On the very last day of the year we finished the very last day of the 5-10K program. Sweet 30 minute run in the brisk cold of early Winter. We were actually supposed to run yesterday but had company over so we postponed to today. Today’s run ended with coffee...

Today’s run was pretty great. Ran the first mile in 11 minutes then slowed the pace for the remaining 19 minutes of the run. We’ve been making Whole Foods our post-run pit stop lately. Fresh pineapple and probiotic smoothie to recover. Yum. We are halfway...

It was supposed to be a 30 minute run today but the course I plotted out was a 5k. Took us 37 minutes to run it. Slower than my official 5k time but that’s ok since this route had one long hill that really ate into the time. Keri’s 5k time has improved by...
