Workout: 3.75 mile run.
Oh boy it was a hot one. Probably the warmest all year, which made it hard towards the end. But I did it and I’m extremely happy I held a 9:03 average pace per mile. <- champ status, people!!
On to some really big news {for me anyhow}.
I’m signed up for the Two Cities half marathon!!
It’s on November 4th so I have plenty of time to ease back into it.
Bonus it’s in Fresno so I get to bug my family while I’m there. 
Here’s the training plan I’m very loosely following.
Of course I’m taking it really slow, but right now I’m on week 3.
My goals are quite simple.
- Run 3 days a week. 1 long run, 2 slower/easy.
- Cross train on my bike 2 days.
- Stretch before & after.
- Strength training every other day.
Posting this makes me so nervous. This is something I have been determined to do but I feel so hesitant making it public. But after thinking about it, I love it when other post their goals & dreams. I realized I thrive off of setting goals.
I love being apart of a blogging community that is encouraging beyond anything I could ever imagine.
I find a lot of my motivation comes from the healthy living blogs I read.
It’s crazy how the virtual world can help keep me on track, motivated and always looking for a new goal to reach down the road.
So there ya have it. I’m back to torturing myself again.
What’s your next big race?
