I didnโt go to track practice because I had a dentist appointment (new braces colors yo) so I had to run at night. I forgot how peaceful night running is โ even when you have to do mile repeats
1 mile warm up
3 x 1 mile repeats (6:25, 6:27, 6:25) with .25 jog in between
1.5 mile cooldown
6 miles total @ 7:23 avg
I went right to bed and slept well that night!! Mom made another good dinner before I ran that surprisingly didnโt affect my stomach!

These miles were mentally hard. The wind was CRAZY and it was snowing. I was feeling the mile repeats from yesterday as well BUT I pushed through and felt awesome when I was done.

Sunday
Rest day! Much needed, at that. Started the day out with church, then pancakes, recipe creating, post writing, and work from 5-8. So I guess a rest from running but still a busy day!Itโs spring break this week but Iโve still got a lot to do โ track every morning, college class in the afternoon, and work a few evenings! We might take off somewhere for a night on Thursday or Friday but weโll see. Easter is gonna be here so quick!
I want to wish a big happy birthday to Tricia!!! Love and miss you tons โฅ
Amazing job on climbing the rope! Iโve never tried, but always wanted to.
Does that mean you can do pull-ups?
Iโve ran a couple of times after dinner and felt okay during the run, but always incredibly nauseous after โ so Iโm sticking to the morning these days!![๐](https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/15.0.3/svg/1f642.svg)
Iโve always been able to climb the rope! I cannot, however, do pull-ups
I take that back. I can do one!
I prefer morning runs more because I love feeling great the rest of the day. When I run at night Iโm waiting all day to go!
Great workouts and great food! I honestly cannot even imagine how you must be dealing with all that cold! Itโs been in the mid-70s to low 80s here on the coast of California ;).
Stahhhhhp
youโre just asking for me to come visit you!! I am going to San Fran this summer but I know itโs pretty far from Santa Barbara!
Iโm just going to say this every time: You are so freaking fast and motivating![๐](https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/15.0.3/svg/1f642.svg)
Thanks girl!![๐](https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/15.0.3/svg/1f642.svg)
