9 miles @ 8:26!

SHE TURNED THE CORNER. It was her first day back to school after getting her tonsils out.

The school had a dance festival and Knox shocked me with his dancing skills.

Brooke was back to soccer too!

Now for the tangents…

*It’s super fun when the asthma kicks in even harder at the end of a workout because of alllllllllll of the pollen in the air.

*On Saturday I did this workout (try it, it’s a fun one)…

*While the speed paces ended up being pretty similar to the time I did it in 2023, the float paces were faster on Saturday, so I’ll take it as a win.

*Friends that bring candy for fuel to share during the run are my favorite types of friends.

*Lifting session with Andrew in the garage. I can’t tell you how much I am enjoying a garage that isn’t 5°.

*My SIL is so lucky to get a tattoo of my brother’s face for Mother’s Day! He sent me the link, in case anyone else is looking to make a tattoo of their face to give to someone.

*Andrew didn’t think of the face tattoo but he did find a Princess Diana t-shirt and sweatshirt on Etsy that I want to wear every day now.

*Yesterday, I met a little baby who was recently the receiver of an organ transplant at a hospital where Andrew works often. It was so sweet to see the beautiful side of what Andrew does for work in organ donation.

*I read an article about Hyrox races and it was my first time hearing about them. Has anyone reading done one of these?

I would love to hear about any races that you have done that you have done that are different than the normal races!

Have any tangents for me today?

Mom’s reading… did you get anything on Mother’s Day?

I need to get my hair done soon… I’ve been thinking for a few months now about growing it out… or should I keep it short? What length is your hair currently?

(shorts, tank, shoes) 7 miles @ 8:43. Andrew is working on Sunday, and so he sent me yesterday for Mother’s Day spoiling… The best massage. I have the best coupons now. Greek yogurt, chia seeds & fruit every day now. The food of the day for Brooke’s throat was rice with massaman curry. Tell me … Continue Reading

10 miles @ 8:37 pace before Andrew went to work and then straight to mom life. One of the hardest parts for Brooke after getting her tonsils out is how hungry she is because nothing sounds good, and everything hurts to eat. I told her we would drive around until she saw something that caught … Continue Reading

(shorts, shirt, shoes) Do you ever just stand there and stare at your running shoes and feel so grateful for how much they have improved (looks and function wise) over the years? I hope I’m not alone in this. They are saying this is our last freeze of the season and it is bringing me … Continue Reading

(long sleeve ((on sale)), tank, shorts, shoes wu/cd, shoes workout, bra) You know when you don’t get enough sleep and then feel like you have the flu? That was me yesterday. Brooke and I have been up in the middle of the night every night, watching movies until she can fall back asleep. I didn’t … Continue Reading

(shirt, shorts) It snowed on us for a bit during the run so that was a fun May surprise. I love my helix piercing but goodness gracious I regret it when my ears are cold because it hurtsssssss. I need to be smart and always wear an ear covering if it’s under 35°. Brooke needed … Continue Reading
