POTM Tuesday Check In

Running

16 Nov

Hello! Happy Tuesday! And Happy week 3 of Pile on the Miles!! How’s it going? I stalled on my run because it was so windy and more importantly, I was lazy. But finally bit the bullet and went for it. Yesterday was my first run since the marathon that felt good. I need that!

That Palm Springs air must have been good for me! It was definitely good for my soul.

I spend a little quality time with my cat Vegas before hitting the pavement this morning. He’s my only friend.

Run –  today I did 1 mile warm up, 3 speedy and a cool down.

I feel like I’m finally back to myself a little bit= Okay runner. Redhead. Hungry. Thinks she’s funny. Likes dogs and cats. Hungry. Blogger.

Post run fuel was random… leftover yogurt with nuts and cereal. Then, a salad.

I also made a skinny pumpkin pie. I like eating pie warm – anyone else??

    I’m failing to check in most of the time, but I am not failing to succeed in my goals 🙂

    I did a speed workout last night. It was only 40 minutes but I was worked out for sure. I am super disciplined to do long runs without much coaxing but oh man, a short speed workout is really hard for me.

    Basically, I’m thrilled with myself for finally doing it!!!
