Packing on the miles

I have been diligently keeping track of my mileage since I got the go ahead to start running again back at my six week check up. I have to say I have the second best month. In April I did 45 miles and this month I did 41.8...I would've have tied April, but it was thundering on Wednesday when I was going to hit the pavement. I have no excuse for the rest of the week other than life got in the way. So my goal for September will be to beat August. We only have one scheduled road race coming up so almost all of my running will be up to me. Just do it!

This morning I took Grayson and Scout on my run in the thick summer air. It really was not a good time, but I got it in the books and I can hang out working around the house for the rest of the day. I have baking I want to do and some knitting. There is a bounty of yummy goodness sitting on my kitchen counter. So far we have made two loaves of zucchini bread and John is making pickled beets as I write.

Next up banana chocolate chip muffins! Sounds like they need peanut butter! Mmmmmm
