Here we go..

Slowly starting to feel good again, I ran this morning while my mother in law watched my kids. I did a 3 mile warm up then 4x400s with 90 sec. rest at Beus Pond. Splits 82, 85, 83, 82. I was still feeling pretty tired, but I'm hoping I can continue doing some type of workout over the next couple months to keep some kind of fitness level when I have my next baby.

Run in my windy neighborhood.

I hit the trails this morning.

Point to Point run this evening, I ran from my house to the Riverdale frisbee golf/bike park. AP 7:55

6.3 miles in the heat of the evening. I stopped early because I had to use the bathroom.

My mother in law watched my kids this morning while I did the South Weber days 5k route for a tempo run. 2 mile warm up, 3 mile tempo, and 2 mile cool down. Tempo splits: 6:36, 6:32, 6:34. Time 19:46 AP 6:34 It felt harder then before. I guess it'll keep getting a little tougher to do these workouts each week.

7 miles this morning from my house. AP 8:39

10 miles on the Bonneville shoreline trail. AP 9:20

Some running down in Provo after Riley ran the Utah Valley Half.

I ran 15 minutes on the treadmill, then the rest of the run was with Angie in South Weber.

20 minutes on the treadmill then another 45 minutes outside.

I attempted a workout today, workouts are getting more difficult by the week. I didn't have any particular plan today. I just did an easy step down but each interval I did left me worn out and tired for the next one. I feel like my body is going downhill fast and I'm not even halfway through this pregnancy yet. Today I did 1000, 1000, 800, 600, 200, 400. 3:52, 3:53, 3:04, 2:20 (really tired already), 34 (not quite a 200), 88. I was supposed to do 2x400 for my last 2 but I was so worn out. I forced myself to do that last 400 and not worry about how fast. Then I ended with a really slow cool down.

Beautiful morning in South Weber, perfect temperature and no wind.

Riley and I had our 10 year anniversary today, we decided to start the morning off by running Lewis Peak. I've never run it, it was a beautiful trail. I struggled running up the first 2.5 miles I walked/jogged. It was tough but I'm glad I did it. Great run!

6 tired miles in the hot wind.

2.3 miles on the treadmill then 5 more miles outside in the heat.

2.3 miles on the treadmill, then 5.3 miles outside. I do a little on the treadmill so I don't have to run a full hour out in the heat.

I did a 2 mile warm up and decided to try a 3 mile tempo. Miles 1 and 3 were mostly downhill and mile 2 was mostly uphill. I struggled big time on mile 2, it's hard to stay motivated doing these workouts. Splits: 6:38, 7:23, 6:45. 2 mile cool down.

7 miles on the Uintah trailhead. I felt better today. AP 8:23

6 easy miles in South Weber.

I decided last minute to come run this 5k clear up in Pleasant View. Riley talked me into it a little bit, letting me know it was a fast downhill course. I get tired pretty fast nowadays, I didn't want anything too difficult, but I also wanted another 5k to race. There was also some cash that went to 1st and 2nd place. I got out at the start but after 10 feet there was a high school girl in front. I figured there would be someone in front, she pretty much led the rest of the way, I think I ended up losing to her by 20 seconds. She was a cute girl and a strong runner for Weber High School. The first mile was on a canal road which was fairly flat. Riley wasn't kidding when he said there was a lot of downhill, the 2nd mile was all screaming downhill, which left my legs feeling a little jello-y at the start of mile 3. Mile 3 was similar to the first mile more flat and one uphill, then the last .11 was a very fast finish. I was pleasantly surprised by my time for 15 weeks preggo, I'll take it. Splits: 6:32, 6:01, 6:34, .11-34 sec.

2.3 miles on the treadmill, then I went outside to finish with another 5 miles. I made it 4.4 miles because it was soooo hot, then I took my kids for a slow jog the rest of the way.

3.5 miles on my treadmill, then 3.7 outside. 100 degrees again.

 I did a workout today, at this point I'm just trying to do some kind of workout once a week. I wanted to do something attainable for me, my last few workouts have felt hard. I did 10x 1 min off/on. I felt better today doing this type of workout. I'll probably be doing these from here on out as long as I can.

6.3 miles on the Unitah trail head. That's all I had time for, when I got home I finished 7 more minutes on the treadmill to make it 7 miles.
