Moving with Purpose

Humidity and bugs 🐛. Thursday run done while the teen is out playing with friends. Today we run for with USA Racing LLC - Teal Diva supports women affected by gynecologic cancer. ❣️ I know a few myself who have been effected. This is your reminder to get yourself checked regularly!

I could not believe I woke up with my legs feeling fine, no soreness… meaning I was capable of getting in my final August milage to get me over 100! My first ever! I do think i need some rest now though. My stomach still not back to 100%. My neck and shoulders are pretty bad right now but the Chiropractor first thing this morning helped. Need to probably go back to PT. I do want to do brookfield classic still on 9/19 but part of me feels i should lay off for September. We will see I guess.

I am not sure what to say except this race was one of the hardest Ive done. And it was well over a half marathon! This was one and done and on to the next! The last three miles were brutal. My stomach hurt so bad and it was mostly up hill. No clue how people do that course twice for the marathon but they are beasts!!. If it wasnt for Bridgid Bibbens I am not sure I would have gotten through that second half. It was a blessing that (a) you were there and (b) we were able to catch up to each other. Thank you for your company and the push to get me thru it! ❣️Despite how hard it was, trail running is still top tier! ❣️

Jens last long run before her half and an easy shakeout run before my half in the trails tomorrow morning. Also first time running in just a sports bra… it was kind of freeing. Thanks Jen❣️

3 ish miles with negative splits. What is up with all the bugs!? Its gross. Ive also officially broken my highest monthly miles record and on my way to my first month of 100 miles. Lets go🔥 Miles & Macros, LLC

Went to speedwork but just did an easy base run. Right calf just started feeling better from Saturday and since I have a trail half marathon Sunday it was best to go easy.

Today I was competing with myself to beat my 3 lap times and overall times from last year. In the process not only did I beat my laps and overall times by 20 minutes but I also managed to bring home 2nd place overall female. Great morning in the trails with Friends!

An easy 30 today before Fellows Frolick 3 hr in the morning. My chest hurt some. I tried to see if I could run slow enough to get zone 2. Didn’t happen to hot. I got about 5 min in zone 2 and 6 min in zone 3. Half the run was running Noahs walking pace as I picked him up by foot at his friends house.

Speedwork Wednesday with Miles & Macros, LLC . 3x 1000/600. Ouch.

Today I didn’t want to run but I did anyways bc my brain needed it. Ended it with negative splits.
