Running today!! Another week over!! Yippee!! Beautiful sunset.. Had to stop and take in a mindful moment. Running and mindfulness...(two in one)

Longest run!! Getting cooler, but was still pooped at the end lol my half marathon was called off.. :( Still going to build up miles and make a plan from there! Have some skirt shorts. They still in style? Either way.. They are all I have to wear sometimes so the running fashion police will just have to deal with it lol

Running and hiking this weekend! Muddy hike te he he.. Warm mid-day run.. Urghh!!!

Pictures from some of my runs this week. Every time I run during the day my clothes come back quite sweaty, but think I am slowly adjusting to the warmer climate and humidity. Also found a great way to keep my indoor cat entertained (thanks to mum).. Placing food in cartons and having her try to get it out. Long run scheduled tomorrow. Will plan to start early. Happy weekend everyone!!

Had an amazing day at ironman. Volunteered and spent time with friends. Decided to run to the event. And throughout the day I put in over a half marathon amount of running and walking!! Lol it was great to cheer on many of the participants. Came home tired but happy!!

Woohoo!! My first 8 miler in Hawaii!! I finished my entire water bottle though!! Lol may have to bring two for 13.1 lol A smooth 82F and a nice occasional breeze with no sun looming over. If anyone has any tips on running in humidity I would be very interested to hear them? Still feel like I am over heating sometimes! Happy weekend everyone 😊

Went for a run today. It was really cool seeing so many people out exercising today. They are taking over Alii Drive day and night. There is a true buzz with this ironman event in town. It definitely inspired me to get out and go for a run. Can’t wait to volunteer and be part of this fun event!!

Fun weekend in Las Vegas and Los Angeles. Ran at the gym in Vegas and got a swim in. Also ran outside in Las Vegas. Legs were tired by the end of the week, but made it through most of my running schedule. Interested to see how this frequency of running days will impact my running. Hope you all have a nice week... =)

Gym day yesterday lower body stuff and run. Then run today! Wore my long pants and actually did okay in the heat! Trying to keep on schedule as much as possible 😊 went turtle sigh seeing, snorkeling and hiking last weekend. Now off to start an early weekend!

[runningthroughgraduateschool]

Finally got a schedule together. Starting a little late into this program, but it is doable. This is a new training schedule for me, interested to give it a go! Got it from one of the runners in our running group! Just made a few adjustments. Will start off this week with an eight miler for my long run then ten. Going to be in Las Vegas seeing the hubby, so will be interesting to see where I end up running. If anyone has any suggestions for a location to run that is near the strip that would be great?
