This just happened to be another week of less mileage than I anticipated.  I’ve been promising myself to increase my mileage over the last couple of weeks but life gets in the way.  I think it definitely affected my race on Saturday as my endurance just seemed off.  I still beat my goal for the race but could have shaved a couple of minutes without doubt if I took the running more serious during the week.  It doesn’t help that the weather here has been so erratic with its ups and downs.  No more excuses this upcoming week and I have 20 days until the Battlefrog Chicago!

I finally got a run in after a short break. Only ended up with two miles at 9ish pace. The break was much needed and some knee issue seems to be back. My next race is the @fort2base in August and I’m looking forward to one of my favorites. Come out and run with me using the code BIBPRO18 for 10% off the 10NM or 3NM when you register! fort2base.com #bibchat #Fort2BaseBR

I haven’t run in forever! I better get my priorities in check!

I can’t wait to run the @FORT2BASE race in next month and add to my collection! I especially can’t wait to start the new medal series! It’s an automatic PR if you’ve never run a 3 or 10 nautical mile race! Use the code BIBPRO18 for 10% off the 10NM or 3NM when you register at fort2base.com #bibchat #Fort2BaseBR

Today’s exercise consisted of a couple of miles of kayaking around the lake. Temps were perfect and the water was so nice! Home to finish some chores then back out on the lake. Oh, it’s also pizza night. 🍕 Happy Sunday!

Looking for a fun and amazing fall race? Hang out with me in October at the @urbanbourbonhalf half marathon for a fun course, music, BBQ, and some bourbon. Use the code BourbonRave2018 to get 10% off of your registration. #bibchat #ubhm #ubhmbr

Let’s be honest, some days running is great and some just bite. This was the latter since I waited all day for a cool down in temps that never came!! I barely managed 4 miles at 9:47, 9:38, 9:31, and 9:09. Fall will be here soon right? Time for a COLD shower and AC! And yes, that is a pizza shirt!! Happy Thursday!
