Welcome to week 2 of my first cycle of half marathon training (4 cycles total). If this is your first time reading one of my training post, this time around I’m prepping to PR on my half in Dallas, TX in December 2015 and sharing my experiences along the way. You can read the previous week below:
Week 2 September 14-20, 2015
This has truly been an amazing summer. But thankful it is over!!!. I guess you’re wondering, if it was so amazing, why am I so thankful for it to be over. Well, I’m really looking forward to getting back on track with my weekly blogging and meal prepping (which requires extra attention since I decided to become a vegetarian). All in all, I’m just ready to slow down, catch a breath and relax on the weekend instead of going, going, gone. Plus, Fall is my favorite season!!!
This was the first time in many summers that I have been busy as a bee. Not complaining!!! I’m glad I was able to pick up and just go and I enjoyed every moment of it.
If you read my I’m Back….Deuces Summer blog you would understand how excited I am to get back to what I love; training, running and blogging.
I have really been looking forward to this half marathon training cycle. If you remember last year my goal was to PR for my half in April of 2015. I worked with a coach to help me reach my goal but as you know, things never go as planned. The last week of training, I injured my hamstring. Needless to say I didn’t PR 😦 .
Moving forward, I have decided to work on speed and get back on track with my goal to PR at the Dallas Marathon (Half) in December. I’m going to take the training plan that was created for me for my last half and tweak it here and there.
If this is your first time reading one of my detox post, this is my experience of week 3 of a 20 day raw detox. You can find weeks 1 and 2 below.
Last week of my detox and I must say, this go around, I’m really thinking about changing the way I see food. I always hear, “if you can do something for 21 days, it becomes a habit”. Well going without chicken, turkey and fish for twenty plus days (and still counting) straight, let’s me know that I don’t need it in my life or diet.
