Weekly Sweats: Half Marathon #5

In this week's news, I ran 27 miles including the virtual version of my favorite race ever.  Let's get into it!

Weekly Eats: OMG a Trader Joe's Haul!

A weekly round up: eats, watches, and reads.  This week I went to TJ's and bought All of The Things and had adventures with the air fryer.

Weekly Sweats: Another (virtual) 5k PR!

Oh my goodness, we have a lot to talk about this week.

• 21.6 miles of running.  I reduced my mileage partly to get in a 5k and partly because I didn't feel great for a few days
• NDB, just a little 5k PR...for the 3rd time this year.
  
• My 2nd fastest 10 miler ever
  

Ok, let's get started! 

Weekly Eats: the Return of the Sofritas Bowl

A weekly round up: eats, watches, and reads.  This week saw the return of my beloved sofritas bowls, my continued struggles with getting dinner on the table, and some old favorites in the movie and book departments.
 

Weekly Sweats: Easy Miles and Where I am with the Half

The irony of my title is that none of the 32 miles that I ran this week were easy.  The weather wasn't in my favor so I "just ran" instead of trying to do workouts.  I also realized that my next half marathon is a week sooner than I thought it was (I had the date correct but I miscounted the number of Saturdays in September) so I increased my long run distance to try and catch up.

Weekly Eats: Just One Idea

A weekly round up: eats, watches, and reads.  If you came here looking for fresh new meal ideas, sorry but this week I did not deliver in that department.  The first few days of the month are always very busy work wise for me and exceptionally so this week.  I had just one meal idea and it took me until the weekend to make it a reality.

Weekly Sweats: 3 out of 5 ain't bad

This week's highlights: I had two consecutive days of sucky runs and then three consecutive days of good runs, got my long run in on a Friday, and did more strength work than I've done in a good long while.  Here's how the past 30 miles have gone.
