Today was a great reminder from last week how I’ve missed the humidity. Glad it didn’t stay gone for long. 🙄

Cedar Point has always been a favorite place to visit, & this year did not disappoint! Had a great coaster crew, got on Siren’s Curse 2x, & faced my fears & rode Top Thrill 2 not once, but twice! Can’t wait to get back!

Really digging the no humidity, forgot what it’s like not #running feeling like I’m engulfed in a wet blanket! 🤣

I’ve been taking the time to soak in my surroundings while #running lately. Crazy to find so many amazing things in #nature not far from my front door. Stopped to take in the creek at Wicker Park this last weekend’s long #run.

Running. But I’m a big believer in at least 30 minutes of movement every morning to set you up for a productive day.

Aubs wanted to get in more than 3 miles in training for the upcoming XC Season & I guess I wanted to go fast! 🤣 She pushed me & is now my official speedwork partner, even though I’ll be holding her back. Looking forward to more runs together & her upcoming season!

Tuesday Morning Miles

I wanted to do anything but get up & #run, but sticking to the plan & not my mood.

Just kept reminding myself how good I’ll feel after. & I was right, so glad I stuck w/ discipline.

Came home from my morning 4 miler to find Aubs just getting home from an early morning 3! Super proud dad moment seeing her dedication to getting in early miles in preparation for the XC Season. I know she would’ve ran with me if she didn’t go out with her friend, 🤣.

Finding time for yourself daily isn’t selfish, it’s a necessity for your mental well-being, actually making you better & more attentive to those in your life.

Morning miles, oh how I’ve missed you!

Life took over & I didn’t get in my miles this weekend, poor planning on my end. Today’s #run reminded me why I need to prioritize, feeling like myself again!
