The one with all the rain

Another off-kilter week due to Scott traveling for work plus some awful weather in the forecast (RAIN all week!).

Monday
Did: 3.04 mi @ 8:38/mi + 10 min ruck workout + 60 min Vinyasa @ SoulYoga
Ran as the morning rain tapered off which meant nice and steamy conditions. Got home and decided to do a little ruck conditioning with the 20# backpack: 5 rounds of 10 squats, 10 pushups, 10 sit-ups. Took about 2 mins per round, and by the end of the sit-ups, I felt like a turtle trying to get right side up from my back. 
In the late afternoon, went to SoulYoga for a Vinyasa class w/ Scott - a rare Monday treat prompted by the rain which washed out our weekly bike ride plans.

Tuesday
Did: 6.21 mi @ 8:42/mi
Had a break (sort of) in the rain at lunch and ran 2x loops on the 5k course at work. Boy was it humid though, yuck! Kind of would have preferred the rain... 

Wednesday
Did: 2.21 mi @ 9:42/mi avg
Ran in the rain with Megan after camp drop-off in the morning, followed by a coffee date at Coffee Underground. What a great morning!

Thursday
Did: 5.09 mi @ 8:03/mi avg
Speedy loop (in the rain, again) around USC Upstate campus. Felt much better than the humidity of Tuesday. Surprised at the speed, but I'll take it.

Friday
Did: 37 min strength + 1.5 mi treadmill run
Work gym for some strength followed by a quick 1.5 mi treadmill progression run from 9:00/mi-6:30/mi. 

Saturday
Did: 10.06 mi @ 8:53/mi avg
Double-digit run! First one in quite a while, but felt great to get out early and get the run done at sunrise. Been a while since I've had a "normal" weekend run and my mental state is soooo much better for it. 


Sunday
Did: ruck workout + 3 mi run + 1.7 mi hike + 60 min Vinyasa at SoulYoga
Wheeeee all the things today! 
Started out the morning with a ruck workout with the 20# pack: 
Ruck 1 Mile
Then perform 2 rounds of:
10 Push-ups with Ruck on
20 Squats with Ruck on
30 Ruck curls
20 Ruck push-press
10 Ruck ground-to-overhead
after the 2 rounds:
Ruck 1 mile


A bit later in the morning I did a 3 mi run in the neighborhood before it got too hot (relative term, although for late June it's still pretty tolerable). 

I took the kiddo and pup over to Furman to hike the trails around the lake which was nice, but it was definitely warming up by that point.



In the late afternoon I went to SoulYoga for a vinyasa class - felt awesome!! I definitely feel better when I get yoga in during the week... and this week I got it twice!
