Seriously, y’all. What happened to all my motivation of a year ago? I ran four times a week, I ate healthy, I was totally focused on being healthier. Fast forward to now, and it’s all I can do to finish like 5 things on my to-do list, much less everything. Ha. As if. I’ve been… Continue reading my low-key half-marathon “training plan”…a.k.a. “laziness keeps making me start over”
This week has been pretty “meh” as far as workouts go. In other words, I’ve been feeling pretty lazy. Sigh… Monday: worked 14 hours or so for a total of 13,282 steps (6.29 miles). Tuesday: Holiday.

Then I started trying to run again, and life and laziness kept getting in the way. So, here I am… Continue reading when a mile feels like a marathon
Obviously, I didn’t have enough time to update my workouts this week. I did end up going for a run last Sunday afternoon. Outside, on the trails, in the heat. Not fun.
