I just finished week 2 of my 15k training plan. You may notice I was silent regarding my first week, but don't worry, you didn't miss anything. These first two weeks are basically just easy runs following my 10k before building up back into the 15k plan.
Don't tell Coach, but every run was too fast!
Monday, 7/29:
This was supposed to be an easy 2.5 mile run at 16:15. I ran 2.69 miles at 15:44. I ran this mostly with a friend. She had already ran 2.5 miles before me, so she ended a little earlier than I finished. We talked a lot about some of our upcoming Disney trips, so this run felt really good and the talking was a good distraction.
Tuesday, 7/30:
Again, an easy 2.5 miles at 16:15. This one was even "faster" at 15:39. I use the word faster loosely because let's be real, it's still slow. I ran 2.55 miles. This run felt "cool" at 76 degrees.
After my run, I rushed home to shower. I saw Once Upon a Time in Hollywood that night. I still don't know how I feel about it. I liked it, I think, but it was just SO long and not a whole lot happens. So much didn't need to be in the film. I love Leo though and he was phenomenal.
Wednesday, 7/31:
Day off! I did run to the bridal store after work to get fitted for my bridesmaid dress and boy oh boy was it hot in the fitting area. I'm dumb and unzipped the dress before I took a picture, but this is it basically.
Thursday, 8/1
I ran this one with my friend again. Again, 2.5 miles easy at 16:15, but we ran 2.6 miles at 15:28. The day before, she booked our room for Princess. We are staying with 5-6 people (one hasn't decided if he is coming) in a 2 bedroom villa at OKW from February 20-25th, so we talked a lot about the logistics of that. She just KNOWS that someone is going to complain about sleeping arrangements. But, honestly, it's ridiculous because NONE OF US are paying to sleep there because we are using family DVC points that someone else pays for. It's crazy, I'm just grateful to be included. Put me on the floor for all I care!
ALSO - BIG NEWS STARTING AUGUST 1ST. MY FAVORITE LOCAL ICE CREAM PLACE STARTED SERVING DOLE WHIP ON AUGUST 1ST. I haven't gone yet, but I am SO EXCITED for this.
Friday, 8/2
Day off, thankfully. Work was INSANE. I'm so busy/behind. On top of my normal work, I need to finish up some end of month billing reports, but I haven't been able to get to it. I was supposed to work a bit after dinner (I set my own "OT" hours, so "supposed to" isn't really a thing. Plus I don't get paid for it. Boo) but I was just so exhausted I went to bed early and did a whole lot of nothing.
Saturday 8/3
Today was 3 miles at 16:15, but it felt really hard. I did try to slow down. The sun was just killing me and I still think I'm exhausted/stressed from work. I did 3.12 miles at 15:51. I stopped at Starbucks on the way home and now I'm about to start working AGAIN. Boo. I need to get a couple hours in though to try and catch up. I also ordered some fun waterbottles for the bachelorette I am hosting. They are rose gold stainless steel with all of our names on them in white. They're super cute
FINALLY and MOST IMPORTANTLY!!!! I got in to the SWGE preview!! We are going August 17th from 1-5pm and it includes the Oga's. Can't wait. It's a SUPER short trip. We are flying out Friday after work and coming right back early Sunday morning. We are just staying at one of the All Star's because it's a super short trip. I don't even remember which one. Our magic bands are arriving today though!
