Checking in again, first to wish all the marathon weekend runners good luck! Can't wait to read the recaps.
Been a fine week for running, I've been able to get out consistently (ran last Thursday, Saturday, Monday, and yesterday, and will run again tomorrow and Saturday). I just ordered new speed workout shoes and new general training shoes (we got a new dog last year and she ate my old ones during her puppy teething phase). One goal I have is to be better about tracking the mileage on my shoes. I was great about it when I manually updated Strava, but now that I sync my Garmin to Strava, I routinely forget to tag shoes.
Every run gets a little easier, so I think Coach is probably right about regaining fitness, though I'm admittedly still keeping distances short. One thing I'm proud of though: I'm making it a point to run outside. It snowed here Tuesday so the ground was icy-ish yesterday. Still made it a point to get outside. The run was that much less boring because I was watching for ice patches : )
I have a business trip next week, which has historically been when I've gotten bad about running. Monday is the day I'm worried abotu since I have an early flight and work commitments through dinner, but I'll figure it out. I think maybe I can squeeze a run in between the office and dinner. Wednesday will be a treadmill run at the hotel gym : )
