Oh bunnyfungo I'm sorry about your DD diagnosis. I'm sure there are likely FB groups of moms in your position who might have some suggestions until you can get into a dermatologist. Big hugs.

Hi. I exist.
We've had some VERY rough nights in our house the last few nights and consequently I have overslept the couple of mornings. And yesterday MIL came after school because the girls were off school today, so she was here and DD2 had dance, so yesterday all I managed was two 10 minute yoga before bed; a core focus and runner focus flow.
Today I squeezed in a 30 minute 90s hip hop run with Robin after school, then dealt with kids, then did a 5 minute core, then did more dealing with kids, then stretched, then the dog got loose right as I was naked getting out of the shower. It's been a complete shit show the last few days.
I also got a period for the first time like, I don't know, well over a year? I've given into the junk food the last two days out of frustration. It was cake day at school today and I had it for breakfast and lunch and gave no fucks.
I just want to sleeeeeeep then ruuuuuun a bunch of miles. Ugh.

Went on a zone 2 run today. I figure my last threshold run was recent enough so I’m not doing that again now. My thinking brain is fried.
The last 36 hrs have been wild. Why is my life so dramatic this year?? I’m not into it. TL,DR MH got legit stranded on a trip, spent yesterday trying to get home and was right place/right time to take care of ANOTHER medical emergency because of it.
Anyway the run was chilly and crisp and sunny and good. Just over 2.5 miles.

New shoe day! Any name suggestions for them? They look like blue cotton candy, so my first thought was Cotton Candy Cruisers. With shoes my mind goes to food and alliteration, lol.

Morning.
30 minute Joan Jett run with Jess King 15 minute progression run with Becs 10 minute arms and shoulders with Callie 5 minute core with Andy 10 minute stretch with Wilpers
Yoga tonight.
I ended up at 4.9 miles of running. I could have squeezed out 5 miles, but damn the incline on the Jess King run. I did it to fidelity and it slowed me down, but I'm glad I did it.
Planning to get food on track today.

No formal workouts for me this weekend as I’m visiting my mom and doing errands here and there. I feel like my body needed a few days off after jumping back in the past five. So just some meditations yesterday and today.
I have to be onsite for work most of this coming week. Not looking forward to it in all honesty, especially not being able to get in my usual lunchtime workout. I have a feeling I’ll want to hit the couch as soon as I get home, especially as at least two of the days will involve a work dinner.

I went to my strength 50 class this morning and was all ready to go, and the teacher didn’t show up. 😑 Annoying. At least I had my transformation challenge check in scheduled and got that done.
My weight stayed exactly the same, but according to the scan I gained a little muscle and lost a little fat. And when I say little, I mean less than 1% for each lol. And again, I know the scans are not accurate. But I do honestly feel like my body comp changed a bit and my endurance increased, so I’m very happy.

I did a 5 minute Peloton warm up before needing to do kid stuff, but once they are settled I will try to do some Peloton strength stuff.
H is leaving to go to a conference today, so I am annoyed I had to miss OTF since I can’t go again till Thursday. Oh well. Gives me a reason to get back into Peloton.

Finalllly made it to the gym. Squat/bench testing today. PR’ed both (weight+reps for squat, reps for bench and then 1 rep at a higher weight) it was also my 150th strength workout!
It’s hard to mentally switch gears but I guess I’ll go for a swim tomorrow.

I did 15km (just under 10 miles) outside since it was so nice today. Not as warm as we were expecting, and windy AF, but the snow is melting so I’ll take it. Working on keeping long runs slow, with a controlled HR, so it took about 2h.
Then I think I waited too long to eat something after bc I felt like garbage once I got home. Just had dinner so we’ll see how this goes.

Was going to have another one after the next 45 min but then was like Welp I’m almost done so I’ll wait. Which might have been my downfall. I had water during, and Nuun after. I feel better post-dinner and snacks.

I feel better post-dinner and snacks. Yeah, i think generally speaking I need more fuel than I expect on long runs. Maybe do every 4 miles vs doing it based on time spent, that way you fuel twice, three times during a half, and know when to expect it in the run?

Saturday was an all day soccer tournament, but they won! Food was all silly, and all my exercise was nervous pacing of the sidelines. Sunday, we took a short walk and got caught up around the house. Today, I got up and did a 20 minute power yoga class live, and I plan to walk today, but it might be with my kids because they get out at 1:15 for all 4 days of school this week.
