training – back & biceps
Today is National
Running Day and I represented the great sport of running by doing a 5-miler in
the rain. It was my first run in over a
week, and it felt great. My legs were a
little tight, but overall the run was amazing.
It felt awesome to run in the rain too.
Following the trend of
other blogger’s today, here is why I run.
I run to be healthy.
I run because it makes
me happy.
I run because I like
to eat. A lot.
I run to be an
inspiration
I run because it makes
me feel like a mother fuckin’ rockstar!
In other news, I
finally stepped on the scale this morning for the first time in a couple
weeks. The number I saw wasn’t great,
but it was not as bad as I thought it would be.
Whew!
164.7 is the magical
number this week. If I don’t get into
the 150s soon, I’m going to lose my bananas!
Thanks for linking up!
ReplyDeleteRun girl run! One of these days, I'll get up to 5 miles!
Hey! I came across your page on my friend, Mean Ang's page. I look forward to reading about your marathon training journey. I ran my first half on May 5th but was pretty badly injured before and after (sciatica, herniated disc, bla bla) and haven't been able to run since. Well that's a lie because I ran a 5K last weekend. My body didn't like it but I wasn't in NEARLY as much pain as I was in after the half. After the half, I wanted to die and mind you I'm in shape so it was so frustrating to me. Anyway, glad I came across your page and I hope to run another half or even a full once day. Right now I'm cross training, doing yoga/pilates type stuff, and walking.
