaxed miles before long run Saturday. This sky was quite lovely.
Saturday- 20.21 miles to kick off the weekend! I ran with a few faster folks too so got some solid miles in. Definitely pumped me up…still got it I guess.
Sunday- REST DAY. A much needed one after a long week.
And there you have it!
How’s your running going?! Any spring races coming up?
Running a half marathon March 1st! One City in Newport News, VA.
Oh I love it!! I have very fond memories of Newport News– I went to college at Hampton Univ. 🙂 Best of luck to you and have fun!
Oh, yay! HU is such a beautiful campus! I grew up in Newport News, and I went to church in downtown Hampton!
Yay!! So awesome! I definitely miss my home by the sea 🙂 🙂
I can relate. I’m in Richmond now. I didn’t love living here until I started running! Now I spend a fair amount of time by the James River. It helps!
