.....And Now, May!
May was another month of building, after my almost-maybe-probably-stress fracture/reaction thingy. We also moved at the end of the month, which was exhausting.
Week of April 30
Monday - 25 minutes of bike trainer, avg. HR 126

Week of May 14
Monday - 2 miles of run/walk with the dog
Tuesday - 2 miles at 10:24/mile
Wednesday - 3 miles at 10:21/mile, 20 minutes of barefoot hip.glute exercises and drills

Friday - 60 minutes of bike trainer, avg. HR 136
Saturday - 3 miles at 9:53/mile
Sunday - Rest
Week of May 21
Monday - 4 miles at 9:55/mile on the Mountain Goat Trail with my husband (rare sitter)
Tuesday - 50 minutes of vinyasa yoga, then 2 miles at 9:16/mile in the rain
Wednesday - 4.2 miles at 10:36/mile, again in the pouring rain...not sure about the random distance, but I just didn't bother looking at my watch and ran a big loop at a comfortable pace
Thursday - Rest
Friday - 5 miles at 10:06/mile, on farm roads
Saturday - 3 miles at 9:55/mile
Sunday - 5 miles at 10:10/mile, and the weather is official incredibly, horribly, oppressively hot now
Week of May 28
Monday - Rest
Tuesday - 5 miles at 10:04/mile, again in the torrential rain, came home to a leaky roof and a flooded bathroom
Wednesday - 4 miles at 9:43/mile, in my last run as a resident of Tennessee
Thursday - MOVING DAY!!!
Friday - Moving
Saturday - Yep, still moving!
Sunday - 5 miles at 10:40/mile and HOLY HELL SOUTH ALABAMA IS HOTTTTTT
I'm looking forward to a summer getting well and truly acclimated to heat, picking up some more mileage and speed, and staying faithful to cross training. I've got some work travel in June and July that should give me a nice break from the heat. We are also building a house, and expecting to move again in July. It's not ideal, but what can you do???
