(shirt, shorts, footwear)

Gotta love the inspirational quotes on the timber alongside the best way of our favourite little path.

Eight miles @ 8:30 tempo.

I’m severely questioning when these footwear are going to offer out… I’m guessing I’m near having run 700 miles on them, and the froth remains to be thriving. I’m not one to run by a shoe’s expiration date (as a result of shopping for new footwear is simply so enjoyable, and footwear which can be overused harm), however I’m anxious these footwear don’t have an expiration date.

Molly requested me yesterday if being in St. George had me desirous about doing the marathon, and the reply is sure…

So I assumed I might fill you in on what marathons and objectives (as of in the present day… my thoughts is consistently altering) are at present making me really feel excited as a result of there isn’t an opportunity on the planet I’ll practice for a marathon and work that onerous if it isn’t making my coronary heart beat quick…

So listed here are my present ideas:

*Do Massive Bear as a result of a gaggle of my mates are all doing it, and it could be such a enjoyable women’ journey and a blast to have mates to coach with…

*Mesa Marathon. I’ve wished to do that one for years and listen to one of the best issues concerning the course and the right temps (it’s in February).

*Begin a brand new objective of seeing what number of completely different marathon programs I can run sub 3. A part of me feels too drained to coach exhausting sufficient for a marathon PR these days, BUT exhausting sufficient for a sub 3. Seeing what number of programs I might run a sub 3 at makes me really feel excited. I’m drawn to going for that 2:59 in new locations with new challenges?!

*Have one other child… Beck has gotten SO a lot simpler these days (now that I look again on his first two years, I notice that issues weren’t straightforward), and possibly have another?! However then I keep in mind how sick (bodily and mentally) I get throughout being pregnant, and I’m unsure I can ever do this once more, though I like the concept of getting one other human with us.

*Do a brief coaching block for St. George this yr (like the one I did in 2022 for Boston… my physique loves the quick coaching blocks). As soon as my children are at school, I feel marathon coaching will work once more. I like the course, St. George has my coronary heart, and I’ve a free bib.

Let’s chat about another issues from the day.

I quizzed Brooke on her canine info. Brooke would be the greatest veterinarian sometime.

My niece joined me for errands.

She loved seeing my eyebrows like this:

Coming off of a trip is tough… he’s exhausted.

The peach scones have been perfection. Please make them.

In case you have been questioning, Andrew has already began taking a look at Halloween decorations for this yr. Here’s a throwback to Brooke’s second yr with Andrew and his love of Halloween.
