Weekly Eats: More of the Same

 

A weekly roundup: eats, workouts, watches, and reads.  I tried a new dinner out on the fam, had more adventures running in the heat, and had a wonderful job interview that I am trying not to get too excited about but I am really excited about.

A weekly roundup: eats, workouts, watches, and reads.  In this week's combo weekly sweats/weekly eats edition there is nothing super genius to tell you about food, I did a mile trial, watched a fun movie, and my job situation continues to escalate.

Weekly Sweats: A Great Week

 

This week was a phenomenal week in fitness for two reasons: it was my first week of run/strength coaching AND my favorite running fuel finally came out with gels.  22 miles of running, one half-hearted strength workout on my own and the best strength workout that I've had in a long time with my coach.

Weekly Sweats: Blue Skies


Believe it or not, the above picture is one of my failed attempts to take a wrist selfie after my Saturday long run.  The sun was just too bright to be able to see what I was doing;-)  31.9 miles and 3 strength workouts for the week.

Weekly Sweats: Long Term

On paper nothing remarkable happened this week.  25.4 miles of running (11.5 of them outside thank you very much!) and one strength workout.  One of the most frustrating things about this winter is that the weather has kept me stuck in a holding pattern where I'm not really working toward anything except keeping my fitness for better days.  Increasingly signs of spring are emerging, and I'll soon be able to start working on my long term goals again instead of just passing the time.

Weekly Sweats: Back outside!!!

Friends, I got to run outside for the first time in five weeks today and I am so happy about it!  21.45 miles this week with one strength workout and a back owie.  And oh yes I bought another pair of shoes, oh yes I did.

Weekly Sweats: A cutback and new shoes

 

This was a planned cutback week and I achieved my goal of zero strength training and a few short runs for 16.7 miles total.  I cannot tell a lie: I thoroughly enjoyed my easy week AND I am very eager to get back ramp things up next week.  In other news, I tried the Brooks Levitate 4.
