Week 3 – 1000 Miles Challenge

Week 3 was tough, I was able to get in two runs this past week.  Unfortunately I caught a bad cold and decided that I would take the weekend off and rest.  Today is a start to a new week; I am feeling much better and can’t wait to get some higher mileage in.  One of the runs this week I did on a treadmill just like all my past runs. On Thursday I took myself outside and was able to run on a nearby creek trail.  My favorite part of day to run outside is just as the sun is about to set, I was able to time it out perfect to where I reached home as the sun had set. Thankful that we have a trail so close to our house. The trail actually is about 4 miles from the beach, so goal is to get to a point where I can run all the way to the beach and back just on a normal day. This coming week I should be able to put in the highest mileage yet weekly.  Let’s see where we get. 973.33 miles to go, still have a lot of time this year! Total mileage last week: 11.03 miles.
