Week 2 of Boston Marathon training is officially in the books 🦄
Feeling strong and getting into a rhythm. I truly can’t believe I’m actually training for the Boston Marathon.

Total Miles: 36.7

• Monday - 4.4 Miles Easy. Outside.

• Tuesday - 30 Minute Tempo @ 8:00 pace 5.8 Miles Total. 30 Minute Peloton Strength in PM

• Wednesday - 4.4 Miles Easy. Outside.

• Thursday - 3 Miles Pace @ 8:06 pace 5.0 Miles Total. 30 Minute Body Pump in PM

• Friday - Rest Day! Did do a 10 Minute Peloton ab workout.

• Saturday - Swapped around my Saturday and Sunday because of the weather. It was 45 degrees and no wind, so decided to do my Long run for the week. 11.4 miles. First 5.5 miles were consistent and mostly flat. Have been practicing hills on the second half of my long run to prepare for hills later in Boston. 5.5 miles of hills then a little cool-down. The cemetary hill is a good one to practice on. Over 1/2 mile up then a good 1/2 mile down to practice the downhills of Boston also. Peloton 15 Minute Stretch workout.

• Sunday - Legs felt overall pretty good. Started slow and stayed slow to recover and be ready for Week #3 ahead. 5.7 Miles

Feeling really happy with how this week went—especially considering it was Christmas week.

Did I eat a little more sugar than usual? Yes.
But I also made mostly good choices and consistently chose protein to support my training and recovery.

Progress isn’t about perfection—it’s about balance, awareness, and getting back to your habits.

And I didn’t let Christmas get in the way. It would have been so easy to say, nope not doing it, but I stuck to my training and made time for it.
Trusting the process on the road and at the table.

Trusting the process and learning when to push—and just as importantly, when to respect recovery. One mile, one muscle, one memory at a time. 💙💛
