So after 4 weeks straight, I am taking a week off from racing!
Some people may think I race too much but I love it. Besides, my training runs are done alone & they are not very good. So this works for me. It motivates me to improve.
My racing schedule will slow down once the weather gets colder and I need to do long runs.
Instead of a race this weekend, I plan to go back to Schroon River – this time for playing Mah Jongg (with maybe a little tennis mixed in). Without a race on Saturday, I can do a long run on Friday or Sunday or both 🙂
I leave you with 2 photos from yesterday. I convinced my hubby to go hiking (followed by buying apples, pumpkins & mums at a nearby orchard).

Happy Running! Do you sign up for a lot of races?
You are amazing! My goal was to do a race a month, I’ve done 13 so far this year (so I’ve done more on some months). I have one scheduled for October and December, waiting on my work schedule to pick a turkey trot for November.
