The pool has opened so we've been spending lots of time up there trying to stay cool. 
Saturday - a rest day. 
Yesterday, got up at 6am  and went to Lake Compounce to watch the kids run a 5K. So proud of Sutton and Hagen...times were 25:11 and 24:55 respectively.  They cranked - they are so inspiring!  After the race the fun part was going to the park for a few hours with friends...we stayed until about 3ish so home by 3:45.
It was hot, it had just poured outside and steam was coming off the roads, but after seeing the kids run, I knew I had to get my long run in.  It was pretty good all throughout...ran a lot of hills and every time I felt like stopping, I remembered what Hagen said to me about how he got through the hills on the course:  fitter, faster, stronger...so that's what I told myself and I plugged away up each hill.  Total distance covered was 8.9 miles in 1:21.  My legs were pretty wasted at the end.
Today, swim first.  3000 yards.  Main set:  3x200's, 6x100's - nothing exciting to report - legs tired and arms flailing.  Looking forward to an open water swim some time soon.
WOD was 500M row/400 M run - 5 times through - time was 21:37. 
finished with the back extensions and 100 sit ups for time:  3:51.
Kids are home for summer now!  No more school!

Fitter Faster Stronger I love it! A bunch of our tshirts from the gym have faster written down the one sleeve and stronger written down the other. I always think of your child telling you that now!
