Monday
Did: 4.05mi @ 9:25/mi avg, 2mi walk, LIIFTMore

Tuesday

Did: 3.28mi on treadmill @ 9:21/mi avg, 1mi walk, chorus
Did NOT feel like running today, but proud I made SOMETHING happen

Wednesday

Did: 2.0mi @ 9:02/mi avg + 8.05mi @ 9:22/mi avg = 10.05mi @ 9:18/mi avg
Wanted a double digit run today, and made it happen in pieces. :D

Thursday

Did: LIIFTMore Legs, 1mi treadmill walk, some hiking with kiddo

Felt a weird Achilles soreness on the treadmill walk? 

Friday

Did: 4.04mi with stroller @ 9:05/mi avg

Achilles didn't bother me enough to not run with my baby at the river. I was surprised how fast I was running with a stroller in 10mph winds too. 

Saturday

Did: 7.52mi @ 9:53/mi avg

I cut this 10mi run off a bit early since my ankle felt a bit tight. Figured it was better to have a slightly sore Achilles than an inflamed and painful one. 

Sunday

Did: 1.06mi @ 9:29/mi avg + LIIFTMore arms and core

Achilles is still a little sore, but only when I'm trying to pay attention to it. Got a single easy mile in to enjoy weather, but today was mostly about lifting. I'm pretty proud to have advanced from 2lb on some exercises up to 10lb within the past few months :D

Total Weekly Mileage: 30

Week-Ending Thoughts:
Is this what my life as a SAHM could look like? 'cause it's pretty amazing...besides the whole "money is only going OUT of our bank account" thing. lol
