Well, it is about that time again – Runfessions!! How is it already the END OF AUGUST?! This summer year is flying by…super fast! Like every month ends – let’s link up with Marcia and check out the other Runfessions for this month!!

I runfess…

I have not been really USING my training plan as of late a while now… I am having a better time just running to run and helping my running buddies maintain/improve their performance. With all of us being in different “running spaces” (a couple training for a 50K trail run, another improving on their half marathon time for this falls racing season, anther training for their first 10K), it is just easier to float around with my summer session weeks.

My only concern is keeping up my fitness for pacing half marathons this fall and my miles to try and reach 2,016 miles by the end of the year.

Don’t get me wrong, I miss some of my interval and hill workouts, but that is not my main focus at this time…

I will set my alarm WAY earlier than my morning run meet up so I can get a couple miles solo…mostly with the intention of getting some intervals or hills in…

..but I runfess…

…I am bad about getting up early enough to ACTUALLY get a full interval workout in before my morning run meet up… So, I am actually just getting a solid warm-up before starting the planned buddy run.

Which is great! Don’t get me wrong! I just need to go through my remaining schedule and make up a few speed workouts… I have kept a few logged in my Garmin Forerunner 235 (AL) for safe keeping and a morning that actually get out of the house on time!!

I runfess…or not!!

This is a great post I found yesterday…made me laugh and made me want to show ALL of my non-running friends 🙂 A fun quote (from link above) :

Do you have non-running friends that just don’t get it…or just want to figure it out?? Send them the link 🙂

I will always need and/or want more Body Glide. Always.

I have the opportunity to travel (and have a couple things paid for) for a couple of races this fall…but I can’t go to them all, sadly (……very, very sadly).

Do you live in or around the Nevada area? Or would you be willing to travel to the Nevada area for a beautiful half marathon (or 5K) experience? How about the first weekend in December? Please, leave me a comment below for more info and I will see if this is a good fit for you!! (First come, first serve…probably)

Gotta run…bye!
