Hey guys. I was a little busy the last two days to get on here. Plus, now that DH is working full time at home, it is hard to get time in the office. . . by myself. . . to hear my thoughts. Should be fun when I am back at work as well, right? Lol. Anyway. . . I have been keeping up with my runs...

Good morning! This weekend was a busy one with DS's baseball tournament, but I have been keeping up with my training runs. Saturday was a 3 mile training run, Sunday I ran 10 for my long run and this morning I ran a 3 mile recovery run. I am going to do weights later, maybe. . . Or I may put it...

Hey guys. This morning I did a 6 mile progression tempo run. It is part of the training plan the Virtual NYC marathon coaches prescribed (part of my package). I had to run the first mile slow and easy (which is always hard for me to start slow, don't know why), then increase a little with miles...

Hey guys. The tournament was fun. We didn't win, but the boys played well and DS had a blast. We ended up going to Hershey Park. They had strict rules about mask wearing and social distancing. I still felt nervous, but I just made sure to wash my hands regularly, keep my mask on, and keep my...

Well,I got my long run in today. 12 miles this morning. The temp was cooler out, 72, but the humidity is still at 95%. My pace was slow, but I got it done. I have to pack up. We are going to Pennsylvania for DS's baseball tournament. I won't be able to log on here until Monday. Hoping to be able...

Hey guys. Today I had to go to work to completely empty out my room. The only furniture that will be allowed in the room is the desks, teacher/students. No cabinets, no bookshelves, no books. Not really sure how I am teaching without books, but that is another story. Then I found out that we...

Hey guys. I just ran 4 miles in this freakin' humidity. We had a thunderstorm early this morning, so I had to wait for it to clear. I was hoping it would take the humidity with it, but somehow it felt worse after the storm! Not sure if I will do weights later or just rest. I need new running...

Hi guys. Yesterday was a rest day. I just went in the pool and swam. Today I ran 6.5 miles this morning. I plan on doing an upper body workout after breakfast. Nothing fancy. . . 20 minutes or even less. DS has a double header baseball game today, so I will be sweating all day. It is right smack...

Hi everyone. Today I ran 10.5 miles. Yesterday I had a lot of running around to do, so it ended up being a rest day. Today is both DH and DS's birthday. We are having a few friends over for a bbq and pool. I made a chocolate cake with whipped cream frosting, which is DS's favorite. I have a...

Hey guys. Today I did an early morning 5 mile run, plus 4 20 seconds strides (as part of the virtual marathon training plan) and then I did a short CF style workout: 10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 of the following movements- push-ups, sit-ups, dips (using high step) and air squats. I finished it off with...

Hey guys. Yesterday was an unplanned rest day. We lost power and Internet Tuesday and it did not come back on until last night! That tropical storm was no joke. I have a funny feeling, and I hope I am wrong, but I think we are going to have a bad hurricane season. Could you imagine? On top of...

Hey guys. . . well, due to the tropical storm, I could not my scheduled run in, so I did a CF style workout instead. The first part of the workout was repped like this: 3-9-15-21-15-9-3 and it consisted of dumbell deadlifts )20#), step ups, and hollow rocks (abs). Then I added on 3 rounds of the...

Hi Ladies. I am back from the baseball tournament. DS's team didn't win, but they played exciting games. It was weird traveling with Covid going on. The gym was not open at my hotel, so I ended up with two rest days. Today I ran 5 miles in this freakin' humidity. Then I did an upper body and ab...

Hey guys. Got a 10 mile run in this morning, very early. It was still hot! DS has a baseball game later, so I need to cool off and get ready. Belinda- they wear a mask in the dugout, cloth. . . but it is still outside. It makes me nervous. DH says we hand sanitize, wash our hands, wear masks...

Got in an early morning 6 mile run. This morning seemed even hotter than yesterday! DS has an away tournament in Connecticut this weekend and I am getting nervous about it. Did you see in the news about the team that played Philly this weekend? I forget which team it was. . . half the team...

Hey guys. Today I did two workouts I found on pinterest. The first workout was a burpee/squat workout. You do 10 burpees then 1 squat, then 9 burpees and 2 squata, 8 burpees and 3 squats, all the way down until you get to 1 burpee and 10 squats. It was a killer! Then I did a 10 minute AMRAP (As...

Hey there! Yesterday, I took a complete rest day. DS had a double-header for baseball and my whole body was sore from the workout on Friday. I decided I earned a rest day. This morning I headed out early with my dad. We went to the path out east and I ran 9 miles while my dad was on his bike...

I got a very early 3 mile morning run done. It was 100% humidity at 6 this morning. Then I drove my dad upstate to see my aunt and uncle. Home now and just relaxing in the air conditioning. I will bbl with personals. Kristin

Good morning. This morning I got up early and completed another ten mile run. I am ten miles away from Albany in my virtual race, that is the last "marker" before the finish line, which is in Times Square. This virtual race has been so motivating to me. I am glad I signed up for it. Belinda-...
