MOnday check in

I keep hearing how summer is almost over, but didn’t we just start the month of August? We’re still right smack in the prime time of summer, so don’t you dare get the Sunday Scaries for the rest of the month.

We’ve got a big week ahead. This is test week for people on the Fast Mile Summer Program. Be sure to chat with me before you take off on your test. I learned a lot from my effort on Friday, and am kind of thinking of giving it another go with a better strategy other than to just run hard. I thought I was being more calculated than I was. More on that tomorrow.

50k in Whites is this weekend. This year’s course is mostly new trails or ones I’ve only been on once before. Looking forward to it and hoping that my legs will tolerate a long day out in the mountains.

Yesterday was my wedding anniversary, today is the anniversary of our first date. It was after the Ironman Fitness Pull Up Contest in 2012. I got 18 reps.
