It got me & training recap

Well. The stomach bug finally got to me last Friday. The notice on our girls daycare door just said ‘vomiting’, so IYKYK. I actually recovered fairly quickly, which I was super thankful for. Last year when I had their stomach bug I think I was out for almost a week. I took two extra rest days last week, so had a lower mileage overall. Also have been loving this combo for my Epsom salt baths.

I got feel like the girls are trying to tell me that I need to bike more without using any words…

I finished this book this morning and it was so so good. If you loved The Nightengale by Kristin Hannah, then I think you’ll love this one too.

Strength training last week was one solo session & one with the girlies. I’m also really excited about it starting to get lighter earlier because I really miss running outside in the mornings (winters are tough!).

  • Monday: 6 mile run & hill strides, 30 min full body strength. Got to run outside when the girls napped (husband watched the monitor!)

  • Tuesday: 5 mile run outside! & 20min Pilates

  • Wednesday: rest day

  • Thursday: 12 mile run with a fast finish (~7:45ish average), 30 min full body strength

  • Friday: stomach bug rest day

  • Saturday: recovered- rest day

  • Sunday: quality session 7 miles with 10min tempo (~7:25 average) & hill work

Total mileage: 30.6 miles

Strength sessions: 2 + Pilates

Stretching sessions: 0? I think… that’s sad!
