What Was Planned vs. What Happened
Monday 11/30/15: 2 Miles | 2 Miles
#RWRunStreak Day 5. I dragged my butt out of bed at 6 am for 2 quick miles before work. It was my first ever pre-dawn run, and it was weird, but good.
Tuesday 12/01/15: 2 Miles | 1 Mile
#RWRunStreak Day 6. I was too lazy to get up early, so I dashed out for a quick mile between work and a dinner party.
Wednesday 12/02/15: 1 Mile; 1 Hour Spin; Tap Class | 1 Mile; 1 Hour Spin; Tap Class
#RWRunStreak Day 7. This day was FRANTIC. I got up at 5:30 am for spin, worked until 4:30, dashed out for a quick mile, went to tap class for 5:30, then got changed and Ben picked me up for a work dinner at 7. I almost didn’t run cause it was rainy and cold and I was feeling put-upon, but I wasn’t ready to give up the streak yet.
Thursday 12/03/15: 2 Miles | 1.69 Miles
#RWRunStreak Day 8. Another busy day, and another cold and rainy run. Honestly at this point I’d rather it just start snowing, because at least then I wouldn’t get wet.
Friday 12/04/15: 2 Miles | 1.67 Miles
#RWRunStreak Day 9. FRIDAAAYYY! I ran the same route as Thursday night, but took it slow and easy. Then I changed into PJs and watched Netflix for the rest of the night 🙂
Saturday 12/05/15: Run Club 4 Miles | 5 Miles
#RWRunStreak Day 10. No run club for me, because Ben had Nordic practice. Instead I went out for nice solo 5 miler. The sun was finally out, and it felt great to run in daylight for the first time all week.
Sunday 12/06/15: Ri-Ra Santa Run 5k | Ri-Ra Santa Run 5k
#RWRunStreak Day 11. There will be a full recap later this week, but for now, I’ll say that this was neither my best 5k nor my worst. It was fun, and it was a great way to stay busy and keep my mind off the Mary Poppins auditions in the afternoon.
This week is all about a) keeping up with the Run Streak, and b) staying busy to keep myself from freaking out about Mary Poppins. I won’t know if I have a callback until Thursday morning, and then I won’t know if I’m cast until Saturday afternoon. Waiting is the WORST.
- Monday: Short run
- Tuesday: Short run
- Wednesday: One hour spin; short run; last tap class
- Thursday: Short run
- Friday: Short run
- Saturday: 5-6 miles
- Sunday: Short run
How do you keep yourself busy when you’re waiting for news?
Looks like you had a great week of getting in all your workouts and continuing your running streak! I’ve yet to do one – maybe next year 😉
It was a crazy week, but I’m glad I’m keeping up with the streak. It’s helping me with discipline 🙂
Don’t freak out, you are a champ and I’m sure that you KNOCKED THEM OUUUUUUT.
I usually workout or netflix or read, but you know that 1 of those isn’t happening!
Netflix FTW!
Look at you killing your running streak!! Yes!! I wish I would have decided to do that. Your Friday sounds amazing. Anytime I can put on my pajamas and watch Netflix is a good night!
Netflix and PJs is such a good time. I feel really boring and old, but I don’t even care.
Great job keeping up with the run streak! Running in the rain is definitely not as fun as running in the snow, so I hope you get some snow soon!
Thanks, me too! Although it’s not looking great right now 😦
Nice work with the streak! Hopefully your time to wait goes by quickly! I usually try to read or watch something, running usually makes me think more about what I am trying to forget. 🙂
Me too! Hooray for mindless TV!
You don’t even want to know what I’m thinking this whole”Nordic” practice may be…:)
Lol I have no idea and I don’t want an idea!
