Getting back to posting.
Yesterday: 50 mins of free weights and weight machines + 3mi run. I like to measure my lifting by adding all the reps together (it helps steer away boredom) so this would be 675 reps
Lots of fruit and veggies. Like apple, orange, fruit Smoothie, salad and baby carrots, lots.
Today: Sore! 330 reps plus 2.5 mi on the treadmill with 1.6mi of speedwork, .4mi of hills and .5mi cool down jog.
So far, egg white sandwich, coffee! and maybe some leftover jello salad. (I couldn't let it go to waste!)
Workout check-in
At the gym:
5 K on the treadmill + 40 mins free weights
I've been thinking about when and where my next race will be. I am pretty sure I want to my first marathon next October in Baltimore.
But, the Pittsburgh marathon in May is also enticing. My family would be there to see me and I could run 26 miles in my hometown. But, a May marathon would require winter training, beginning in mid-January. So my options would be freezing my but off outside or logging mileage on the treadmill.
New PR
2 miles in 16:56 this morning = 8:28 minuter per mile :)
After a couple weeks of running between 2 and four miles a few times a week, I completed a 6mi run this morning. It felt great and I'm slowly getting back to where I belong!
Now that I'm back into running, I realize I'm going to need a new and more supportive pair of shoes.
Since I can remember I've been purchasing the on sale Nikes or New Balances I find out the outlets or Kohl's, but I think it's time to invest some money in shoes I spend so much time in.
Thinking about these Brooks Glycerin meant for high mileage running. At $130, it would be a splurge, but hopefully worth it.

Slowly but surely
I'm back!!!
After a few weeks off (nearly four!) I can start running again little, by little. I put in 3 mi today and although my stride felt off it still felt good.
After thinking about it long and hard, I've decided to sit out of the marathon. I will ask them to hold my spot for next year though.
I had my heart set on running this race, but I guess it isn't my time.
So, instead, I will give my foot time to fully heal. I'll do more yoga and lift weights and slowly work my way back to running again.
Welp. She looked at the x-ray I brought and confirmed it's a darn good stress fracture.
Good news:
It's in the best place for healing
It's not swollen
I'm no longer limping
I can still run if I REALLY want to
Bad news:
Running will likely make it worse
