Happy Monday to ya! I am taking a bit of a break from quarantine and chill to share last week’s miles with ya! I have been maintaining what I would like to call ‘sanity miles’ during this time of canceled and postponed races. I’ve thought about doing some virtual races but of course my 36 mile birthday run is in April. If you’re new to my blog you can catch up on me running my age here. And here. And here!! Yes, so happy birthday month to me in a couple of days.
Let’s see how last week’s running went down!
Monday- I actually took PTO time from work on this day to catch up on cleaning and such around the house. So this rest day was quite lovely. I honestly do feel like I should get some workout points for the spring cleaning though. Cuz that can be quite the calorie burner.
Tuesday- 7.13 miles in the evening doing some people watching. I actually ended up thinking I locked my keys in my car this day when in reality I DROPPED them during the run. Went back along the same route (Tuesday and Wednesday) looking for them. No dice. So yeah. Had to get the car key re-made (I already used the spare). Not super happy about that. But hey it happens and life goes on.
Wednesday- 4.22 miles on a very balmy day. Found some shade to make it all better.
Thursday- 10.03 miles after work which was absolutely lovely. Kinda on purpose got lost on this run and found a great route with a few rolling hills.
Friday- 7.22 miles with a faster finish. Needed that.
Saturday- 12.03 mile run in the hood. Just relaxed miles enjoying the view.
Sunday- REST DAY. Compression socks and wine for the win.
And there you have it!
How was your weekend? What did you do?!
I’ve been staying in touch with a lot of folks via video chats and such. I talked to my best college girlfriend (who lives in Maryland) for almost 2 hours Saturday.
I can’t remember the last time I ran 10 after work. That takes dedication. 🙂
LOL thanks!
So how many miles will you run this year for your birthday? just kidding. I looked at your last year post already. I tried to run my birthday mile last year too after reading your blog but gave up. Ended up with doing a 50K, and called it a day.
36 – I think it is mentioned in this blog post also. One day perhaps I’ll just bike my age instead of running it 😉 Have a great week and be well!
