The Roundup + A Last Chance Pretty Muddy Giveaway!

Yesterday's event was awesome in every way - it definitely motivated me to keep going and never quit on my training journey & that there are NO excuses!

So, this morning I enjoyed a lovely recovery run with Kris - it's her birthday today - and we shook out in 4 miles what made us stiff from the 13 we did yesterday ;)

Today I also think about my pal Gina, who is also celebrating a birthday AND running the Marine Corp Marathon along with my cousin J! So much awesome racing going on today - keep away Sandy!

This week in workouts was one of PRs and faster paces thanks to cooler weather and amped-up training!

Monday was a PR for 5 miles. Thursday was a PR for 6 miles. Saturday was a PR for 13 miles.

Am I ready for race season?? Heck YES!! ;)

Along with the Women's Half (remember to use code KATSNF for $10 off registration!) being 3 weeks away, Pretty Muddy is officially 2 weeks away and I have to admit I'm going to be so super careful and am terrified of my first mud race pretty excited for this race! I plan to stay committed to this set of rules:

• Don't be a competitor: I have a tendency to always race when there's a 'race' so that I can always do my very best - duh. That will not be happening at Pretty Muddy. Not!
• Watch where my feet go: I'm not sure if there is a medical term for the condition I like to call "Loose Ankle" that I suffer from am a hypochondriac about, but I would like to remember to keep an eye on my landing so that I don't slip or twist anything, I can't afford that a week out
• from the Women's Half!
• Frolick: I want to frolick...it will make for awesome photography
• Don't be a priss: There's going to be mud, I have to not care that I'll get super dirty. It will make me happy to offer free hugs after the fact, so that's always an added bonus.



• Have Fun! That's the key to this event, HAVE FUN! It's all in good, dirty, fun ;)

This Weekly Workouts Roundup has been a great one! My pace has stepped it up and I am ready for this cold (or semi-cold) race season, bring it!
