I had a pretty good week running-wise. Drew had the whole week off and sometimes its hard to motivate myself to go to the gym when I'd rather be cuddling with him and the pooches, but I did alright, regardless.
Here's what the week looked like:
Monday: 3 miles outside. I bought new running tights and a compression top so I was excited to try them out. I felt pretty cute... and pretty cold. I came home and did Jillian Michael's 6 Week 6 Pack on FitTV. Has anyone done this??? It is awesome! Brooke & I went to yoga later that night too.
Tuesday: 5 miles on the treadmill: 43:14. I started at 6 mph and ended at 8 mph. Lots of fun... right.
Wednesday: Nada. I meant to go to the gym. I told Brooke I'd go to yoga. I bailed on both.
Thursday: 11-ish miles. OMG. It was 60 degrees out. I didn't even get to wear my cute new running clothes because it was so nice out! I wore capris and a short-sleeve top and it was awesome. If I could get one day a week of that kind of weather then this marathon training would be a snap.
I accidentally turned off my Garmin mid-way through the run so I'm not sure exactly how far I ran, but it was somewhere in the 11 range.
Friday: Yoga. I didn't think I was too tired after that long run until I tried doing yoga. My legs were tired.
Saturday: Nada. Drew and I decided to go to the gym after visiting his grandpa in the afternoon. We ended up at Jose Peppers drinking beer and eating queso with Brooke & Bryan instead. Is there a better way to start off the new year? Didn't think so.
Sunday: 2 miles & 20 minutes on the elliptical. We got up and went to the gym this morning to make up for missing on Saturday. The gym was busy! Dang resolutioners.
I said I was only going to run 3 times a week... but it had been a few days since I had run, so I took these miles easy and kept it slow.
Total: 21 miles
There were a few too many rest days this week, but I still feel like I did okay. Looking forward to a twelve miler this week! I'm praying for another warm day for running!

I really think all the resolutioners should get their own section in the gym. I hear storage room B has room. But, seriously I hate going to the gym during Jan!
I agree Lauren, there is nothing worse than the gym in January! Except maybe running outside in January...
