June Recap/Stats

Miles Planned/Ran: For the third month in a row, I ended up with zero miles ran. I am hoping this will not be the case ever again. But for what it's worth between biking and swimming the last two+ weeks I did manage to rack up almost 40 miles of activity! (If it counts on DM it must surely count here right? LOL!)

Rest Days Planned/Taken: How ever many needed / 15

Xtraining Workouts Planned/Ran: As many as possible / 15

Most Enjoyable Workout: My first ride outside w/ Spike a couple Saturday's ago. Pure bliss!

Current Reads: (Reading/Still Reading) Here Be Dragons by Sharon Kay Penman (Finished) None. I suck.

Current Shame-Inducing Guilty Pleasure: Pinterest - I can't stop pinning!!!

Current Obsessions: Juicing and blending. Fresh fruits and veggies in liquid form that actually tastes good? Yes please.

Current Drink: I am ashamed to admit I have been pounding Sugar Free Red Bulls lately. Bad Redhead.

This is what happens when you pretend you're 18 again and can stay out all night.

Current Song: "Be Ok" by Ingrid Michealson because I just want to "Be Ok" on Tuesday! Fingers crossed!


Current Wish-List: New digital camera, a romantic getaway with Spike, a road bike, the perfect summer dress.

Current Need: For those x-rays on Tuesday to "Be Ok", so I can once and for all be done with this whole injury b.s.

Current Triumph: Returning to xtraining pain free!

Current Bane of my Existence: DAS BOOT!!!

Current Goal: (Repeated from March, April, and May) To stay positive and focused on active recovery/xtraining so I can hit the ground running sooner rather than later. *Fingers crossed*

Current Indulgence: Voskos Honey Vanilla Bean Greek Yogurt, nom-nom!!!

Current Blessings: The continued love, encouragement, and support from my family, friends, and Spike throughout this ridiculous extended-injury nonsense.

Current Excitement: There is SO much going on in July that I can hardly contain my excitement! Holiday weekends, weddings, babies, trips, 30 Day Picture Challenge, AND my R2R!!! (Return 2 Running)

How'd your June shape up?!?!

Running is what you make of it, make it an Adventure!™

Running Ricig said...

Totally counts if it's on DM.

What the heck is pinterest?? I've seen people posting about it, but I seriously don't get it.

Sounds like July is going to be packed and awesome!

Positive vibes coming your way!!!

Personally, I think the road bike should be #1 on the wish list :)

Danielle said...

TUESDAY!!! ahhh. I will be thinking about you! That boot is seriously a pain in the ass. Pretty sure Spike should have a huge celebration for you when those X-Rays come back perfect!!
Soooo does this mean you don't get to rock the boot with a dress? : )

Yeah, I discovered pinterest recently and it is strangely addictive. Love the running/fitness pins I see there. Very inspirational!

June was a schizophrenic freak-show for me. Running was the only aspect of the month that went well, but then June decided to pile it on, and I got the flu! Really, the Flu in June! You've gotssssss to be kidding! I spent the better part of Wednesday having fevered delusions about ganache recipes (which I know f@ck-all about). Anyway, I'll stop complaining. I really hope that Tuesday goes well for you. I know this has been really rough on you, but I do want to say that you have handled it so well. I have a great deal of respect for you, and I am sure that I am not the only one of you readers, who has been impressed by you.

Its always a bummer when you really want to run but can't :( Good luck on Tuesday though, that's always nerve wracking!
