I mean really?!? There is absolutely no way it can be September already right?
September means….
Back to school
The start of pumpkin spice everything!! (how did this become a thing?)
And my fall half marathon/full marathon training starts again
I’m getting ready to run the USA San Diego Invitational Half Marathon (they really need to shorten that name) coming up in November. And, as seen above, I’m following Hal Higdon’s Intermediate Half Marathon training plan, free training plans FTW!
I started up yesterday with a treadmill sesh at early o’clock in the morning for 3 easy miles (target pace 9:00 min/mile). Luckily I had some frog friends to keep me company

They are super teeny frogs in the top left window pane and the one right below that, I have named them Fiona and Fred
I finished up in 27:43 for a 9:14 min/mile pace which wasn’t too bad considering how little I’ve run and how sleepy I was!
Anyways, Steve is getting better every day and Luna is getting bigger every day! I swear she could fit in my hand last week…
Although Steve is making a lot of progress we still have some rough days (this was from a few weeks ago when we made yet another trip to urgent care, it’s a really awesome place for a date)
Look familiar??
Hopefully he’ll feel well enough to help me drive to Alabama for Labor Day fun this weekend.
I gotta go work on homework while drinking a pumpkin spice latte now…Cheers!
