I turned 30 this week! And that’s about all I accomplished. It was a busy week at work, plus there was RAIN! And coldness! And family obligations! I could make a million excuses, but whatever. Back at it next week.
Here’s the summary…
Only 10 weeks to go until the Mississippi Blues Marathon. This past week was a doozy with Orangetheory Hell Week Monday through Friday (recap here!). Lots and lots of intervals, which were part of my 5K training plan, plus some good strength training. I happily took my rest day on Saturday instead of Sunday.
Unfortunately, on Saturday evening I dropped my laptop squarely on my big toe. Yikes. Based on the amount of pain, I was questioning whether it was broken, but now I’ve decided it is just badly bruised. (I’ll spare you the picture.) As runners, we are often so scared about injuring our knees or dealing with IT band pain and shin splints. But sometimes just having butterfingers is what will thwart you!
