Running Week in Review: 4.21.14

I had a great week of running and working out this past week. I ran 27 miles which is on the high end of what I usually run. I was very thankful for that and feel great! I think the hardest part for me is finding the time to have good quality runs. I'm really working on that and I feel better for it. I'm also learning more about not rushing through every run. I don't do a great job of taking recovery days or doing good recovery runs, but I'm making a concerted effort to do better and not run at a below 7 minute pace or right at it for my runs.

I was also excited that I got back into the gym. I made it twice which was great. I feel stronger for it and plan to keep it up.
