I ran  3 miles after work on Thursday and it was pathetic.  I had to stop and walk almost every tenth of a mile. I’m not exaggerating. Yes, it was hot and humid & I was tired but that’s no excuse.

I took Friday off and went up to the lake.

Saturday morning, I went for a 4 mile run.  It was VERY hot and humid (I didn’t get up as early as I should have).  I went south on 9N in Bolton Landing which has rolling hills and cut through the cemetery and then ran back to the marina.

It was not a particularly fast run.  But I ran at a consistent pace and had negative splits.  There were very few walk breaks and I felt redeemed.

Not sure the reason for this good run …it was in the morning…after a day off…pretty scenery?? 

So although I want to run almost everyday.  My ankle says “You need to rest it.”

Today I rested it again.

Otherwise the weekend was like every weekend on the lake…relaxing and fun.

Happy Running! How was your weekend?
