Weekly wrap-up

What a busy week!  It's still busy, but I have a bit of time between my morning and mid-day sits to do my weekly update.  I ran Monday, Thursday, and Sunday this week, it made it feel like I didn't run as much but at least I got in 11 miles and for a busy week, that's not bad for me.  This morning's run was the best, I ran with Dallas (my son) and I ran slower since he has been running on the TM and hasn't been outside lately.  I wanted to make sure I wasn't going to fast for him and that ended up being SO NICE!  Sometimes I am so wound up about my pace that I forget to just slow it down a bit and enjoy the run.  

Working on speed is important to me because I love to challenge myself, but sometimes you just need to embrace the run and your surroundings and not worry about speed so much.  I really loved our run this morning, I even snapped a picture WHILE running, I was pretty impressed.  Usually my shots are blurry if I don't stop to get the shot.  It was a beautiful morning run!



In other news, Elsa is learning to drink out of a bowl instead of her bottle.  
It's SLOW going as you will see below...LOL





I hope everyone is enjoying Memorial Day Weekend!

    1. Thanks! I was pretty impressed with myself for not getting a blurry shot. I think I just got lucky! LOL. She is totally NOT getting the drinking from a bowl concept. We're still working on it.

  4. Great photos. Elsa is adorable!! And thanks for the reminder, I've gotten so wound up about speed that I haven't gone for just a fun run without worrying about distance or pace in months. Guess I have something to add to my list for next weekend! Glad you got some good runs in!

    1. It was nice to just enjoy and not worry about it...I tried again a couple days later but had the garmin on and couldn't help myself. LOL. I just cannot relax and stop worrying about time if I have it on!

  5. I love how very young puppies and kittens insist on getting into the bowl to eat and drink. :)

    1. It's so freaking adorable, even if she is a crazy mess and has to have a bath every day!
