My Week and 3/4 of Another Week in Running March 4th - 14th

The YMCA is closing the Independence location along with some other locations.  I'm kinda bummed about it since I spend a majority of my time there either working or working out.  I only started working there in January but really enjoyed my job, it is only 2.5 miles from my house, Gretchen really liked going to child care at the gym, and I liked the people I worked with but thats that.  Luckily I deal really well with disappointment and it is getting warm out so I guess there will be a lot of stroller jogging.

Monday:  10 miles on the treadmill
Tuesday:  Bootcamp then 7 miles on the treadmill
Wednesday:  Bootcamp then 5 miles on treadmill
Thursday:  7 miles on the treadmill
Friday: off
Saturday:  7 miles on the treadmill
Sunday:  13 miles outside.  This was a fail.  I was supposed to do a 20 mile run but the weather was a cool 37˚ with drizzle and I was not into it from the start.

Weekly total:  49 miles but a very weak long run.  Should probably try to get it together if I want to PR my marathon.

Monday:  Taught AOA water fitness then had to leave to give blood.  In favor of not passing out and falling off the treadmill from lack of blood I didn't attempt to run later in the day.  Did get to go to a super fun meeting where we were all told they were closing the Y.
Tuesday:  Felt super weak so after the first half of bootcamp I walked out and ran 3 easy miles on the treadmill.  I clearly need blood to run.
Wednesday:  Bootcamp then ran 1 mile on the treadmill.  Got called down to child care because Gretchen had a runny nose.  Ran 4 miles on the basement treadmill while Gretchen napped later that afternoon.
Thursday:  Had a babysitter because I was supposed to go to a class but that didn't happen so I was at the gym on the treadmill for one mile but I was mostly walking, texting and chatting with the guy on the treadmill next to me so we are just not going to count that mile.  I was probably confused because I was at the gym when I didn't need childcare and it was over 40˚ outside.  I left the gym and went to the trail to run 4 miles.  I don't want to run to much with a half marathon on Saturday but I've clearly dropped the ball on my running this week.

Weekly total so far: 12 miles
