<![CDATA[235 and 93]]>I am finally back to my regular mileage, but this week’s runs have been far from normal.  Our ice storm lasted a full week, so indoor running gave me lots of time to focus on my mental game!

Thursday:

11 treadmill miles. I was the first and only person in the gym (the roads were really bad).  This was also my first two-a-day since my Achilles injury!

We weren’t able to run outside together, but a few of us were able to meet up for a BBC breakfast.  My heart was so happy to see my friends!

After breakfast, Corrie and I went to Orange Theory Fitness.  I logged some more treadmill miles, rowed, lifted, and did TRX.

My favorite part about OTF is that they monitor your heart rate and send you your results after class.  (I promise I worked hard.  It’s just really tough for runners to get our heart rate up!)

Jason’s favorite cuisine is Indian, so were really excited to try Chauhan Ale & Masala House.  We LOVED it!

The roads were still thick ice, so more treadmill miles.  Choose Joy shoes seemed like the appropriate reminder.

It may have been cold and icy, but I was craving a green smoothie from Daily Juice.  “When You’re Healthy You’re Happy!!”

I was excited to find out that I’m a new FitFluential Ambassador!

Big THANK YOU to Fleet Feet and Nike for my new race kit!!!  I’m definitely not an exceptional runner and I often feel more like the team cheerleader (or mascot…ha!).  I just really love to run.  Either way, I feel blessed to be on a team with some incredible runners.

My long run was followed by a lazy Sunday afternoon…perfection.

I don’t always share my mileage totals, but this was the first week I felt back to my normal running numbers.  I’m also proud of myself for running a lot of these on the treadmill!

Weekly Mileage Total: 93

Have you ever run on a tiny indoor track?  How did it go? I didn’t hate it as much as I thought I would.  Maybe it was because I had friends to talk to.

Did you celebrate Margarita Day?!!

Indian Food…yay or nay?

Peak and Pit?  Peak: Reconnecting with my girlfriends to run this weekend after being trapped indoors from the ice storm.  Pit: Not being able to get our cars up the driveway and into the garage all week.  (They’re finally warm and cozy in our garage!!)
