Prepare to be amazed… you will see staggeringly low numbers for me across all areas this week. My body had been giving me signals that I needed a rest day, but I was having so much fun I just didn’t listen…the result was it needed lots of rest days!

As always you have such a wonderful attitude towards fitness. You flexiblity with your workouts is enviable!
Love that expression on your face in the photo.
Great job!!!!
I miss my long runs too when I have been slacking. Rest is important too - I'm learning the importance of it but still have trouble slowing down
I crave long runs...they are my absolute favorite!
When I don't do long runs for a while, I miss them too! We're all a little bit nuts.
Good job listening to your body and taking some extra rest. I love a long run on a route I haven't run in a while. It's familiar, but you notice lots of new things and changes.
Long runs are my favorite part of training too. I love just taking off and letting my feet & mind wander.
I love my long runs too! I think they're my favorite run of the week!
:)
Looks all good to me. Rest is important, glad your're listening to your body.
It sounds like you know your body and know when to take it easy - nothing wrong with that! Good call.
Missing your long run sounds totally normal to me - in fact I feel nuts if I don't have mine.
