5 miles. I felt a lot better than the day before.

Splits: 8:55, 8:25, 8:11, 8:22, 7:55

I'll let you guess which mile had me discovering "my" port o john was gone!


6 neighborhood miles. I was a little speedy because I was angered by the Big Brother episode that aired the night before (OMG I HATE VANESSA!!!!)

Now that my port o' john is gone, I really have to stick close to my house.

Splits: 8:49, 8:10, 8:04, 8:12, 7:58, 7:53

  1. Awesome week in workouts! Bummer your potty is gone, now. I had a good week too. 4 run days w/ rowing/weights, 2 bike days & 1 complete rest day (missed my swim this week so back to the pool next week). I am really gonna miss summer because when winter comes the weather dictates my workout schedule.

    1. Me too! Super duper cold days I will lift and "warm" days (like 15 and above haha) I will run. As long as there is nothing slippy on the roads. Now I no you don't do the treadmill so if the weather is bad I guess you end up doing more swimming or biking? I loathe the treadmill so much, so even though it's an option for me, I am more likely to just lift, even a couple days in a row, if there is snow on the ground.

    2. When the snow comes, I use my yak trax on my shoes so I can still run it's just very slow. I don't love to bike inside so I will probably swim 2 x per week and hope to get out for runs on the other days. If we get a time when the snow melts and the roads are clear I will bike but anything below 32 on the bike is too cold for me!!

    3. I do also have the indoor track at the rec center!

    5. it is really small (14 laps = 1 mile) .... so definitely a mental game but for me the only other option since I can't do the tready.

  2. Sounds like a solid workout all week, way to go. I've been incorporating a lot more strength training lately. It really helps!! Have a great weekend!

    1. They can really save the day. I don't understand why this one is gone. It has been there for soooooo long. All winter too. So sad.
