Week 5 - Recap

Sorry, week 5 is almost over and I am just posting!

Had an emotional week, however, I was able to use that towards getting my running in. I never thought that I would look so forward to running. It was crazy busy at work, things happened in my personal life, and my mother & stepdad visited. In the end I was able to run...and it felt great! It was the first thing I thought about when I was sad, mad or stressed...and I thought about it often this week.

Wednesday seems to have become my longer running day. I was able to get in 5.5 miles between running before picking up Cameron and then around the track during his football practice. It was a day I needed it. Then, this past Friday I was able to run and did it around Bremerton over the bridges again. I ventured out a little different way and headed downtown near the ferry docks...it was so pretty. I think I'll check the distance and maybe I can add a different route to change things up.

The weekend I rest, however, I have a feeling I won't be able to as usual. I normally get in about 2 miles over the weekend. It's crazy to think but....I think I am addicted to running! ha,ha. Never thought I'd say that.

Now I think I need to get myself some gear for longer runs. I have something to hold my stuff, but I need a better bottle to run with and some thing to eat. People are telling me about some "gooey" stuff that you can eat while running to keep up your energy. Doesn't sound appealing, but needed I guess. I will have to take a trip to this cool store in Poulsbo called "Poulsbo Runner". Shopping! I love that too. :)

Well, have a great week! Until next week...week 6 here I come!
