Another week has come and gone. Where does the time go?
This week was a big one. Despite shorter swim practices (thank you, rain!) my weekend ride and run were my longest yet.
Maddie likes her weekly runs. It’s her favorite time of the week.
We focused on step-ups that killed me! I maxed at 30lbs.
I arrived early and did a 700 extended warm-up. It’s a good thing I arrived early, lightning moved in and cut our swim short. Boo.
Afternoon swim practice was cancelled again thanks to bad weather. I hopped on the bike trainer instead and rode through an episode of The New Girl.
Killer paddle swim! My shoulders BURNED after this! This was our make up swim from Thursday.
Awesome ride with my sister. It wasn’t about the speed, it was just about getting the time on the bike.
We did an easy 2 mile run after the bike. Sticking to a run/walk helped us make it through it.
My long run for the week. Felt surprisingly good out there.
My legs HATED me! Totally worth it.
The next month is going to be fun for training. Starting this week, I’m traveling every other weekend for work. Yikes. I’m just going to take it one day at a time and do what I can while I’m away. The good news is that September and October are mostly travel free. Wish me luck!
Each week reading this really inspires me! I can’t imagine doing what you do! This is so awesome! Keep up the great work!
Enjoy your time away encouraging and helping others behind the scenes!
Love your BLOG! Very real and very motivating. You encouraged me to do a 1/2 marathon! I have never ran in a race. Thank you!
Another great training week! I hope you had fun at Disneyland. I went when I was 8years old and so want to go back again but probably won’t be for a while yet being in Australia.
Great week! Question for you… When you ride on the trainer, what workouts do you do? I always do the same thing simply because I don’t know what ends to do. If love some ideas!
Pretty impressive! Do you plan the week in advance or do you think I’ve this to do and see how it fits into your day, on a day by day basis?

I am really interested in getting a bike trainer. Do you have any tips for finding one?
You really need to work in a rest day before you injure yourself. Your body needs rest!!
You are amazing. I love reading all of your weekly recaps and seeing how much you’ve accomplished. I’m sure you you’ll find a way to make it work during your traveling, but it won’t hurt to have a rest day every now and then, too! Good luck!
YOu look like you are having fun!!!!! We look foward to working out at your box on day with you..
I’m in awe of how you fit it all in, and reading about your track sessions has encouraged me to add some of my own!
