Weekly Workouts


30 miles this week and lifted twice. I walked twice, hiked once, and had a tap class. A variety of workouts!

Saturday- 10 miles on the trail with my daddio! I wrote more about this here. I woke up with a random PIMA. It didn't get worse during my run but persisted throughout the day.


Sunday- HIKING! PIMA still there. Ankles were sore from my trail run! (But a good sore.) Paul and I hiked 5 miles and I ran 1 mile on the Appalachian Trail. (He forgot his water bottle at the top of the climb... so I ran up to get it for him!)


Monday- Lifting upper body at home. PIMA still there but got better throughout the day. After work, I went to Urgent Care because of a weird feelingI was having in my leg. Sort of dumb and tingly. The doctor said it was a nerve lesion. I made an appointment with my PCP to follow up. That will be in about two weeks.

Tuesday- 6 neighborhood miles. PIMA GONE! There was a full moon. I never take pictures during my morning runs, but here is one for ya!



Wednesday- 7 miles. I averaged 8:17s so I was feeling pretty good! Boy does my hair do wacky things in the morning! I had tap class later but didn't really break a sweat because we just kept doing the same thing over and over.


Thursday- Lifting upper body. Nothing too exciting to report about this workout! Paul and I went for a short walk that evening.

Friday- 6 miles. This was a slooooow run. I felt good, just pokey. We also walked a little bit in the afternoon.
I never know what to ask at the end of these workout recaps! Ummmmm... Does my hair look worse in Tuesday's picture or Wednesday's? Hahaha!

  1. I don't think your hair looks bad in either... you were working out after all so nobody expects you to look perfect :). Looks like you had a great week of workouts and glad your bum feels better!

  2. Lotsa miles despite the PIMA! Mine was all jacked up... and then I stopped doing my PT exercises and it improved ;) Not that it's a good thing to stop trying to get stronger, but I don't need it worse before my race.
    How's the hair holding up for the workouts?

  4. Love that you did 10 miles with your dad. If you don't mind me asking, how old is he? I run 5K races with my dad but he's in his 60's and I always worry about him having a heart attack or collapsing or something. I mean he's in good shape and all, but it's just something that I worry about and I don't encourage him to run as much as I use too. Heck for that matter I worry about myself having a heart attack..lol

    Kudos to the two of you for running together!

  5. I recognize that shirt you're wearing in the Tuesday run pic ;)

    Is that the moon in the background?!
