Inspiration Wednesday

Thanks again to my awesome friend, Carin over at Mommy's Racing Diaries I have my inspiration today not only for my being fit, but also for the development of my business. And because you all are so fabulous, I am going to share.

Just remember, progress, no matter how small, is still progress and that is an awesome thing!!!!

Wednesday - Fire 45 EZ, bowling
Thursday - rest day (no run :( )
Friday - Low HIIT 25, bowling
Saturday - yard work, 1 mile walk
Sunday - 12 mile run

Schedule for next week -

Monday - Turbo Fire Tone 30, HIIT 15
Tuesday - 3 mile incline run
Wednesday - Fire 45 EZ
Thursday - 3 mile run
Friday - Core 20 Class, Stretch 40
Saturday - 21 mile run

Goals for next:
1. Complete all my training
2. drink 100 oz of water daily

Not so fabulous Friday

Unfortunately, this is not a fabulous Friday for us runners. One of my very good running friends was out running this morning with one of her friends, and her friend was hit and killed by a car. My heart is just breaking for my friend. They were both wearing lights, and it appears that the car just didn't see them. Here's the article.


Please be extremely careful when running in the dark, you just never know where there might be a car. I'm sorry that I can't have some happy news for you today, but I am just too upset right now.

Inspiration Wednesday

Here's your inspiration for the day.

Mamavation Monday

I had a pretty good week again. My mojo seems to still be there - woot woot!!!!!! But, I still find it really hard to get motivated to do my long runs. I only have 7 more weeks until my marathon, I have no choice but to do these runs. Thankfully I have an awesome running buddy that kicks my butt into gear :D Here's my rap up of last week -

Monday - Turbo Fire Fire 45EZ
Tuesday - 3.1 mile run (Cupcake Classic Virtual Run), 1 mile walk
Wednesday - Turbo Fire Core 20, bowling
Thursday - 19 mile run
Friday - rest (drive to Georgia)
Saturday - hike to the top of Amicalola Falls (the falls are 729 ft high)
Sunday - walking while apple picking

Schedule for next week -
Monday - Turbo Fire Low HIIT 20, ab ignitor
Tuesday - 3 mile run
Wednesday - Turbo Fire Fire 45 EZ
Thursday - 3 mile run
Friday - Low HIIT 25
Saturday - 12 -13 mile run
Sunday - rest


By the way, it was absolutely beautiful in the Blue Ridge Mountains. The leaves were at their peak color :)

Inspiration Wednesday

It seems like I am reading about a lot of people losing their mojo again. Thankfully, I haven't but I wanted to post some inspiration for those who are.

Wow - it's Monday, already??? Last weekend went by so quickly!!!! Yesterday, I was able to have a girls day out, and my sisters-in-law, mother-in-law and I went to the Southern Woman's Show. This is something we have been doing for over 10 years, and we always have such a great time. Check out my attempt at a vlog and let me know what you think. Now on to the recap of my week. I did ok, I didn't get a workout in every day, but I'm okay with that. I got 4 days in, so it wasn't like I completely slacked.

Monday - rest (I felt I needed it after my 17 mile run)
Tuesday - 3 miles incline run, 1 mile walk
Wednesday - Turbo HIIT 15, Sculpt 30, bowling
Thursday - rest
Friday - 1 mile walk
Saturday - 12 mile run
Sunday - 5.2 mile walk (Woman's Show and IKEA)

I did pretty well with my water intake and I drank my shakeology 6 days out of 7.

Here are my goals for this week -

Monday - Turbo Fire Fire 45 EZ
Tuesday - 3 miles speedwork
Wednesday - Turbo Fire Core 20 and Stretch 40
Thursday - 19 mile run
Friday - probably a rest day, since we are driving to Georgia
Saturday - I'm sure we will do a ton of walking and hiking
Sunday - easy run
