Saturday – Rest
Sunday – 15.2k
Monday I did a shake out run because Sunday was a bust. It felt good going out and no itching like crazy!
Wednesday was crazy. I personally cannot believe I ran these splits so MAYBE my polar doesn’t like where I was running? It felt weird because I was doing a 2k loop of rolling hills with headwind because I was taken up to the middle of nowhere….8k with 3k progression in 48 with my splits: 6:11, 5:52, 6:13, [5:53, 5:50, 5:50], 6:16, 6:27. I could not believe I did that with hills! I’ve been kind of out of it the last few months so nailing my recent runs feels good!
Thursday: 35 mins of cycling while I cheered on my recruits as they ran! Then 500m easy run (pacing), leg lifts and calf raises at 70-80lbs.
Then 3hrs at a the One of a Kind Show… 3hrs for one loop! I of course bought a ton of pretty things…. shop local right? 😉 haha.
Then Sunday, I did 15k! My longest run since the Scotiabank half marathon! I’m just so amazed at myself considering how many runs I’ve missed or flopped in the last two months, I really cannot believe that I ran it. Also, I managed to pick up one of my Nike 15k recruits along the way haha. He made me run up a flight of stairs so I’m reevaluating our friendship as I type this…LOL
Sometimes I pick up runners/recruits along the way! #nrc

Hurray for your great week! Hope you have another!
So glad to hear you had a fun week! Mine was a little tough but my weekend was amazing. Took in an amazing Broadway show and ate ribs. 🙂
ribs are the best!
Wow pretty speedy there girl!
Wow great job! You are fast!! Have a great week keep up the great training
sounds like a really strong week!
Glad you got a solid week in and hope that you’ll have another. Love that you met a friend along the run! 🙂
right? always a fun surprise!
Sounds like a great week!! Love that you pushed through and made it through 15K even through your training hasn’t been perfect – I’m always surprised at what my body can do!
Yaaaay! What a great week for you 🙂
Glad you had a great week!
Looks like you had a great week! :] You are super speedy! :O
Great runs for you!! I’m hoping to have a few solid runs this week myself…only 13 days until Paris!
I cannot WAIT to see your pics from Paris!!!
Way to go on the 15k! I have to run that next week…kinda nervous for it! Aren’t the runs where you surprise yourself with pace the best? 🙂
Good luck next week! 😀 you’ll LOVE it. I feel like 15k is the perfect distance. Not too short or too long!
Great week of running! 15k is a great distance–far enough that you have to pace yourself, but you can push it a bit. I haven’t run for 2 days and I’m a little antsy…
Nice progression and long run! It’s always a confidence booster to run a workout well with hills 🙂
right? I thought my watch was lying to me! I emailed my coach saying “so this MIGHT be wrong….” haha
Great week! Very fast!!!
Congrats on nailing your runs and on the 15k! My week was pretty lame in comparison, mostly because I was sick and missed/bombed all my workouts. Hopefully this week goes better!
but hey, you made some amazing looking food according to your blog! I made next to nothing. Ramen and eggs hahahaha
My week is awesome! I missed strength training yesterday but still awesome.
So happy you had a great week! Here’s to one more! 🙂
Sounds like a great week! I am struggling not running for a month due to a shoulder injury 🙁
hoping your shoulder gets better asap!
You had a great week and looks like a nice 15K in the sun! My week so far has been great, back to running outside, this time on a trail! and then an awesome pool workout today!
