Well the last two weeks I've been able to do my running outdoors! It's been great to be outside again but it's been a hot two weeks to run that's for sure! Not that I'm complaining (ok myabe just a little bit).
Well today is my last day of work before my two week vacation! This weekend is Kempenfest in Barrie, so I'll head up there with my girlfriend tomorrow after my long run. The long run will be 16-18 miles long. I'm not sure yet because while 18 miles was planned, 16 miles were scheduled for last weekend to which only 12 were completed. It was the long run from hell. I was at my girlfriend's cottage and it was hot and very hilly. I did a lot of walking and even stopped for coffe half way.
So really not sure what I'll be able to pull out. The longest I have ran is 14 miles since the marathon at the end of May....
Monday Amelia and I will head to the Scenic Caves in Collingwood with my sister for the day. Then on Tuesday, we'll head up to my mom's cottage for the rest of the week. I'll be able to get outside for my runs there as well which will be nice.
On Saturday August 6, Amelia will compete in her first Triathlon. I had to buy a bike rack for the car (a Beetle) and bought her some bike shorts from the sports store to pull on after her swim! So she's all set. Oh and she got a new bike too because the one she had was too small...So my baby all geared up for her first tri!
I'm going to try and run the new Barrie Half Marathon on the 14th as well (last day of vacation).
So that wraps it up!
