Weekly Run Down for 6.2.24-6.9.24: Just Getting it Done


Work (and not from home), rain, girls trip, etc.

Some weeks, I’m just happy to get in a run…

Last Week –

  • Sunday –I thought about a run since I had walked the 5k with my friends the day before…

But I decided to keep my plan of Sunday morning at the gym.

The weather was great again and I booked a site on another island on Lake George in advance so we could barbecue. The best part of the day  (besides the food and the ice cream later) was that I was able to read a whole book (The Great Alone by Kristin Hannah)…

  • Monday – I had enough time to run before work…

took a different route as my neighborhood gets boring…

  • Tuesday – Again I started the day with a run …

a friendly cat on the rail trail

and then after work, I met friends to go for a long walk on the rail trail.

  • Wednesday – DAY OFF!! 

I forgot that it was Global Running Day and instead of a run, I went to the gym…

A few tennis friends and I planned a day trip today to the NY Botanical Gardens to see:

transforms the Garden through the sights, settings, and scents of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland

It was so beautiful there.

  • Thursday – I had to teach live today so I rushed out in order to try to get some miles done before our trail night but had to sit in my car for an hour during a torrential rainstorm.

Fortunately, it stopped in time to get in our trail walk.

  • Friday – Another live teaching day so nothing but mah jongg in the evening my hair appointment.
  • Saturday – Long Run Saturday and Brunch.

There was brunch and a run with my friends but the runs don’t get long for a few weeks.

and it rained for the last 3 miles… (if you can’t tell, that’s a wild turkey and her babies)

  • Sunday – Hopefully my regularly scheduled program: GYM, day on the lake (but maybe not since the forecast calls for rain…)

  1. GAH! Your Sunday at the lake (last week) sounds incredible- I would LOVE to relax at the lake like that and read an entire book!

    Weirdly, I always forget when Global Running Day is coming up. This year it just worked out that I ran on the right day.

    I hope you make it to the lake today (?) You guys seem to get a LOT of rain.
