Hey Actifiters!
I wrote this all up yesterday and forgot to hit post... So here it is.
Life sure has been busy over the past week. It's all been really good stuff though, just hasn't left me with much time to post about what's been going on.
I took the second half of last week off from work and my family and I plus my wife's parents took a road trip up to Seattle. A family friend of ours was getting married, we wanted to attend and decided to make an extended weekend vacation out of the trip. It was an 8-hour drive up and back, so getting there took almost all of Wednesday and getting back took almost all of Sunday.
It was a good first experiment for me to stick with running while being away from home. I managed to run on Thursday and Saturday morning continuing my cardio program. We also did a lot of additional walking visiting the zoo on Thursday and exploring around and taking a ferry on Friday.
Then yesterday was back at it with work, a lot of catch-up to do being on vacation 3 days last week. Week plus with all the walking we did over the weekend I definitely needed it to be a more restful day to give myself some time to recover.
This morning though, I got back into my cardio program and finished the 9-week plan for getting up to 5K. I'm not actually quite at 5K yet, I think the longest I've been able to go is about 2.8, mi in 30 minutes so I still need to work on my Pace. Pace. I'm at a bit of a crossroads though. 10K program or kind of sit at this point and try and work up to a true full 5K. I'm not sure there really is a right answer as long as I just keep running 🙂
I did get a fun treat on my run this morning though, and got to see a little flock so to speak of turkeys. The babies are sure grown up, but they're still kind of cute.
Even though I ran this morning, about midday today, I was feeling pretty stiff and sore so I thought taking a short lunch break walk would do me good. Glad I had thought about it a little bit earlier in the day cuz it was definitely already warm when I got out at about 11:00. Supposed to hit 100° f today so it's going to be pretty warm later
