Lauren’s Training Log: May 2nd – May 15th, 2022
Monday May 2nd, 2022 80 Ounces of water. Check! Run at least one mile. Check! I felt strong for the first mile, it was hot and the loop I did was super boring. Need to change up the loop and start running in the morning. Overall I’m feeling stronger! Tuesday May 3rd, 2022 80 Ounces of water. Check! Run at least one mile. Check! I ran early but it was already hot and humid. Felt like you were running and making no progress. More walking on this run, but glad I got out there and went the 2 miles instead of cutting it short!

Lauren’s Training Log: April 25th – May 1st, 2022
Best Self Challenge Week 4 April 25th, 2022 80 Ounces of water. Check! Run at least one mile. Check! Run felt really strong again. The shorter runs are starting to feel very easy now, which is welcomed. Feeling your body get back into shape for the first time in a very long time is a great feeling. Keeping this week easy to let my body recover a little. My Garmin watch is showing that my body isn’t fully recovering. I don’t fully trust the data, but I do know that stress is high and sleep is low, taking it easy is probably smart this week! April 26th, 2022 80 Ounces…

Best Self Challenge Week 3 April 18th, 2022 80 Ounces of water. Check! Run at least one mile. Check! Holy muggy. Run was rough, but got it done! April 19th, 2022 80 Ounces of water. Check! Run at least one mile. Check! I felt strong! If I was paying attention to my watch I would have run the extra 0.05 miles and gotten a new 5k training cycle PR. It feels good to be lowering the pace and things still feeling comfortable. I did end the day with a pretty bad headache, which is either because I’m limiting sugar intake or because I’m not eating enough food. I’m going to…

Finally back at it. It’s been a while. I have been on and off exercising, but haven’t been that dedicated or consistent. Letting life get the best of me. On to bigger and better things.

Trying to make small daily changes to see if the slow approach will work better. Saturday, February 19th: Benchmark Run. 2 Min Warm-Up/5 Min Run/2 Min Cool-Down *felt pretty strong and easy. I kept it simple and just did the benchmark run. I am going to do my…
