Another week, another PMB. Another month, another montly recap. Let’s combine them and save time for the both of (plus who needs five posts). What sort of physical, mental and brags do I have for the month of February?
Physical: I ran my first half marathon in 7 months. I didn’t die. I was a real girl for a good portion of the month. I can always physically brag about that. Also I got a hair cut so I don’t look like a sleazer grimeball.
Mentally: It’s no secret that February was just a hard month for me. It’s cold, I’m normally miserable during said month and it seems like the longest month yet it’s the shortest. Someone tell me how that works because I certainly don’t know. Oh where is the brag here, mentally I made it through February continued running, minimized bitching and lived the dream in my Russian hat. I think that summarizes how awesome it was.
Brag: I’ve been taking a day off weekly from running for essentially the last month. I have felt awesome doing that. Some days I cross train, some days I take a full day of rest. It just feels great and I’m still running 70+ miles a week. Gone are the days I need to run 90 mile weeks right now (preparing for cross country season). Maybe I’ll get to running those weeks again but I feel no pressure with my running to do that. Though let’s be honest, I don’t feel any pressure ever with my running.
Here is a photo of me running during one of those 90m weeks…good times…because it was summer.
I am sad to say that PMB’s for me has run it’s course for a while. I may or may not bring it back on my blog eventually but for now it will be going with the wind.
Question’s for you: What are your PMB’s of the month?
