Last week’s workouts had me feeling good. I was able to get two runs on trails, I increased my long run distance with no PF talking back to me, and I made it to my yoga studio twice.
Workouts are good!

Confession: I don’t like corn fields. They freak me out because of the film, “The Children of the Corn”. But I put on my big girl undies and ran through the field to get to a section of the trail. I was practically sprinting the whole time especially when two deer came barreling out of the corn stalks right in front of me. Of course, I wasn’t spooked enough to stop for a pic. #TheThingsWeDoforTheInsta

Thursday
5 mile run, 2.5 miles easy, 10 minutes @ comfortably hard pace, remainder easy pace
Morning Flow Yoga @ Bending Bodhi
I’m so lucky I ran this workout with Kyle. If it wasn’t for having company, I would have pulled the plug on running comfortably hard for 10 minutes. I was the keeper of the time and honestly was going to tell her time was up at 5, 7, 8, and 9 minutes. But I didn’t. And I’m glad.
Friday
REST DAY!
Saturday
9.5 mile run
I’m so out of practice with running long that I knew I was going to want some company. Kyle had mentioned she might want to run a little longer over the weekend so I texted and hoped for a YES!
We kept it easy and chatted the whole time in a weird rain/mist/humid thing. Funny that the hourly forecast said absolutely nothing about any type of precipitation the whole morning. My shirt was soaked but I wasn’t sure if it was because of the rain or my awesome sweat. Probably a mixture but heavy on the awesomeness.
Sunday
4 mile trail run
I opted for sleeping in and then sweating buckets in the full sun at my sons first flag football game of the season instead of getting my run done early. It was about 3 p.m. before I ventured out to the trails. I knew it was going to be hot but 88 degrees and 1000% humidity is just wrong in September. I think I sweated out my body weight before I was even done with my warm up. I took the pace easy and enjoyed the dirt, trees and my thoughts.
