So yes, I’ve been slacking on my traveling, and really only have one weekend left which will consist of me running, doing yoga, and packing. So I’ve decided that I will now use this blog to reach some of my other followers that may not be following my half-marathon training. You can find (and follow) the joint blog that Richard and I share about our half marathon here: http://13-1togo.tumblr.com/

Here’s the latest post:

I didn’t quite make it to 20 miles this week, but I sure was close. I ended up getting this horrible heat wave not once, but twice. In the middle of the week Chicago area was logging temps with heat index up to 110. So as much as I wanted to run outside, it wasn’t going to happen. So I went on the treadmill for 3 out of 4 runs this week. Then I headed to Boston to surprise Richard! He was indeed surprised. And it was the same heat wave, or another one, but there it was about 108 with heat index. So yeah, super hot. I ran my longest yet, 8 miles. It was an okay run. I got to do it with Richard so that was really nice. 

This week will be super busy. I’d like to have all of my work for my internship completed by next Monday. That way I can enjoy and take in as much as I can during my last week, next week. Also I’m doing a free week of hot (not Bikram) yoga this week. There’s a new place opening and if you know me, I always take advantage of free or discounted temp memberships at yoga places! 

Here’s the layout of last week:

Day 43: 4 mile run

Day 44: bike ride

Day 45: 3 mile run

Day 46: 4 mile run

Day 47: rest

Day 48: rest

Join me as I take on 12 road races over the course of a year, and become a new healthier me.
