Almost A Tuesday 5K

Starting off the week with a short “easy” run even though my training called for an interval run. Even though I’m typically one to follow a training plan pretty closely, I know where I’m at right know with my fitness level.

I’m adjusting the plan to allow myself to start pushing my fitness level forward, and not end up being discouraged on every run. I know that I’m pretty far physically from where I was at even only a year, and definitely 2 years ago when I has a pretty great 25K run. Whether I can say that I’ll be able to get back to where I used to be I can’t say for certain, but at this point my goal is to simply continue to run.

    First Snowy Run, First Ice Beard

    The winter running season has officially begun. It was just a light snow so the sidewalks were still clear for the most part. We’ll see what they’re like tomorrow after the snow accumulates. I’m not on a new training plan but an easy 6 mile run seemed like a good distance to shoot for. #HWI…

    First Training Run Since Sierra Leone

    Got my first run in since coming back from #SierraLeone after trying to recover from jet lag and a cold. Felt great to be back out there, definitely with a whole new perspective of why I’m running. Spent a lot of time thinking about those I encountered in Sierra Leone as well as those running…
