10, 11, and 12 milers done!!

Next up is to TAPER and to finish up with PT, stay healthy…find the right shoes and hope for good weather.

Last Week-

• Sunday – Woke to rain so I started the day at the gym. The weather was iffy so we decided not to go up to the lake. Instead I decided to hit a trail that was near the gym (Since I never have time when I go to the gym).

One more because this trail was nearby as well.

I spent the rest of the day doing laundry, gardening and eventually around 4 pm, it did rain (hard on and off for several minutes.)

• Monday – DAY OFF so I wanted to go for a run. I had tentative plans with Jenny but then she said that she wanted to run at 5:15 am.  I replied “Not on  my day off! So I decided to run solo.  My friend Heidi also had the day off and said that she wanted to walk at the Corning bike path.

Perfect – I’ll run and then walk.

I spent the rest of my day off doing errands, pruning bushes and reading…

• Tuesday – A WFH day but PT first thing… Oops they changed my appt from 7:00 am to 6:30 pm… I didn’t find out until I got there.

So I instead planned to meet Jenny for a walk at lunchtime. As soon as I got to our meeting spot, it started to pour!

Not a good day so far…

Finally after work, I did get his PT appt #9 (with  lots of manual manipulating the movement in both ankles.)

In order to gte in my steps, I stopped off at the mall…

• Wednesday – Live teaching today so only Starbucks before work…

and a run afterward at the southern end of the rail trail….

• Thursday – Back to WFH. It was raining when I got up so I went to the gym.

I got my run done at lunchtime before the predicted thunderstorms arrived.

In the evening, I participated in the weekly trail run/walk a Zoom call (Board Meeting for STEM) and then met the trail runners afterward for ice cream (Yes, they got soaked.)

• Friday – A walk at lunch time solo (Jenny is in Sydney Australia).

and another PT appt but after work,

and finally mah jongg in the evening.

• Saturday – Long Run and Brunch. Would I be able to run 12 miles?  Would I have company this week?

I ran the first 6 miles solo and then was joined by Deirdre & Sherry for the last 6.

And met the others for brunch.

In the evening, I joined a friend  to listen to her friend’s band…

• Sunday – Most likely just the gym and boating (weather permitting)…  We plan to invite our granddaughter!!
