Yep! That is pretty much how my week went! As you will see in this coming week's blogs our family took a big Clark W. Griswold style family vacation. Ok, maybe we didn't drive all the way to Wallyworld but we did have a pretty awesome week! The problem was that it felt like I was taking time away from our family to go running. I had some pretty hefty miles on the schedule and I just couldn't find time to run. If I went in the am I missed out on time with the kids. If I went during the day I would have died (it was hot & HUMID!). And if I went in the eve after the kids went to bed I was missing time with Mr. J. I felt like I couldn't win. I decided that a week off of running wouldn't hurt me and it would be good for our family. It was also good for me mentally. I was able to unplug and just relax! When I'm training my mind is constantly thinking about running and pace and times and what is next. I think not running this week was good all the way around. And I'm even more excited to get back to running and start my half marathon training!
It was a great week and I will be sure to flood you with pictures and stories and places to go this week!
Question of the day!
Have you ever had to take a break from running? How did you feel?
Love, Lacey
