T.G.I.F

Thank God I'm Finished. What did you think I meant?

It's been a very busy workout week after my duathalon. Four days straight of hard workouts. Well maybe yesterday's wasn't too bad. I figured in 4 days I got rid of almost 7500 calories. Too bad the scale won't show it! Tomorrow is a rest day. I'm looking forward to it. Instead I will spend the time cleaning my bike. The ride on Wednesday coated it with mud and leaves, probably a few leftover lady bugs too. It will take as long to clean it as it would to run 6-7 miles.

Today I had a first. I tried to switch things up a bit. Always good for anyone to do that when they workout. Constantly changing your routine is the best way to get stronger and faster. Anyway I ran twice today and it's only noon! I ran 4 miles this morning around 6:45am and then I ran another 4 miles at around 10:15. However, in between those runs I went to spin class to get my butt kicked. Luckily it was an endurance day. Yeah! I am learning that I need to bring food to the gym or eat some GU or sport beans between sports. My last mile today was very tough. I started to get a bit light headed and my body was struggling. Note to self. EAT! Two pieces of peanut butter toast in the morning is just not cuttin it anymore.

I plan on going out tonight for dinner and enjoying some family time. Lately I feel like my husband and I haven't had much time together. We are both busy doing our own things. We were trying to fix that awhile back and it lasted a bit but I see us falling back into a routine that I so want to get out of. The key is to keep switching it up. Constantly changing your routine is the best way to help your relationship get stronger. Funny how that works.........

Happy Friday!
