Is March over already? I just lost a whole month of my life. I have no idea where it went.
Is this what happens after running your first half? Maybe? It might just be the haze of winter finally ending. I have no clue. After my run this afternoon, I will be at 33 miles for the closing of the month. Low miles, but I was sick the first couple weeks and still babying some injuries. I don't even really want to talk about them right now b/c I feel like I'm always talking about injuries. I'm pretty happy to see March go, even if I don't know where it went. I'm also pretty happy to see this neverending cold/hacking I've had go away too.
Looking through my phone for pictures from this month didn't glean any perspective either, I have horses (petsitting), 5K with Rey, Veronica Mars movie day, and cupcakes (naturally)...
You thought I meant eating cupcakes, right? (ahem...I did that too, I admit it) but this is for my PHM 2015 costume. Yep. Planning has kept me sane, don't judge! ;)
I'm still working on a training plan as well. I'm not sure what said plan will be, mostly because I'm not sure what my body is willing to do right now. I'm just running 3x a week right now, a couple 3-4 milers and then trying to do a long run. My attempt at a long run this week ended in just 4 miles. For some reason it was just really hard and I was worried about pushing it more with the foot issues I'm having.
Confession time as well: I missed my 1 year Blogiversary. I knew it was in March, but it slipped my mind and passed me right by on the 12th. I had wanted to do a giveaway of my very favorite running gear (Sparkleskirts!) but now is not really the time financially to be doing a giveaway, so I'm a bad blogger and I'm just letting March slide away without celebrating it. Maybe in the summer I will do a "Very-Merry-Un-Blogiversary" post!
What I do know is that April is always sunnier and warmer than March and I'm looking forward to it! We're getting warmer weather and all of my runs have been outside and that is SO NICE! Bring on spring!!
Did March fly by for you? Ever find yourself struggling to figure out a training plan in between races? Most importantly...has spring arrived for you yet?!?!?! I hope so!
Oooo planning costumes already! Nice! :0) If it involves cupcakes, I am going to guess maybe Vanellope Von Schweetz?
ReplyDeleteHAPPY BLOGIVERSARY Karen!! It's been so fun getting to know you over the last year. I can't wait to meet you in person!
Thanks Lauren! Nope, not Vanellope!
DeleteHappy blogiversary!
ReplyDeleteI've never really trained for anything other than fall races so it'll be a new thing for me to be done with my half on Sunday. If I feel good, I'll run another one at the end of the month. And then, I'll be at a bit of a loss. I think running some 5Ks and 10Ks in between is a great idea!
Spring FINALLY arrived this past week. Let's hope it stays!
Yes! It has arrived here as well and I'm loving running outside so much!
DeleteMy comments are disappearing into thin air apparently! Sorry if this posts twice! Happy blogiversary! The last six months have flown by for me (work plus races) and I'm just now coming out of my work craziness. I've honestly been in a funk for a while now, I think it's a lot centered on feeling like I'm stuck in my weight and my speed and my blogging. Here's to hoping the shoes, feet, weather and mood all align up for you soon!
ReplyDeleteI only see this one (and was only emailed this one, so it must be the only one!) Thanks! Oh, now I see why I've been in a funk! You are in one! LOL. Ok, you have to get out of the funk and then I can too! ;)
DeleteWell, I have this whole week off, so hopefully we'll both be feeling much better soon! :)
DeleteHappy blogiversary!
ReplyDeleteThank you Desiree!
DeleteI'm happy to see march go as well. It has had me in a funk as well. Not much running for me as you know. I had a total of 10 lousy miles in and most of them were a combination of walking. O well! So funny you posted a piece of your costume for next year because we were just thinking up ours and you will fit right in...hint hint!!!
ReplyDeleteI have a whole theme going for 2015, so if my Cupcake/Eat Me iron on matches your idea, then my 10K costume will as well! I'm doing it with my roomie and we'll be running the 10K together for pics! I can't wait to see you again Meranda! Just 10 months and 18 days! LOL
DeleteHow fun! I'm excited for it to be April 1 so that I can pass my Oral Comps (HOPEFULLY) and then just coast until graduation. Fingers crossed!!
ReplyDeleteOoooh, fingers crossed for you Rachel!!! And then EUROPE!!!!!!!! WOOT! So excited for you!
DeleteIt happens to the best of us! I love that you pet sit horses!!!! SO COOL! I cannot wait to see your finished costume for next years Glass Slipper Challenge.
ReplyDeleteAnd I LOVE the clip of Ms. Jay hahahahahah
Heehee! I'm excited about my costumes for next year. I'm totally geeking over it and it's 10+ months away! Ah well, have to have something to look forward to and since I can't get away for any other races, this will do!
DeleteI swear every month flies by, I am always looking back thinking where did the time go! This week has been so crazy, I am enjoying that I finally have my first night to sit back relax and catch up on blogs:)
ReplyDeleteLove that your already planning and working on your costume for next year, so fun!!!!
