I’ve had a pretty good week! Last Tuesday I was all jazzed up to use my Apple Watch. It’s gonna be great- forget that dumb Map My Run! So I took it off the charger and slapped it on…. And the charger wasn’t plugged in. Doh! Darn. Back to MMR for 3.5.
So my mid week runs are now 3.5 on T/Th and 2 on Wednesdays. But I havent been awesome at Wednesdays. Yesterday (Tuesday) the alarm went off at 5:15 and I was like nope, I’ll run after school. There was a little voice that was like realllyyy?? But I was like yep. I’m doing it. Next week it bumps up to 4 and I dont want to get up any earlier, so I’m gonna have to switch anyway. So I go to school, teach and am tired after school. But I’m like I’ll rest for an hour and go out at 5:30. Sooooo at 5:30 I check the weather. It’s 86 degrees. Dang it!! Even after the sun sets it’s gonna be like 82. So I didnt run yesterday,
But I did run this morning. So I’m just shifting my runs a day this week and won’t do Saturday cross which let’s be real, there was a 50/50 chance of me doing it anyway, But I am going to do the “Wednesday“ run tomorrow. I was hoping for after school, but it’s still 82. It’s supposed to be mid 70s next week so I’m hoping I can switch to after school. Well or just Tuesday actually. Then we are off. Maybe I’ll switch the days around again a bit since I dont have work W-F. Hmmm….
5 miles on the weekend went well. I used a 60:30 and it worked well. I’m gonna try to fuel halfway through this weekend. I’m trying Gu, but I think it didn’t agree with me in 2019. I also wasnt taking it with water, so I’ll try that.
Apple Watch went well! I do miss the splits as I go. It vibrates but I cant get back to it. I’m sure it’s user error!
