Happy last Friday of August! This month went by SO fast – did it for you?
We’ll I’m just going to jump right into my August runfessions since I haven’t blogged in a while. My first runfession is that I didn’t plan on writing a blog post today, whoops. I’m on vacation and the last thing I wanted to do was sit on my computer and write. Which brings me to runfession #2.
I runfess that I signed up for another race this morning (hence being on my computer). I registered for the Berwick Gala Days 5 miler! It’s only a 10 minute drive from my house and a great local community event. I ran it last year and really enjoyed it.
Evening trail run
I runfess I desperately wanted to sign up for a triathlon late September called Keji Multisport. A good friend/co worker of mine is behind it all and I thought it would be a great event to dip my toes into doing a triathlon. Sadly, I just can’t pull it off between home stuff, other races, logistics of getting there and the BIG problem that I have a strong dislike for swimming in the deep lake water. Okay, maybe not a dislike but it brings me some anxiety that makes me panic. So, I didn’t sign up #sadface Maybe another year.
I runfess that I have three races on this fall…well summer/fall since summer doesn’t technically end until Sept 21st. A 5 miler (8k) this weekend, 10k on Sept 15th at Maritime Race Weekend and my half marathon on October 14th in Prince Edward Island.
I runfess that I’m most excited about running the half marathon with my husband. We’ll, we likely won’t run together very long as he is faster but we’ll start the race together AND have a weekend away on our own!
I runfess that I haven’t been biking much this month but got in a great bike commute to and from work last week. It was super hot on my way home but so beautiful and my workout was done for the day!
I runfess that I have no clue where this blog is going and I’m totally fine with it. When it first started I was excited to see the numbers of viewers etc, then had a REALLY awesome year with some high stats which was fun and now I just don’t have the time to put into it like I did. Having said that, I’m not quite ready to give it up but will likely just blog when I can.
Ahhhh, that feels good to get those runfessions out!
What are you runfessing this month?
Did summer zoom by for you?
What’s one thing you’re trying to do before the end of summer?
I’m linking up with Marcia for today’s Runfessions post. It’s hosted on the last Friday of each month!
Summer went way too fast as it always does. I love the idea of a bike commute. That would be awesome to multitask a workout and commute that way. How great to have a race so close. Takes so much stress out of the day. Enjoy the long weekend!
Yes, summer did seem to go especially fast this year! Maybe it’s because I worked so much (I took on more hours at my office job) or because we only had one child at home (but she was gone working most of the days). I don’t know…it seemed to just fly by. Summer is definitely my favorite season, but I don’t mind fall…I just dread what comes after it #winter
