It’s Friday, so I’m linking up for the new Fit Friday Five. I’m doubling down and linking up with Marcia for “Runfessions,” too! Runfessions are running truths or “where runners bare their souls and soles.” July was another busy month for me and it flew by with a lot to runfess.
I runfess… I’m so grateful for the milder weather here in Chicago compared to Spain. Except for the first day back from vacation, it’s been pretty lovely for running here. It’s also getting light a bit later so I’ve caught some great sunrises.
I runfess… Despite having a strong run at Grandma’s in June, marathon training for Chicago and NYC seems daunting. I’m back up to the teens in miles for my weekly long run, but everyone else is doing 20s. Hopefully, I’ll feel better after running 16 tomorrow.
I runfess… I had a great time working on some new run tour routes. I also connected with someone who’s interested in developing some South Side tours. I hope that will turn out. I was working with someone else on those last summer, but he was too busy to take them on. I’m excited to learn more about the South Side and to have some cool routes for people near the convention center.
I runfess… I’m still on my run streak (today is day 925). I’m definitely going for 1000 now. That will be on November 15th – so after two marathons. What could go wrong? LOL.
I runfess… I found some magical new hair ties. Teleties are “strong grip, no rip hair ties that double as a bracelet.” They’re strong, pretty and stylish and they work great. The best part? No hairs ripped out when I take them out. Winner! Find them online and on Amazon.
Do you have any runfessions? Please leave them in the comments.
I’m linking up with Darlene, Michelle, Renee, Jenn and Zenaida, for Fit Five Friday. Join us!
Have a great weekend!
PS. Don’t miss my great giveaways!
