Happy to report that there is no more shoulder pain. Just a whole bunch of stress. (Car stress!) Also, I didn’t listen to any books on my trip, but I have continued reading: Also, if you don’t know.. my ethnicity is Japanese (1/2) and I have ALWAYS leaned more towards that side than my CaucasianContinue reading “Week 21 (of 2024) – RETURNING HOME”

Week 20 (of 2024) – the week of family + BACK/SHOULDER PAIN + THE SMOKEY MOUNTAINS
I briefly touched base on the fact that I hurt my back…first things first, when we tried to push the car in, it didn’t want to budge. The e-brake was off and it was in neutral. But the front axle wasn’t in and the dang car didn’t want to BUDGE. I pushed with everything IContinue reading “Week 20 (of 2024) – the week of family + BACK/SHOULDER PAIN + THE SMOKEY MOUNTAINS”
Week 19 – of 2024 – The Week Of Car Fixing and Stress Compling
After MONTHS of waiting for this book to become available, it finally is!! I really do enjoy easy running and I know for a fact that I run faster than I should with Vina and Phoebe but luckily with River it is a slooooow run. Although, with this humidity rolling in I have noticed ourContinue reading “Week 19 – of 2024 – The Week Of Car Fixing and Stress Compling”
Week 18 (of 2024) – a foggy and very sleepy week
I think this will be a cut back week and I most likely won’t be doing a long run this weekend because I am hoping that the weather is good for Jesse to fish. He has been patiently waiting for good weather and the truck to work. I told him he could take any orContinue reading “Week 18 (of 2024) – a foggy and very sleepy week”

Week 14 of 2024!
With not needing to focus on structured training for a race, I think I will incorporate more easy running, strength and 1 speed workout a week. The two speed workouts a week feel like too much right now. I was trying to follow a more speed focused training, but it really feels like too muchContinue reading “Week 14 of 2024!”

It is spring break! Which means I don’t have to wake up a grumpy 9 year old to go to school – ha! – I really want to focus on: hitting my miles and paces, strength training, stretching and playing outside with the kids. Also, how is it already week 13 of the new year?!?Continue reading “Week 13 (of 2024)”
Week 12 – of 2024
I am going to start working on my speed. I want to get faster. I want to start challenging myself to stay in a more uncomfortable zone and push myself. Also, I forgot to mention one of the best parts about Sunday… While it was raining and Hazel was sleeping, I did exactly what IContinue reading “Week 12 – of 2024”
