Now that the Hospital Hill ReRun weekend is in the rear-view, it is time to focus on the next task! The Rock ‘n’ Roll Chicago is 7 weeks away and the Hawk 100 is 13 weeks away! There are some additional races in the mix for the Hawk 100 training – but I will think about those as they come [big miles on the way!!]…
weekly workouts : week 7 (june 4)
Monday
Scheduled : OFF
Actual : OFF
Tuesday
Scheduled : 8 miles
Actual : 4.5 miles
A late night and an early start don’t always mix. So I got in what miles I could during my lunch break. Since the hubs was out biking, I tried to meet up with him…but he decided to go a different way and I didn’t feel like killing myself to try and catch him. It’s all good, at least I got in a few miles!
Wednesday
Scheduled : 8 miles
Actual : 12 miles
Happy Global Running Day!
Since I missed a chunk of my miles yesterday, I decided to make them up today. While a laundry list of excuses crept up throughout my run, I was able to make all the miles happen in one chunk! Happy dance!
Thursday
Scheduled : 8 miles
Actual : 7 miles + 1 mile
An early start…but not quite early enough. I needed to get to work early, so I needed to get in my run even earlier! I would have been okay on time if it were any other day of the week…but not today! I came up a mile short in the morning – I made up the last mile over my lunch break walking to the store – but that barely counts ; )
Friday
Scheduled : 6 miles
Actual : 6 miles
Before hitting the road to KC, I was able to get in my miles for the day! No greater feeling than being done with my run and in a better head space before the day truly starts…
Saturday
Scheduled : 25 miles
Actual : 25 miles + 10 miles
With a minor late start, I was able to get in all 25 miles before my FIL needed to get to work. I am so grateful for the time that my family can watch little man while I get my run on!
Speaking of which, I was able to get to Lawrence for a Night Hawk preview run. I used the miles to take off my Sunday miles… I will totally need a bug shield for the race – so gross…
Sunday
Scheduled : 15 miles
Actual : 0 miles
While I was fully prepared to run 5 miles on Sunday to get in the rest of my miles [10 from last night’s jaunt]…but I just didn’t. Slept in [since I didn’t get in bed until nearly midnight]. Little man was my alarm. Hung out with the fam, drove home, birthday party fun…and then relaxing!
Weekly Miles : 65 miles
RnRChicago Miles : 65 miles
100m Training Miles : 401 miles
Annual Miles : 1050 miles (goal = 2,018 in 2018)
