A recap of my weekly workouts from the previous week.

Can you believe it is almost November!? Where has this month gone? I know in the beginning of the month I said I was going to be more committed to running. Well I think I did the complete opposite. I miss my CrossFit workouts and when I do them I feel like I am losing that stamina I had. As of right now I am still excited for my marathon, but I am just going to try to do as best as I can with training. The goal is under 4 hours right now.

With the holidays right around the corner, I am really going to start focusing on my nutrition. I have been letting myself eat a little too many sweets and drink one too many drinks and it has been catching up to me. My workouts don’t feel as good and I don’t feel as lean as I would like. Fueling my body for my workouts, especially with marathon training, is going to become more of a priority for me. I will talk about this a little more this week!
