8 Mile Run

Slow pace today. I was aiming for 7 but got to 4 and felt good, so I decided to get in an extra mile. My mind needed the extra time on the road, too.

3 mile Run

Back home visiting my parents. It’s cold here 🙃

Today was supposed to be 7 miles, but I didn’t fuel right and had no energy. Will try again Wednesday.

5 Mile Run - easy pace

I had a route planned but wasn’t sure I’d be able to run the whole thing. Surprised myself that I did! Lovely overcast, drizzly day. ☺️

Was trying some new frames; wanted to switch it up. I liked these a lot. They’re different from what I usually gravitate to. But…something was familiar about them. 🤔

Tell me- Why do I look like the old man from Pixar’s short film that precedes A Bugs Life?! 🤣

2x2 Mile Interval Run

I tried to keep the interval pace at 11:00 min/miles. First one was spot on, but the second one not so much. I guess I ran out of gas.

I got pretty down and upset with myself. I let things I can’t change affect me mentally and that threw off my workout routine for about a month. But then I reminded myself that I have to be somewhere in order to improve, and with consistency, I can do that. It’s going to be okay. We keep pushing.

I’m trying

Half marathon in April, and I’m working the mileage back up. I was supposed to be in a better place by now, but we can only pull from what we have in the moment. I’ll get there.

3 Mile Run

My “choose strong” hat arrived today! Gave me the extra push to get myself outside.

I’m still here, friends. Going through some life stuff right now, but trying to keep up some semblance of a routine. Doing what I can.

4 Mile Treadmill Run

I had to split it up into two sessions because the treadmill setting I used stopped the workout just before 30 minutes for a cooldown and I had to restart. I’ve always been annoyed with default sessions. I’ll stop you when I’m good and ready, machine. 😤

A storm was rolling through- rain, big waves, and crazy winds. I got quite the view from my spot in the hotel gym. A few people were brave and tried to enjoy the hot tub, but soon vacated when the rain picked up.

Long Run Day: 7 Slowww Miles

It was a hot one out. Luckily there were some shaded places. I did a considerable amount of walking, but got the miles in.

I saw some goats and lots of scenic views.

Yesterday, we took a drive along the northern part of the island, and did some mini hikes along the way. Very tired when we got back, but it was a great way to see more of what’s out here.

Today we

Drove to the top of Mauna Kea!

We made several stops to make sure we didn���t get elevation sickness. At half way or more, we stopped to hike out a short way to crater Lake Waiau. We felt that elevation. 😳

It was otherworldly up there, and quite stunning.

3 mile run on vacation ☺️

It’s beautiful on the big island, but very hot! Oahu has a warmer temp, but Hawai’i island has a greater UV index. I think it’s time for some reading poolside!

2x 1 mile intervals

I gave it my all, and I felt strong for doing it, but I didn’t quite reach my pace goal for this one.

Pace target: between 08:50-0905

Pace ran: 9:38 🤷🏼‍♀️

I’m not worried about it- I’ll get there.

New Year’s Eve Run into

Golden Hour

Ran 8 casual miles this evening, and I stopped to enjoy the view along the way. I saw some mongeese, lots of happy birds, beautiful flowers, a rooster yelling at me from above in a tree, and several lovely lounging cats. I also watched a beautiful sunset, and spied a few early fireworks across the loch.

5 mile hilly Run

I always feel super strong when I do this route. I remember how hard it used to be for me, and now I crush it. I’m so thankful.

Progress is so empowering! Never forget where you used to be, so you can understand how far you’ve come.

Gym Session ✔️

Light weights but a lot of reps this time. Feels good to get back into it.

3 Miles for Time! 🏃🏼‍♀️

I knocked two minutes off the last 3 mile test I did in October. 🤗

Also, WHAT happened to that weekend?? I was really looking forward to three lovely days off and before I knew it, I was getting up for work again?! What the heck! Here’s hoping this week will be better than the last one.

Beautiful Day ☀️

The house is all ready for our party tonight. Only a few more things to bake before guests arrive later, so I went out and got a few easy miles in before consuming my weight in tasty food, treats, and homemade sangria. 😋

New running/lifting plan starts Monday! I’m excited to pick up the weights again.
