One word for this week: exhaustion. It was a very busy week that left me with little sleep and in turn caused me to have a sore throat and just feel tired most of the time. I ended up not doing much cross training and instead took an extra day of rest. Thank goodness this recovery week came at the right time.
Ballet went a bit better. I felt more comfortable with what to expect, but still have a lot of work to do.
Today I felt much better. We took a flight to Jefferson City, MO for lunch at the airport. The food was just okay, but the flight was great and it was a new place to see!
Here are some pictures on the way there:
When we got back we did our easy run around our neighborhood. I pushed my pace a little to kinda shake things out.
