Before I get into what we did this past week, I want to remind everyone that the Summer Run Scavenger Hunt starts TOMORROW. We are so excited for this. We have the list all made up ( will be posted on the blog tomorrow) and we have some companies that are going to be giving away some really cool prizes ( Sweatybands and Pro Compression are just a few)!
And also, you may have noticed that we have been skipping a post one day of the week ( it's usually been Thursdays). Well, there's a reason for this. We enjoy our readers VERY much, but we don't want to become overwhelming to the point where you become sick of us! This opens up a day of the week that we can also enjoy some of our other interest as well. With that being said, there will not be a Tasty Tuesday post tomorrow. ( Since I'm at the beach, it just makes it easier to skip that day anyway).
So, where is a look into how we spent our week. I know I for one need to be better at documenting how I spent my time because by the time the week ends, I have forgotten what I have done! Does anyone else ever feel like that?

Meranda
Sunday- Picnic with family. I got to see my great-grand mother and some other relatives I have not seen in a while.
Monday- Today I did my first real run ( outside) since my 6 weeks of PT. When I started out, I felt some tightness behind my knee and I thought it was going to give me a problem on my run, but it didn't. I did a very slow 3.1 miles because I was still a bit unsure of myself, but it was 3.1 miles none the less.
Wednesday- Took Baylee to the park for a walk with my friend who also has a Labrador. I enjoy talking to this friend while we walk because she is an athletic trainer and always has some good tips for me!
Thursday- I was debating if I could get a run in today before it started to rain. Turns out that I did another 3.1 miles ( still wasn't easy, but I did it). turns out, it never did rain anyway.
Saturday- I participated in my first Bark for Life. ( like a relay for life but for dogs).
Lacey
Sunday- Overnighted in Savannah and ran 5 miles.
Monday- Overnighted in White Planes NY. Did a mile trail run then finished with another mile of hill sprints.
Tuesday- Had a very long work day so decided to take the day off when I got home and went to bed early to catch up on my sleep.
Wednesday- After getting a good night's sleep. I got up and ran 8 miles. I then watched a Sex and the City Marathon all afternoon. After laying around all day I thought it was only right to squeeze in another 3 mile run so I didn't have to feel too guilty about doing nothing all day.
Thursday- Ran 5 miles. Decided not to run in the evening because Friday I was suppose to meet a friend to do a long run.
Fri- Well the long run never happened. I woke up to torrential down pouring and flooding in some parts of the area in the morning. But some how it cleared up that afternoon and the sun came out. I put my hat on (which I never do) and managed to get 5 miles in. I could've done a little longer, but it started to sprinkle and I didn't want to get caught in a mess. Luckily it didn't. It became so humid out that there weren't even puddles I had to jump around. So weird, when there were cars getting stuck in the rain earlier that morning.
Saturday- Back to another work week.

Don't forget to check back here tomorrow for the Scavenger Hunt and make sure to enter the GIVEAWAY if you haven't already.
How were your runs this week?
What's your blogging schedule like? Do you have one or is it just one the mood hits you?
Great weeks! I have no real blogging schedule, it depends on my inspiration and how insane my "real" job is. I try to post at least 3 times a week though. Looking forward to the scavenger hunt!!
ReplyDeleteSometimes I think there is a bit of pressure to keep a blogging schedule! Glad you will be participating in the hunt!
DeleteI'm a little jealous of your sitting on the beach writing this post:)
ReplyDeleteI really wish I could be participating in your run scavenger hunt, it sounds like a fabulous and fun idea, I love it! Hope you have lots of fun with it, and host another one in coming months, and I WILL join up!!!!
Hopefully you will feel well enough to walk and you can join in!
DeleteYour weekends sound better than mine. I have a cold so today was just a take it easy day.
ReplyDeleteAw, hope you are feeling better Lesley!
DeleteCongrats on the good runs, it sounds like your leg is getting better! And Lacey, I love that you got a Sex in the City marathon in there :) I have a sort of blogging schedule. I do my weekly review and Monday and the Friday Five on Friday. I have one or two posts in the middle on various topics, usually one on food.
ReplyDeleteI'm hoping my leg is getting stronger! Sorry we have been missing the Tasty Tuesday link up. Next Tuesday for sure!
DeleteNo real blogging schedule but we should- that will be the goal this summer :) enjoy that view!
ReplyDeleteThanks, this view is always lovely! I like that you blog whenever the mood strikes even if that means there isn't a real schedule!
DeleteAhhh how I wish I were at the beach right now! :0) Preferably somewhere in the tropics!
ReplyDeleteGreat job this week to both of you!
Thanks Lauren. Since you moved, how far are you from the coast?
DeleteLucky you – on the beach! Glad to hear your your knee didn't give you too much trouble on your runs, Meranda! Bark for Life sounds fun, I need to look into whether they have one in my area :)
ReplyDeleteGood for you for getting in another run after your Sex and the City marathon (I love doing marathons like that when I have time). After lazy days on the couch, I tend to stay on the couch for the evening as well. Lazy days are so rare, I REALLY like to make them count ;)
Have a great week, ladies!
Thank you Heather! I'm excited that my leg seems to be getting stronger. I know have to work on my cardio! -M
