Wednesday workout

It's Wednesday ~ Hump Day ~ The middle of the work week ~ And a Running Day! I was up, dressed, and doing my warm up routine by 5:45am. There isn't a glimmer of the morning sun at that time so I took extra precautions...
Safety First!

My mid week goals are changing slightly as I try to improve my endurance. I decided to do a 5K or run for 35 mins (whichever came SECOND)...

Summary of the running session....
Mile pace breakdown...
(I just love seeing that little "hare" icon)

I'm not doing all that well with my plank challenge...
I was able to complete the time goal for today but I had to incorporate two different plank positions in order to do so. I guess ultimately I'm still targeting my core, but I was hoping to eventually be able to do the full 5 minutes in one position. The problem I'm having is that I'm getting back pain (oh the joys of scoliosis) so I know that my body positioning must be off a bit. Anyway I'm going to continue to try and complete the challenge for this month (even if I have to break up the time between multiple plank positions). November will be here before I know it and I will start a new challenge! (Any suggestions for what my November challenge should be?)

My parents leave tomorrow (booooo!) which makes me kind of sad. I have 11 more LRs before Christmas (when I will (hopefully) see them again). I've decided I'm going to count down the rest of the 2014 milestone events by determining how many LRs I have left ;)

I'm still waiting to register for Wings for Life and the Palm Beach Half Marathon. The Palm Beach 1/2 is in 2 months (8 LRs) so I'm kind of concerned about registration closing if the event gets full :(

Has anyone done the Palm Beach Half? Is it normally really crowded?
