When you stop to take a call from your kid because of an Xbox argument and then you look up and realize the sheep are all right there and staring at you 😂

Running got pushed down the priority list this last week, but I had to get in at least a few miles before the half tomorrow to remind my legs what they need to do! Not certain I can keep this pace for 14 miles, but meh we will see what I can do 🤷🏻‍♀️

Note to self...if you're gonna run on the nature trail, invest in a headlamp. . #runnersofinstagram #haverfordnaturetrail #nightrunning #gotalight #halftraining #miamihalfmarathon #marathontraining #whidbeyislandmarathon #runnersofdelco https://www.instagram.com/p/BrjAXEKjU0A/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=zdpsrgr879ek

Two miles with intervals. So pretty 🤗

Ten miles! I threw in some quarter mile intervals too. It actually helped pass the time and the miles seemed to go by pretty quick. And I’m pleased with my overall pace, which I think the intervals helped with.

Gorgeous day for a run! ☺️

You can’t tell from my face in the pic, but I’m pretty happy with this run. Running by feel and ending up with negative splits is prett fantastic.

Two miles of intervals was a great way to end the day!!

My calves were super tight today so a little shake out run to help em out. 👍🏼

I didn’t look at my watch at all on this run and just ran on feel. I focused on keeping a rhythm with my arms. I’m definitely pleased with my splits; especially with the wind. And planning the wind at my back for the last two miles was a wise choice! I had a little gas in the tank at the end. I’m feeling more ready for the half in two weeks. 🙌🏻

Also...I find it amusing that my last mile pace is exactly the pace I would need in order to PR my half 🤦🏻‍♀️

Now time to shower and hope nothing chafed too bad.
