I got dumped last weekend. Sharing that may be venturing into TMI territory for a blog, but when Dru & I started this I wanted it to be a documentation of what the year was really like leading up to our half-marathon. The relationship was important to me and since Dru already hears about it from me via many, many emails, I figured I’d share it here, too. Besides, it does have something to do with my half training. Because I figure what’s a girl to do after getting dumped?
1. Make the world’s most epic breakup playlist (see below).
2. Get serious about swimsuit season, which means more running & training for the half!
Swimsuit season comes early in Dallas
This past weekend I decided to shake up my workout routine (with visions of swimsuits dancing in my head) with some ideas Dru had shared with me. First, I started off with a 5K-distance run on the treadmill because it rained for approximately 33 hours on Saturday. I kicked up my mile average a bit and it felt awesome. Then, I got down to the business of lunges & squats. And more lunges and squats. And finally, you guessed it, more lunges & squats. Let’s just say that two days post-workout (and 9 days post-breakup) my heart is feeling better but my booty is still aching!
