Streak Days 13 - 17

Again, I can’t believe I have achieved the goal of running every WORK day for two weeks!!

Monday was almost a train wreck as I did not run before going to the office. I had to go in early and handle an issue before an “asap” meeting. I was in a horrible mood ALL day, but was determined to not break the streak. I finally squeezed in a treadmill run at 8:30 p.m. Note to self: DO NOT let work get in the way of the streak….

Tuesday’s goal was simply to run and get the pre-work running streak back on track. Mission accomplished! (10:56 avg pace)

A combination of temps, humidity and wind made Wednesday’s entire run seemed like a struggle. My splits were strong and evenly paced so no whining allowed. (10:47 avg pace)

Thursday morning was another yes, no, yes, no debate. Wednesday was a late night at the office capped off with two Tylenol PM so I wanted to stay in the bed… Reality is the heat index will be 100+ after work and I am not in the mood for another treadmill run, so GET UP and run!! (10:57 avg pace)

Friday morning’s run included an ever so slight drizzle. My heart wanted to do mile repeats, but my head knew the next day included a 9.3 mile loop of the lake. Common sense prevailed and I ran for fun. (10:38 avg pace)
