Skies are greenish blue to the NW but that cloud won't pass directly overhead.

Humidity was still down this morning compared to what it normally is, and so I managed to fit in another quicker-paced run without completely dying. Tomorrow should be a relatively quick one as well as I do a much shorter six-mile loop to round off the week with the local running group.

Running challenge
1 July: 5.30 at 5:09 pace (race pace)
2 July: yoga
3 July: 7.01 at 5:45 pace
4 July: yoga
5 July: 12.66 at 5:50 pace (“unproductive" according to Garmin)
6 July: rest
7 July: yoga
8 July: 15.2 at 6:01 (slow and steady)
9 July: yoga
10 July: 6.0 at 6:02 pace (probably faster but I had a child on a bike in tow who kept needing a push - I certainly had to work harder) plus another 1.8km at about the same pace with similar issues getting the younger daughter to kindy.
11 July: yoga
12 July: 10.71 at 5:25 pace - when you’re short on time but you want to go long, you gotta go fast.
13 July: rest and pizza (and more pizza)
14 July: sneaky 6.7km to undo some of last night’s pizza damage followed by yoga. Great way to start a Saturday.
15 July: 16.51 at 5:55 pace. Building up to the Mt Maunganui Half on August 25.
16 July: yoga
17 July: 5.79 at 6:02, plus 3.9 at a similar pace dropping children off at kindy and so on.
18 July: 7.19 at 5:39 and yoga as well
19 July: 10.38 at 5:50 pace.
20 July: 7.39 at 5:39 pace. Would have run longer as I felt great and the weather was perfect, however, work called…
21 July: 6.84 at 5:50 pace. When I woke I could tell from the birdsong that it was a fabulous morning so I leapt up and headed out. Cool, clear, calm. Another perfect running day. So glad I did as by mid morning the clouds had rolled in and it’s reverted to being a grey winter’s day. Also yoga.

Hey, we're past half way through the year.
How's everybody going with their goals?
A reminder of what @Elise4270 asked us in December :end-of-month question?
What are your goals for this next year?
Where do you want to be a year from now?
How do you see your training evolving?
My goals this next year... i think I'm going to quit eating food that's not food. I'm going to stick to things that are real food, look like real food and I can identify what's actually in it.
Training wise, this is my year to kick *kitten*. I'm going to take advantage of getting stronger and more confident and more dedicated to training and self-improvement. I want to swim, bike and run more.
Lofty goals, eh? Let's do this.
ETA I also need to use lotion on a regular basis (and format original post). And add I'm also going to to do 30 minutes a day, everyday of deliberate exercise. Except surgery day, I have to be there at 5am. And I'm starting now. Now's the change.
What are your goals for this next year?- Run a 50 km run. Anything else will be cherries on top.
Where do you want to be a year from now?- Feeling as blissfully happy as I am now.
How do you see your training evolving?- Hopefully getting better at combining sufficient rest with 20% adequate intense runs while maintaining long slow distance.
Tick, tick, and tick.
Hopefully the happiness doesn't wear off the further past my 50 km I get.4 -
20 miles?!?!?!
18 miles?!??!
You guys are either crazy or I am, one of the two, because I find that weirdly motivational and some kind of long-term goal.
I am not a speed demon. I am slow as a herd of elephants in molasses, but I enjoy longer runs.7 -

Looks like barring any unforeseen difficulties I will hit my goal tomorrow... I really underestimated given I still have a week of training and my HM to run!
Had an amazing run today despite getting out late (overslept because I turned off the alarm) and running in the heat and humidity. I did find a Buff visor that I forgot I had. It it awesome for sweaty runs!
