A very sweaty but satisfying start to my day. Real feel 79ยฐF 90% humidity ๐ฅต #negativesplits #positivevibes #runsky
Iโve been wanting to get back into dancing for awhile for and luckily there are #burlesque classes in my city. Learned my first routine at a workshop tonight and it was SO much fun. Can we call this cross training? What do you think, #runsky ?
Didnโt make it out this morning like I hoped so I stayed inside this afternoon. Wooo heat advisory. #runsky
Never sweat so copiously but the breathing was easier than I expected. Must be acclimating to the heat! 77ยฐF (25ยฐC) with 82% humidity. #runsky
Happy little lunch run today. For most of the 2.5 years Iโve been running Iโve been following a training plan. Iโm starting to love the freedom of not training. Choosing routes and distances on the fly. Just focusing on form and splits right now. โ๐ป #runsky
Yesterday was my longest run since the half marathon I raced at the beginning of May. Beautiful sunny morning, 335 ft elevation gain, near perfect splits and felt great. #runsky
Hit the track this morning for 800m repeats. Havenโt done intervals in a long time but felt good! Looking forward to a long run tomorrow. #runsky
Fear not, #runsky friends. Neglected to post but I did run this week. Slowly building mileage back up and feeling good despite high heat and humidity. Gonna show off last nightโs dinner and todayโs breakfast while Iโm at it ๐๐ปโโ๏ธ
@letterboxd.social Happy #LetterboxdFriday! Here is this weekโs #LastFourWatched a bit macabre, innit? ๐
@letterboxd.social Happy #LetterboxdFriday! Here is my #LastFourWatched itโs been an interesting week ๐
Muggy 5k last night to keep me humble. Lots of strength work and sweaty but short, easier effort runs lately. Finally finding a flow with the belly breathing and it does seem to help with the warmer weather adaptation. Holy alliterations. Happy Friday! ๐ #runsky
Accountant by day. Runner whenever I can. Lifter most evenings. And tonight, a destroyer of fried chicken. Itโs all about balance. ๐ #runsky
Happy global running day, friends! Iโm so grateful for my friends on this little #runsky corner of the internet ๐ some truly wonderful humans and we are doing incredible things. Every time we run we get the chance to see, do, and be something beautiful. ๐
Went all out today with a run, a dog walk, and an ab workout before making lunch! Lazing ever since. ๐ This will be the year I get visible abs, guys, I swear!!! ๐ค #runsky
Short run yesterday and another three miler this morning. Embracing not being on a plan right now and just listening to my body. Doesnโt hurt getting to housesit and run near a beautiful college campus. #runsky
easy three miles this morning. arrived at the difficult decision of deferring my marathon registration to next spring. not sure if I will do one this year or not now, but there just wasnโt any choice after losing so much stamina in the past few weeks. #runsky
Felt strong on both runs so far this week. A little two week break from PT sessions and then Iโm have a follow-up assessment. Getting more used to the diaphragmatic breathing but it still challenges my focus. #runsky
Hey #runsky fam! Iโm alive. Havenโt been running much the past few weeks as Iโm slogging through physical therapy and making adjustments to my form while on lifting restrictions and trying to learn diaphragmatic breathing. Bruises from scraping & dry needling at PT โ๐ป
50th running of the #IndyMini today! A chilly but beautiful morning. My 2nd fastest half marathon time. #runsky #marathontraining
usy day today but got a lot of movement in. Mandatory in-office training three days this week and mini-marathon Saturday! Emailed my physical therapist because the assigned exercises trigger muscle spasms that make me nauseated. #runsky #marathontraining
Took a beating at physical therapy today. But the prognosis looks pretty good and #marathontraining continues. ๐ค๐ป #positivethoughts #negativesplits
Dog walks and upper body strength workout today. Gonna keep the midweek runs easy this weekโฆ my 7th half marathon race is Saturday! Canโt wait for another Indy Mini ๐ #runsky #marathontraining #thirsttrap ๐
Church of the long run this morning. Felt so strong, especially coming off of last weekendโs injury. #marathontraining
