What Routine?

Trying to fit in my runs between the snowstorms, work and social engagements so I am able to complete the races I’ve signed up for…

• Mar 7 – Electric City 10k
• Mar 15 – NYC Half Marathon
• Mar 21 – Asheville Half Marathon
• Apr 11 – H2H Half Marathon

Last Week –

• Sunday – I started the day at the gym…

Since a big snowstorm was predicted for tonight and tomorrow, I decided to squeeze in a run today…

• Monday – WFH all week…

Woke up to snow and it was still falling most of the day (and very windy). We didn’t get as much snow as NYC but everything was closed – No gym today.

After work, I visited my granddaughter… and then had a drink with a friend.

• Tuesday – I went to the gym before work and then at lunch I joined Jenny for her last run… she was leaving the next day for Tokyo.

After work, my monthly tennis ladies meet up was scheduled.  This time, we went to someone’s house, ordered in dinner and did a craft activity.

• Wednesday – More snow.. but a busy work day so only a walk in the mall in the evening.

Remember my lower back pain?  I had made a PT appt before vacation. Guess what? It stopped hurting (while I was on vacation) but I decided to keep the appt. (tight  right SI joint and she gave me exercises to do and return  in a week..)

• Thursday – A quick trip to the gym before work, a run during lunch in my ‘hood…

and then after work, I had my monthly STEM board meeting… for the first time it was face to face instead of ZOOM.

• Friday- A long work day with only mah jongg in the evening…
• Saturday – Long Run and Brunch. 12 miles on my plan. Not a problem except that I was supposed to go to a retired teacher’s brunch at 10:30 am.  Could I squeeze it in???

Nope, I decided that it would be too stressful so I was going to postpone it until Sunday.

That I looked at the guest list and most of my teacher friends were unable to go, as well.

I contacted my local running friends and we agreed on a meet up followed by brunch. Long run done!!

I also started tracking my friend who is running the Tokyo marathon but she won’t finish until around 1:30 am…

• Sunday – gym visit and then lunch with a friend…
