Despite the fact it was just a 5K, I needed an extra rest day...

  • 4 miles 10:34 AP
  • abs incl. 2 x 1 min planks

3100 S - Orchard Dr - past the cemetery - Main Street - 1400 S and back

Can't believe I used to run all the way up Sunnyside at the end of my loop and still have an AP in the 9's!  And now the "incline" on Orchard kills me.  It isn't even big enough to be called a hill!  If you were driving it, you would think it was a flat road.  Someday. =0)

  • 5 miles on Bountiful Blvd with the jogger

Good hill workout. Beautiful day!  (Garmin died halfway through, but the last time I had checked my AP was 10:38)

I did this same route Tuesday.  Today I lowered the AP by about 15 seconds per mile, but it didn't seem more difficult.  I felt like I could push it and that my turnover is getting quicker and I'm getting my midfoot strike back.  Feeling stronger overall.  All good things!  I love running. :)

I really wanted to run 4 or 5 this morning on Bountiful Blvd, but I'm playing it safe again today.  If I have even an inkling of an infection or otherwise from giving birth or feeding the babe, I back off.  I have no interest in going to the doctor/ER or being on anitbiotics because I did too much too soon!  That already happened to me once a week after she was born and we are not going there again.  I guess there's no rush, I'm still just 6 weeks out.  So...I'll enjoy a sleepy Sat morning with the fam and start again Monday! 

Hope you're all having a great pre-4th of July weekend. :)
