Heeey! And we’re back. I’m feelin’ kinda fried so let’s jump right into the workout recap, which is a two week edition since it’s been so long. It’s unremarkable except I think that five runs in a row may be my streak record? Pretty impressive stuff, I know.
Sunday, Dec 18 | rest
Monday, Dec 19 | 4.19 miles on the treadmill in 50 minutes; 70 minute ballet class
I was kinda burnt out on long runs and didn’t want to overextend myself inside taper time for WDW Marathon, anyway, so I planned this five-day streak in advance. Prepare for some serious deja vu.
Ballet class was the last of the semester, and I almost missed it; I didn’t realize that there was a Redskins home game that night and the Beltway was HORRENDOUS. Luckily I left early, but I just wanted to point out that football ruins everything.
