#rcjune2020

Highest mileage week in a long time- I pushed my long run last week to Saturday, so I had an 8 mile Saturday, 4 miles Monday, another 8 on Wednesday, and 3 today! We have had unseasonably cool weather most of the week, which I’d be sad about if the pool was open... but it’s not, so it’s been absolutely gorgeous for running. Mornings in the mid 50s, and not nearly as horrendously humid as it has been. It did pour pretty much the whole run today, but it was the best kid of running in the rain.

I did get to try out new shoes this morning, since I realized I’ve run in my Nikes for every single run since like February? And I couldn’t figure out why my knees and hips were starting to hurt again. When in doubt, new shoes! They’re super bright, but I’m surprised at how much I like them.

Another day another run I didn’t post until now 🙈😂

Very humid, very warm track workout this morning! 8x400m at a hard pace (I ran mine at 8:55-9:10). I almost quit after 6 repeats because the sun hit full force and I was so hot, BUT I pushed through and finished (although I walked my recovery time instead of jogging) and I’m super proud of myself!

It’s Global Running Day today but it’s also 100° and humid sooooo here’s a photo from my 8 miles on Monday instead!

Wowza today was long and exhausting, even though I was pretty much online from 8:30-4:30. I did sneak in an early run before it hit 90° although it was still toasty.

My two remaining kiddos had book club for our second to last class today- they picked Educated for the book, which I’m rereading alongside them! It was a fantastic hour and a half of discussion. Honestly it was one of the best days we’ve had of distance learning.

Morning miles with post-run coffee. Humid hot and more humid but I did it! Had brunch with some co-workers after and then some Shake Shack for dinner 🍔 🍟.

Getting back into the running thing! 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻

It’s been rough getting back with the intense heat and humidity that’s been going on. Summer really hit hard already.
