march

20.22 miles with my Fleet Feet training group to end the month of February!!

I packed Gu for the run and prepped a bottle of Grape Nuun for post run.

I made breakfast for the both of us this morning. I couldn’t resist stopping at Donut Country last night for some fresh delicious donuts!

I got the bigger donut because I was running 20 miles 🙂

Yeah, I didn’t look this happy at mile 16. I wanted to walk, BAD! During my first marathon training, I did walk. I would always feel mentally defeated because I knew I had it in me physically.

Today was tough. I’m grateful for our fearless pace leader, Jen! I ran the whole 20.22 miles AND finished with a PR for time.

I had texts waiting on me when I got back to my car. I told Austin I needed food, stretching, and a nap! I was so tired I wanted to laugh and cry all at the same time. He responds with the plane smels like doodoo. I literally laughed out loud when I read that.

Well on that note, I doubled my miles ran in February! I’m starting to feel stronger and my shin splints are pretty much gone now.
