Half Marathon Week 3

Posted on February 18, 2019 by runinboise

Wow, I can’t believe that it is week 3 of my training already. My goal race that I am training for has its registration open up next week, so time is just ticking away.

Sunday – Rest day and I rested. 🙂

My favorite day!

Monday – I did mention last week how I am really ready for spring and the warmer weather. Today was one of those days. I was going to brave the outside with the snow that has fallen over the weekend. But I didn’t. I suffered on the treddy for my 3 miles in my cold, dungeon of a basement. Downside is that I took my TV away from my treadmill and moved it to another room so I could watch the Super Bowl. But I have not put it back in front of my treddy, so it was just me and my treddy hanging out for 3 miles at an incline.

Perfect

Tuesday – I wanted to get my 4 mile trot done outside when I finished my errands, but I just wasn’t feeling it. I waited and waited to get it done, putting it off – I’ll do it tomorrow – but I didn’t. About 7:30pm I sucked it up and went down into the dungeon basement of the treadmill. I pounded out my 4 miles, slowly at first at a 3% incline, but sped up and lowered my incline at the last mile.

Wednesday – I had 3 miles to do today. With the weather being what it is, I had the plan that I was going to run outside in the big puffy flakes. When I got to the path where I was going to run, it started to rain. I was not dressed for the rain. So I dropped my other half for a an early valentine’s massage and went and completed my errands. I had the best intentions of getting on the treadmill when I got home

Thursday – Valentine’s day. My planned rest day and rested. I had another disappointing dinner at a “fancy” restaurant in town. It was a very long 2.5 hours of sitting for appetizer, entree and desert. I did more sitting starting at the wall waiting for each item to be brought out then eating. If I had not made the reservation under my name, I would have just flat out walked out without paying. Customer service and food quality was almost total garbage. (The asparagus was really good. The rest, so not worth the $90 we paid for all of it.)

Friday – This was to be my long run day. I didn’t want to do my long run, and just made up for run I didn’t do Wednesday. I just hopped on the treadmill while on the phone with my BFF who had to put his elderly dog down this week and is grieving hard. 3 pretty good treddy miles done!

Saturday – I had my annual Team Beef meeting today and spent the day with friends out of town. I met a couple of the Idaho Beef Council chairmen at the meeting, along with the Cowboy Ninja. He was a really nice guy with a lovely family. They all sat at the table that we seated ourselves at too.
