Week 8 and 9 Training Update

Miles walked the past two weeks: 28.6

Total Miles: 353.10 miles... I can't really measure mileage to my parents right now since Google rerouted after Hurricane Ike...so updates on that will have to wait.

Week 9 came and went without much training. It was Stephen's birthday and I was sick, so I took a week off to recover and finish details for his party. It was important to me that this particular week wasn't stressful-- that we could enjoy his birthday as a fun event. Actually, I began to notice that my obsessive approach to my training schedule was beginning to take a toll on my family. So it was a much-needed breath of fresh air for us.

I was back at it this week, but it happened to be a low-mileage week. Toward the end, the schedule fluctuates between low-mileage and high-mileage weeks. So it was nice to ease back into things after a week off. The weather was amazing, too! 86 degrees, breezy.....awesome!

7 weeks to go....
