YAY it's the Fourth of July!
I started my day after sleeping in a tiny bit and then hurrying out for a run before it got too hot! I did the same 5-mile course that I ran the other day but this time instead of doing an easy run, I ran at tempo pace. I was inspired by Brooks today...
I warmed up for the first 0.5 miles and then hit my tempo pace. It was HARD! I felt like I had more in the tank but couldn't push it anymore...and at the end (when I was dripping in sweat) I realized that it's probably due to the outrageous heat and humidity today. I used the final mile as a cool-down which I think really helped. I felt great after I cooled down and drank some chocolate milk.
Beautiful lily in our backyard!
I spent the day having some down time and then going to TARGET (fave place) with my mom. I got some special surprises for my sister's birthday and a couple things for when I go back to school (now I can say I go back "next month"...whaaat!?). I also got some M&Ms and at the red, white & blue ones.
Also got these new multi-vites...hopefully they help me row harder and run faster!
Annnndddd: Alex is home!!!!! Ultimate Fourth of July surprise!
(Except it wasn't really a surprise this time!)
