11/7

Okay, let's give this another try.

I ran another half-marathon a month or so ago (it was not fun--85 at the start line after weeks of sub-40s temperatures and I got so so so dizzy that I had to walk around mile 12 for a few minutes and then had to lie down for about twenty minutes at the finish, but all the times for that day were terrible and the winning times were 9 minutes slower than the previous year).

Lots of stroller running this week--6 Monday, 5.34 Tuesday, took yesterday off and just walked 3 miles bc my IT bands are bugging me, 7 today. Trying to really be careful about sleeping enough and eating well because I've decided to go for a PR in the half next spring and a marathon in the fall and the best way to start my training base is doing all the little things right. So I'm going to focus on nutrition, flexibility, and sleep for a couple months and then ramp up training in January.
