July Workouts- the rest of them!

Here are my July workouts! I have been going like crazy, so here goes:

July 12th: So, I decided that I would run the ole neighborhood, which I used to do so often and haven't done for some time. I knew it was hilly, but WOW I really did forget how challenging this run was. I wanted to run 3 miles, but settled for 2.08. I did ok, averaging 10:34 per mile. You can view my route here

July 14th: I ran on campus for 2 miles. It is so HOT out there! But, there is no way I will repeat the Chicago Triathlon with a breakdown during the run! I went 2 miles in 20:41, averaging 10:19 a mile. You can view my route here. I also walked a cool down 0.12 miles in 1:59. 

July 16th: I ran a total of 2 miles with a lap builders inside. Here is the breakdown:
Ran 1/2 a mile in 4:10
10 reps each: push-ups, switch lunges, wall plank/knee-in, burpees, and squat jumps in 2:05
Ran 1/2 mile in 4:27
10 reps each: push-ups, switch lunges, wall plank/knee-in, burpees, and squat jumps in 2:34
Ran 1/2 mile in 4:30
10 reps each: push-ups, switch lunges, wall plank/knee-in, burpees, and squat jumps in 2:44
Ran 1/2 mile in 4:30
10 reps each: push-ups, switch lunges, wall plank/knee-in, burpees, and squat jumps in 2:01
This was INSANE! My total time was 17:32 and I went 2 miles and did 200 reps. It was a great workout!

July 21st: Hello VACATION! I had a great beach run while in Daytona Beach, FL. I ran 3.01 miles in 30:14. You can view my route here. It was awesome weather and a great run!

July 23rd: Another great beach run! I ran 3.01 miles in 31:57. I had an "oh no" moment...I really had to go to the bathroom! And it never makes me run faster, I always have to walk! But, that's ok, I still finished! You can view my route here
