I ran 3 miles with my yellow lab Oakley and my running partner and her german short hair Goalie. We went this morning at 5:00 a.m.  It rained on us and was very windy but we pushed through and got it done!

Then I ran another 3 miles solo this evening and for some reason I had much more energy and my run felt great.

This has been a tough week to fit in my runs. Ran the first 1.5 miles with my little man.  Then finished the last 3.5 miles by myself.  Trying to make it to 30 miles this week or at least close to it!

4 miles in the a.m.

8 miles in the p.m.

It wasn't easy, but I did it. Haven't ran 12 miles in a day since last spring while training for my half-marathon.  Hopefully my body holds up!

Good job repeating your 30 miles week. Running twice on Saturday to get in your miles was awesome. Keep it up you gonna Rock the parkway on April

Ran 6 miles and it felt great. I know 6 miles isn't very far for some people but for me 6 miles has been a challenge until I started running more miles per week.  It was great to run and not feel awful the whole time. Hoping the stars align and I make it to 30 miles again. :) 

My knee is hurting some so I am hoping that goes away quickly!

Ran 3 miles this morning with my running partner and our dogs again. It was cold and windy but we did it! Thank goodness for running partners.

This afternoon I ran another three miles with my husband and daughter at a new trail we discovered. It was nice to have them with me to make my miles more fun!  The weather is getting interesting tonight so tomorrow might be a challenge to get my miles in. We will see.

Brrr, another cold run!  This weather is interesting lately.  Right knee is giving me some trouble so I am lowering my miles a little to see if that helps.  Shooting for 24 miles this week instead of 30.

Ran 4 miles at the park with one of my best running partners, Oakley (my furry baby).  Kids played while Oakley and I ran. Didn't make it to my goal of 24 miles for the week but I was close. Hopefully next week goes better.

5 miles early morning with Oakley.  He makes getting up early to run, easier. He is full of excitement and ready to go. Glad to get this done and be ready for the day!

Nice 5 mile run with my dog Oakley. The weather was great except for a little wind. It was nice to not freeze while running for once.  Really hoping to keep my knee healthy and run 21-24 miles this week!
