Monday, September 7th – 7.37 mile run

Tuesday, September 8th – 8.5 mile run

Wednesday, September 9th – Rest Day

Thursday, September 10th – 10.42 mile run

Friday, September 11th – 7.27 mile run

Saturday, September 12th – 11.11 miles of running (8.08 solo miles, 3.03 miles with the hubby)

Almost 57 miles during another terrible heatwave?! HECK TO THE YES! I even got in three days in the double digits (even if two of them were split into two separate runs). This weather has been killer, but I am stoked that I've still been able to get out there and keep accruing miles. The temps are supposed to start going down soon (in the low 80s instead of the mid 90s.... Tuesday it even hit 101* in Oceanside, YUCK!), so I'm hopeful that the runs will start to feel a little easier. Besides the heat and humidity, everything else has been feeling okay. I think next week will be a cutback week (since I've had three weeks in a row of over 50 miles) and I'll enjoy some shorter runs or maybe an extra rest day. 

How were your workouts this past week?

Some people do a "Wordless Wednesday" post, where they simply share a photo or image, but I thought I'd make a little series out of my Wednesdays. And since I love alliteration so much, why not go with Walt Wednesdays (obviously everyone can use a little break from the seriousness, scariness and sassiness of life - and what better way to help put a smile on your face than with a cute wiener dog picture, am I right?!)... So, without further ado...

WALT WEDNESDAY!

When life gets overwhelming, how do you de-stress? 

Workout Recap - Week 36

Sunday, August 30th – 7.47 mile run

Monday, August 31st – 7.27 mile run

Tuesday, September 1st – 10.5 mile run

Wednesday, September 2nd – 7.27 mile run

Thursday, September 3rd – Rest Day

Friday, September 4th – 12.21 mile run

Saturday, September 5th – 8.08 mile run

My runs at the beginning of the week were pretty rough. The heat and humidity were zapping my energy and everything just felt hard. I took a rest day on Thursday and thankfully the temps dipped a bit towards the end of the week, which led to a couple of stronger feeling runs on Friday and Saturday. I haven't had a cutback week in a while, so maybe I'll dial the mileage back a bit next week (seeing as I ran almost 53 miles this week - which is the most I've run in quite some time).
