Hawaii Week 3 and Back Home to Winter

We are currently back home in California.  Three weeks in Hawaii just flew by.  What a shock to return to winter temps! After lows in the 60s, getting up to 31 degrees this morning was quite a wake up!

At home this morning:



At home away from home:


I was so relieved to step on the scale this morning and see that I had maintained my weight.  Three weeks of eating out nonstop had me a little concerned, but I guess all the walking balance it.  Maybe I'll even lose some next time!

Here is how this week went:

Sunday - Rested

Monday - Walked 5 miles

Tuesday - Ran 6.26 miles in 1:06:19, 10:36 pace
Also walked 5 miles

Wednesday - Walked 5 miles

Thursday - Ran 1.3 miles on the beach in 20:00, 15:23 pace
I think we did as much walking as we did running!  I was pouring sweat in the first five minutes.  I'll be doing more of this when we go back.
Also walked 4 miles

Friday - Rest Day
We took the red eye flight home Thursday night and I did not sleep a wink!  I don't know why, but I just stayed awake the entire time.  Needless to say, I slept a lot on Friday.  We were in bed by 9:30 (7:30 Hawaii time) and I was up at 6:00 on Saturday morning.

Saturday - Ran 7.02 miles in 1:18:21, 11:10 pace
Hello, hills!  Hello, cold weather!  "They" say it's good to change up your workout from time to time.  This was a definite change from the past three weeks.  Where's my Kona coffee?
