Half Marathon Training – Week 1 Wrap-Up

Thought it would be fun to post a quick training wrap-up after my long runs on Sundays. (click here for my entire half marathon training schedule)

This week was great! Exactly what I needed to kick my butt in the workout department.

It was hard heading out for the long run tonight. My tummy was bothering me and it was a long day with the kids. But I forced myself out the door–always the hardest part. Once I started I decided a slow trot is better than sitting home on the couch watching TV. Even if I walked I’d get a nice stroll outside on this beautiful day. That alone is worth it.

That’s what kept me going and before I knew it, the run was over. I walked a few times but am happy with my overall time.

Here’s how the rest of the week went…

Kicked my butt! Haven’t done yoga in at least 6 months! Only got 1.5 miles in. Strength training kicked my butt!
