@missingwdw wowza! Look at you go! Proof that hard work most certainly pays off!!
Well gang, I’m still getting back into the swing of things. I’ve run 4 times since last Thursday but have continued to go on my walks while on break at work. I still get tired a little quickly but each time is getting easier.
I got up early this morning and ran before work though! So that’s something
OMG @bexruns I WANT YOUR MUG!
Oh, yeah. Great job getting back into the swing of things. But more importantly, I WANT THAT MUG!!!!
Being FORCED to take time off sucked so bad. Trying to build back up sucked even more. But, you’re way awesomer than me, so you’ll be back better than ever before you know it! And just think, you’ve got less to carry around now when you run so it will probably make you faster!
Kidding…….HA! It’s true though. And honestly, its a lot more comfortable. I mean, running is still hard and my legs are still tired but the rest of me feels SO MUCH better. I just need to get through the sucky part of getting back into it before it becomes a massive habit again.
Dude, I’ll have to post a picture of all the Disney mugs my mom has. I could probably go a month w/ a different mug and never post the same one
So the GPS was having some fun with me this morning on my runkeeper app. I knew when my stats went off at the two mile mark and I hadn’t even gone 1.5 miles yet that something was up. Also, the fact that it said I was running a 7 minute mile was hilarious. Yeah, sure. So I stopped that run and tracked another one. It was still off, so I just ignored it. I run these streets so much I know how far I’ve gone without it. I ended up doing 4 miles. Humidity kept me from hitting 5. And I prob paced right around my usual. Who knows. Who really cares. I ran. That’s all the matters
3.1 miles done. My body was hating me this morning with a bad psoriasis flare up causing GI issues. I almost bailed on my run. But I was determined to get a few miles in. Ryan was out running at the same time and he says I looked like I was going to throw up! ???? So that means I looked awesome! ???? I kept my pace where I wanted it for today. Not too shabby for not running for a few weeks and the tummy issues!
My earbuds have been glitchy lately, and although I just charged them yesterday, they decided not to work for me this morning. So, I headed out in the torrential rain with just the weather and my thought to entertain me. Got 5 in and the rain was fantastic. Almost as good as running in the cold, but not quite
My clothes were so saturated it was as if I jumped in a pool and then decided to go for a run. My shirt was so heavy. Lesson learned, if running in heavy rain, wear a compression tank top. Holy cow, the weight of my shirt was killing me! Thank god I still have miles left on my old sneakers because I didn’t mind running through the ankle deep puddles in those babies. It was almost like being at MK on a rainy summer day trudging through the floods!
