Weekly Training Log: Week of February 22nd, 2016 - Week #10: Mommy's gone for the weekend

In Training: I am finding myself able to pound out more quality/higher intensity.  It was a good week in all, and I am ready to keep going.  I have a CTL of around 125 - 127 right now.  I think it will hover around that number until the end of our school year at work.


In Life:  Beth took off to go to Ocean City NJ for a funeral on Thursday.  That meant that I had Aiden alone Friday through Monday.  It was awesome.  I love alone time with my boy.
It was also the first time Beth was away (without me having grandparents close to help) when I needed to get in some training.  It worked out AWESOME.  He let me get in a two hour ride, then an hour run by myself.  He got to watch a movie.
Later Saturday we headed up to my sisters house to go to my Niece, Autumn's birthday party.  I stayed up there, had a few drinks, and enjoyed the night in Ft. Collins.
