I am so over all this heat and sunshine. I've done well keeping with the running this summer despite it but we haven't been walking much bc Cyric hates the heat even more than I do and it's not like there's a good way to know if he is really too hot or just doesn't wanna. But my mental health needs longer walks and nicer weather and he has been pretty blah and lethargic.
I didn't track goals and habits for this month and have started feeling lost so I'm ready to get back at it next month. I think I did need the little break from it but ready to move on. I've been wasting too much time online and still not even posting! I can't seem to get my head around actually replying to posts. Last night's 3 mile run was rough. It was still 79 degrees at 8:30 and humidity was 70% so real feel was 82 and there wasn't much breeze. I apparently overstretched my hamstrings in triangle pose earlier in the day (even though I did use a block) so btwn that and the longer run I'm kind of hurting today, plus I don't think I did rehab stuff at all last week. Gotta get back on that today.

The shirt is cotton and khaki. It goes with a pair of leggings I have (cause I buy what I find at a decent price) that I wear mostly hiking but I wouldn't want a cotton shirt for that.

I may end up doing my 5k on Monday instead of this wknd. Just depends how things go.
Buff, I've heard that from other people too, that this summer is hard even on people who like summer! I honestly sit around daydreaming about fall weather. We did manage to walk 2 miles this morning and even started out at a better clip but then slowed down. I had to change out of wet clothes when we got back. Ugh.

I did my 5k this am since the low was the coolest for the weekend. I got a 29:18 or 9:25 pace which was faster than last year's 31:10 or 9:59 pace. I started out fast and slowed in the last mile, but I got 'er done.
I did the same Sarah Beth class I've done the last three weeks after my street run. It's a nice mix of strength, balance, and stretch. Sandy O

Did a leg workout today instead of Monday before a race. I'll do FB workouts for the next 2 days and (look to repeat this going forward for the series. This was a quad dominant workout but I figure my posterior chain always needs activation and sub'ed in Bulgarians, DL, and curtsy lunges. I also tend to stay on one side longer to increase the burn. Have to do more of the girl with the piiates mat. Today's pilates was a good one and I couldn't help thinking 'why isn't this easier?!'
