Hello there, FS Friends! Things here are going well. The training plan for my half-marathon in 7 weeks is going splendidly! Sunday was another 7-mile run and I somehow managed to knock 30 seconds per mile off last week's pace and the run was much easier than last week too! These longer runs on the weekends, are really helping to build my confidence that I'll actually be able to complete a half-marathon in less than 2 months. And I'm also really learning to thoroughly enjoy running. I don't listen to music when I run. I just listen to the peace and quiet and singing birds while I encounter so many friendly, smiling faces on the path. It's almost a meditative time where it's just me, in nature, alone with my thoughts, and a gift of time to visualize all of the things I want to accomplish. Yesterday was a "rest day" from running, but I found myself just itching to run! I'm so glad today is a run day! 2 miles, 2x(1:00, 1:30, 2:00) Aerobic Intervals, then another 2 miles. Weekday runs are on the basement treadmill, so they're not nearly as "meditative". I just have a running playlist of fun songs for the treadmill to keep me motivated.
Foodwise, the soup and salads I prepped this weekend have definitely lightened the kitchen workload for the rest of the week, which really frees up time for studying, thankfully. I'm hoping to get through another 2-3 chapters this week. *fingers crossed* Yes, I have an entire week of lentil & mushroom soup and marinated beet salad, but at least I don't have to spend 2+ hours a day in the kitchen! I also think I'm getting a handle on the increase in my appetite from running without going hog wild and devouring everything in the pantry at the end of the day!
Have a fabulous week, Folks! :)
