That was Fun + 11 Facts + Training Last Week!

I have 11 facts to share with you today.  I hope you are having a really great weekend!

*The race went really well and I hit a new 10k PR of 38:14!  I’ll have my usual overly-detailed race report up tomorrow morning.

*The weather was absolutely perfect.  I could not believe it because right before the race and right after the race it was windy/raining.

*Skye is becoming the expert race supporter!

*Right after the race/cool-down it was straight to Knox’s baseball game!

*Andrew picked up donuts in the morning and an old-fashioned donut has never tasted better in my entire life (followed by a glazed donut).

*Andrew went mountain biking and the girls and I got in some quality time on the rug… I attempted to stretch for about 15 minutes and then lying down for a while with Skye giving me a sports massage by crawling on my legs felt needed too;)

*We went to the Riverwoods.

*And these two made best friend bracelets for each other.

*We ate the best burger in the whole world (from 7 Brother’s).

*And then decided that swimsuits are overrated and just played in the splash pad in their normal clothes.

*And the rest of the day was spent at home!

Here’s how this last week looked:

Monday:  8.6 miles @ 8:03… some on the dirt trails.

Tuesday: 7.3 miles @ 8:06 average.

Wednesday:  9.15 miles @ 7:31 average.  Three miles in the middle w/ 100m FAST followed by 100m recovery jog on repeat without stopping.  Those miles were 6:31, 6:27 and 6:24 and they hurt so bad but they are so so good for us.

Thursday:  6.5 miles @ 8:36.

Friday:  2.5 miles 9:03 average

Saturday: 15.5 miles total with the 10k starting after a 2.5 mile warm-up

Sunday: Off!

49.5 miles for the week!
