The Mongoose

Motivation was pretty low on Saturday and I had some aches and pains in my ankles so I didn't run that day. I decided that one of the reasons that it was so hard for me to get motivated the last couple of weeks was not having anyone to run with, so I texted Brianna and she was down to run with me today! Just an easy 4 miles but I felt much better. I did weights in the morning: squats, biceps, and triceps. I went with my dad early before running which made the legs pretty tired for the run but I don't know when I would go if I didn't do it in the morning, and I don't want to run before weights because I'd have to run at like 5 in the morning!!! No afternoon run.

5 eeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaasyyyyy with Brianna again today out by the new airport. Cold!

5 again this morning with Brianna. She's been awesome to run with me this week! It definitely makes running a lot more interesting. Really nice day today but it sure is chilly down there along the river! 

I got out before lunch for an easy 6 through Little Valley. Brianna couldn't come today so my pace was a bit faster than I've been running for the past few days and I definitely felt it, haha. Pretty tired but it was a good run. Weather was perfect.

Easy 4 this morning before weights. Deadlifts + shoulders. After that I went and saw Star Wars!!! Sooooooooo gooooooooooooooooood!!!!! 

10 easy in the afternoon. Really nice day for a run! I did the same 10 mike loop that I did a couple weeks ago but I changed up the finish a little. I felt good through 3 miles then I started to get a little tight in my left hip/glute and calf. The overall pace was just a little slower than last time but I’ve kind of had an off couple of weeks and this was my first week back in the weight room. Moving forward!
