Well Balanced Wednesday

Had a very productive Well-balanced Wednesday today! I ran 3 miles in under 26 minutes! Averaging 8'45" a mile - woop woop! Now that my marathon is over I'm loving these short runs. Afterwards I headed over to Erin's where we did a 20 minute legs workout (yay me, doubling up on my...
