And so June running begins....

Well Summer is starting to sneak in on us. Last Saturday we set out for our 'long run' admist 90% humidity, or so it felt! I managed to get in my 6+ miles before the downpour. It was a bit of a struggle to get through those 6 miles, probably because the past 3 nights were late one having too much fun with friends. Ahhh trying to enjoy those days while they still last and before the mileage starts creeping up!

Tonight was a much better night, although just like all tuesday workouts, it brought a tough work out asking my body to push a little farther. Three 1.5 mile repeats. Not so back on it's own, but add in squats and lunges between each of those 1.5 miles, AND having to pick up the pace on each one....it made for quite the night of running. But we're all finished and feeling pretty darn good.

Tomorrow will be an early morning. To celebrate the NY road runners organization's 50th anniversary, I will be running in a 5 mile race @ 5:30am. Yes that is correct, 5:30am!! At least I get a good start to my wednesday!

And so June begins...
