Thursday Rambles

Where has this week gone?  I worked Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and today.  I am sure glad I am off tomorrow.  Working inpatient acute rehab is exhausting.

Peyton feels the same way.



Augie is Peyton's shadow.  She does everything Peyton does.









My running has really fallen by the wayside.  I managed a 6 mile run (51:27)Tuesday and a 5 miler (40:37) today.  I am going to get back on track starting tomorrow.  This is my only 4 day work week this summer, so the extra time will give me the boost I need to get back to training.

Speaking of running, I have signed up for a 10K on July 18.  It will be the second 10K I have ever done.  Short races are not my favorite because 1. I don't like to pay for a distance I easily manage on a training run and 2. Short races are hella hard.  I have some speed work at the track planned for the next few weeks and I'm hoping to place in my age group.



What race are you running next?

What's the best part of your summer so far?

  1. The best part of my summer has definitely been the lack of alarm clocks :) hooray having my first real summer break in YEARS!

  2. Hahah the first dog pictures KILLS me! I'm completely different...I hate longer runs and live for the short/fast runs. Anything over 6 miles and I want to kill someone (usually myself).

  4. I actually love running at 10K races these days.. I find they help me improve my speed and racing, plus I can recover from them pretty quickly. I think I'm addicted to them now..
