You get to hear from me twice today… muhahahaha!
11 miles with Josse with 4 x 1 mile repeats (6:12, 6:10, 6:15, 6:09) and 2.5 minute recoveries… 11.5 miles total with warm-up and cool-downs!
It was 82 degrees by the end so Josse used the water fountain to help her cool off!
Fall is showing it’s face around here…
Speed work is more fun in these shoes.
I swear now that she is 4, she talks a million times more than when she was 3 and she looks so much older!
An intense round of Candy Land.
We still make time to strengthen our relationship with Target even though our life has changed so much recently.
Jess hooked us up with delicious veggies and fruit from her garden—> tomatoes from a garden in fact taste 400 times better than when they are from the store.
Leftover tilapia was added to the mix.
Beretta has made herself quite at home in Brooke’s room.
Holli is training for her 20TH marathon this November and sporting her Hungry Runner Girl tank:)
Turns out we still have some painting to do… I can’t wait;)

I still feel like I haven’t found the perfect sports bra for my marathon training long runs. The one I currently use doesn’t wick as well as I would like in this Texas heat.
