*RECAP* Max Performance Title 9 Women Only Tri

It was the morning of my seventh triathlon and I was a ball of nerves and excitement! I was actually looking forward to tackling the Max Performance Title 9 Women Only Sprint Triathlon.

Not only would I be racing, but I would be there to support three of my Weight Watchers members, as well as, a fellow WW leader and friend. They would all be doing their first triathlon. YES!! I love being there to witness friends push their comfort zones and prove to themselves how strong they are. :)

*Marathon Training Update* Rockin' Savannah In 59 Days...

When we last left the marathon #9 training story, I had the hydration plan under control thanks to Essentia Water... but the rest was a mystery! :P

Well that was a start, but there was the small detail of a training plan that needed to be addressed. I haven't followed a really structured training plan in a couple of years. Outside of my long runs that were set by Tedy's Team for the past couple of Boston Marathons. Now I am not recommending this plan to folks - haha - it's just what ended up transpiring in my life. I was kind of winging the weekday workouts, which didn't really bring me the results I wanted. Shocking I know. ;)

So this time around, I wanted a little more structure. I had dabbled in the idea of getting a running coach, but that wasn't in the financial cards.

*RECAP* Gone For A Run Sole Sister *Virtual* 7-Miler

Wouldn't you like to end every training run with bling? Okay well that might just be me, but seriously I wish I could. I have been known to come home from a run and put on bling from a past race just to make myself feel that extra sense of accomplishment. ;)

Enter virtual races. I love using a virtual race to jazz up an otherwise hum drum training run.

So I used yesterday's 7-miler (which I wasn't really looking forward to) to complete the Gone For A Run Sole Sister 7-miler.

So I launched #MedalMonday yesterday - a weekly Periscope where I share the story behind one of my 100+ medals.
