#may miles

Hit my 20 miles a week weekly mileage goal! Also today was HOt! I had brunch (featuring a mimosa flight) and walked around the city with some friends from law school today and already hit like 12k steps from that alone. Then did this run that felt pretty rough because of the heat and the pollen and then FInALLY followed through on doing some resistance training/ core. Feeling the Sunday Scaries for real today!

Started off May with a short and sweet one 😊

Oregon sunrises and rain will always be my favorite running partners 🌧🌄

It's amazing how quickly I can go from hopeless to BADASS.

Work is seeming like a hopeless situation. This time of year is awesome because summer is almost here but awful because I don't know where my next paycheck will come from. I've got some tutoring lined up but I'm trying to figure out something else...not to mention finding a teaching gig for the fall.

Some days I feel like I was born to be a teacher. I'm awesome at delivering content and getting kids excited about learning. But I'm less interested in dealing with behavior issues/crazyness. I know it's a packaged deal but today my heart stopped while I watched a third grader charge at a family of geese and chuck a recess ball at the baby geese. I was convinced that he was going to kill a baby goose or get attacked by a mama goose. He is on the spectrum and was trying to get them off the field because that is what he's seen the gym teacher do. So....yeah. All I want to do is teach about electricity...not deal with animal cruelty.

So I came home and set out for my 1.5 miles. I smartly put my phone in a ziploc baggie because it started to rain less than half a mile in. I was cool with the rain but then it started thundering. I headed home quickly and only hit .96 miles. But my badassery kicked in and two hours later when the sun came out, I went back out to finish my miles! 

Then I practiced my cupcake swirls because I have my first cupcake gig next week!
