Week in Review (July 21 - July 27)

Tuesday (14,466 steps) - Walk with Olive and Ben before going to work. Got a surprise text from Paula asking if I wanted to go for a walk since it was "only" in the 80s. Did a strength workout and quick hike on the treadmill. 
Did a delivery on the way home and then took Olive for a walk. Ben picked up pizza for dinner, yum! Good Fight.
Wednesday (18,020 steps) - Took Olive on a long walk to the lake since I had time. 
Went for my "easy" run at lunch. It didn't feel all that easy since it was around 90 degrees. 

Traffic was a complete disaster when I got off work. I was so annoyed when I got home that I just let Olive out because I didn't want to go for a walk in the heat/humidity. Ben made dinner and we worked on my drop bags. Good Fight.
Thursday (14,600 steps) - Ben and I took Olive on a walk to the lake before work. So humid!! At lunch I went to Target to pick up my grocery order and then took Olive for a short walk around the neighborhood. After work Olive and I headed down to Belmar for Colfax's last run club. Glad we all got one more walk in :(


Ben had ordered in Cupbop for dinner, we picked out the rest of my clothes for the race. Good Fight. 
Friday (11,181 steps) - Walk with Ben and Olive before going to work. Busy morning so I had to walk Olive a little later than I normally like when it is so hot out. She bullied me into letting her go into the creek even though I wanted to keep her clean a little while longer. 
Torchy's for dinner since we had missed going on Thursday. Did more packing and organizing, Good Fight.
Saturday (15,713 steps) - Ben and I took Olive for a walk to the lake. I went for my run when we got back - thankfully just "short and easy" - although with the heat hard to keep the heartrate down. 
He had some errands to run, plus I had to finish packing and get the truck loaded up. We stopped in Golden at Katie's house to pick up my team sun shirt, then to Ariel's house to drop off Olive for the week. Finally, we were headed up to the mountains. Thankfully we didn't really hit any traffic, and we were at Outer Range in no time. Then to Lee's to unload stuff. We all went to Ollie's for dinner - I got a delicious burger. Back at Lee's to finalize drop bags and do more organizing. 
Sunday (10,527 steps) - Ben and I decided to go for a hike so I could get my steps in. Nice day! 


We went to Mountain Lyon for breakfast and it was SO GOOD. 
Then it was back to Lee's house to get everything loaded in the truck before going to packet pickup and dropping off bags. We were also going to be staying at a hotel in Frisco so anything I needed for the race had to get packed up. Most everyone I knew was at pick up right when it opened, which meant a lot of standing around chatting with people. 
Finally, we decided to duck out and headed to Outer Range. Then we met up with people for dinner at Peppino's. It was nice to sit around and talk with everyone! Then it was time to check into our hotel. We had found a great deal on the hotel right by Whole Foods. Got everything ready for morning, took a shower and braided my hair. Tried to relax by watching Friends reruns and lights out early, although sleep once again eluded me.

  • 65.4ish miles run
