Monday
1.3 mi ruck 20#
Got a new (to me) bullet ruck 15L in Everglades Camo so had to take it for a spin on the morning pup walk.
SCRA trails were busy for the NICA time trial during practice, so Ivy and I stuck with walking back and forth to spectate. She got adorably excited every time D would ride by.
6.6 mi @ 8:56/mi
Another week of early neighborhood loops. Much cooler this time!
1 mi morning walk
Felt very slow and tired this evening. I think the little tastes of fall weather makes the heat more difficult to handle! Ivy and I were both sluggish.
45 min work gym
Yay strength!
Friday
4 mi @ 10min/mi
Easy solo miles on the Gold Line - chose to run without the pup since she'd been rather tired and I worried she'd protest.
1.5 mi walks
Lunch walk plus a little exploration with kiddo in the evening at Poinsett Bridge
Saturday
16 mi w/ 2,300 ft vert
Originally planned a 14 mile loop in Dupont with some moderate elevation but felt good and wanted a couple more miles so rounded out 16 miles. Started at Fawn Lake, Reasonover Creek Trail, Airstrip views, ventured up to Bridal Veil Falls, looped Burnt Mountain, crossed Corn Mill Shoals, then looped Fawn Lake at the end. Started sprinkling just at the end but man, this felt great! A little bit of fall color coming in 😍
Sunday
5 mi @ 10:16/mi
Recovery swamp rabbit miles... flat and easy pace.
Weekly Summary
✅Tuesday 5 mi Moderate Hill - exceeded, 10k
✅Wednesday ~5 mi (50 min) - done at 50 mins
✅Friday 3 mi Easy - extra credit at 4 mi
✅Saturday 12 mi Trail (2,000 ft gain) - hit the vert, exceeded miles
Total weekly miles = 35 miles
Definitely went above and beyond, but feeling good and strong - was afraid of being short some miles but now feeling good!
