Starting 2017 off with a Bang

What a start to 2017!!!

The first race of the year is under my belt… and while it didn’t go quite as well as I wanted, I really shouldn’t complain. My goal for the AZ Rock n Roll Half Marathon was to break 2:30. Well, I definitely did not race my plan… I ended up trying to run at Lil WO’s pace at the beginning of the race. That meant going out too fast, and I just didn’t have enough to get the negative splits I needed. I did PR though, which is good. 2:35 is nothing to sneeze at – so close to my goal! To be honest, I don’t really like that course. After running it twice I think I can say that without only using the experience of running it when I was hurt (and really shouldn’t have been running at all.)

Ambassador!

2017 Nuun AmbassadorThen I found out that I was selected to be a part of #TeamNuun as a Nuun Ambassador! It is totally exciting to get to represent them, I love their products! Most drinks really have a tendency of upsetting my stomach, but not Nuun! Plus, super easy to carry, and simply drop into a water bottle or glass of water when you need a boost of electrolytes.

Bad News as well…

Of course, it hasn’t been all good things, I am writing this in bed recovering from the flu. It’s never any fun to be throwing up all day. Or having your body hurt everywhere anytime you move. The good news is I am feeling better – and able to sit up. Sometimes it’s the little things you have to appreciate.
