Hi friends! I’m sweating buckets here in DC – it’s so much hotter/more humid here than it was at the beach last week! Gross. I met my track group this morning at Yorktown High School and we all said it felt kind of like we were swimming. Hello, 1000% humidity, it’s not nice to see you.
This morning’s workout was mile repeats, and the coaches had me do three of them. I wasn’t feeling my speediest today but still ended up having some good splits. The average pace on my watch surprised me, considering how rough I felt – guess I was going pretty fast after all!
If you’re wondering why I’m wearing that blue Brooks tank top (that they gifted me earlier this summer) in basically every running photo recently, it’s because it’s amazing and super lightweight. I tried to buy a couple more on their website but they are sold out in my size. Sadness! I want it in every color!
Anyway – I’m hoping that Maine next weekend for the 10k (the Beach to Beacon 10k with Cabot as part of the Cabot Fit Team) is niiiiiice and cold on race day. 🙂
As for yesterday’s workout, I decided to kick off the workweek with a tough one! I hit up the 7 a.m. Urban Athletic Club (<—coupon code in that post) Urban Athlete class. I hadn’t been in awhile between vacation last week and timing not working out, so it was nice to get back to it!
Awesome and varied workout, as always. My arms are a bit sore today – we did a lot of upper body strength in addition to the usual squats, lunges, etc!
I’ve got a busy day ahead – a few AnneTheRD clients this afternoon, plus a fair amount of blog work to get done. I spent most of yesterday (in addition to catching up on emails) working on blog-related tasks and recipe development – this smoothie was awesome! I’ll be sharing the recipe soon. 🙂
Have a great day, everyone!
Is it really hot where you live right now, too?
