My training up to the Asbury Park Half marathon was so so. I would have liked to have ran on Monday but I just didn't get to it with my preschooler at home that day. What I should have done was either PiYo or T25 but I was lazy. Other than that missed day, I'm happy with what I got in for training.
Here's a recap of last week's workouts up to the Asbury Park Half:
Tuesday 4/14 - 4.3 miles with friends
Wednesday 4/15 - 2 miles
Thursday 4/16 - Rest
Friday 4/17 - Rest
Saturday 4/18 - Asbury Park Half Marathon. This was my time and distance according to my Garmin. Race recap with official results will be on the blog later this week.
Sunday 4/19 - Rest
As to the weekend, Saturday was the Asbury Park Half. For now I will just say that it was a beautiful day for a run but also the warmest day I've ran this year and I wasn't prepared for the warm weather. My time was fine, but I was hoping for under 2 hours. It's ok though because I got to go with some awesome friends and we all had a great time (Thanks Dana, Min, and Kelly for a good time). Race recap will be on the blog this week.
After the half marathon, we ate brunch at the Turning Point in Freehold. I forgot to snap a pic but I had a berry smoothie and a Western Omelette and it was just right for after running the Half. When we got back to our friend Dana's house we celebrated our finishing the half marathon with sparkling apple cider.
The rest of the afternoon was spent just relaxing and recovering from the half marathon.
On Sunday, it being another nice day, but not as warm, we headed out for a family hike at 6 Mile Run Reservoir. It's a neat place to hike. Trip report on this will come later on the blog too! :)
We went for 2 miles and it took about an hour total, then headed back home for lunch. After lunch the kiddos wanted to play outside so we did that too. They rode their bikes and also played catch with Daddy. :)
Overall a great weekend! I did miss the kiddos first t-ball practice/game but Hubby took some great pics and I wanted to leave off with this cute one he took of the boys together.
