Weekly Report: July 30 - August 5

I fell way short of my goal this week. I ran 3 miles this morning, hoping to up my mileage from 4 to 7, but Daily Mile didn't put in today's run with last week. Oh well! According to Nike, I have 6 days to run 10 more miles to meet my 30-miles-in-three-weeks goal. Now that school is starting again, I'm feeling like I'm going to be a little more on track. This week was just insane; I was at work from 8am until after 5 every day, and it stormed nightly.

On the bright side, I've begun to transition into morning runs, and now that I've started, I am very motivated to stick to it. I'm just too tired in the evenings and it's too easy to talk myself out of it. Going in the morning gets it out of the way, and has the added benefit of giving me bragging rights.

Now that the kids are back, my runs will likely be closer to 5:00am. I'm still tired/weaker in the morning, but I know my body will acclimate eventually.

So...here's to a strong start this week, even if last week was pathetic.
