Said No One Ever

This great quote really hits home today.

Nick has a nasty cold which I am of course picking up.  This morning I woke up with an annoyingly stuffy, yet runny nose, tired, and with a headache.

Sitting at my desk at work, feeling sorry for myself, I REALLY wanted to skip my run today.  

I started compromising with myself, saying, "Well, tomorrow I could double up on cardio and do my run tomorrow instead, and then do the Fitness @ Home work out at after work." 

Or, "I'll just do a fourth run over the weekend."  

Yeah right.

So many similar thoughts/excuses ran through my head, but instead, I bucked up and went to the gym over my lunch break.

Once I started my run intervals, my icky, sick feelings went out the window, and I felt great.

I felt strong and fast today.  Well, fast for me at least :)

Instead of feeling guilty, and regretting a skipped workout, I now feel wonderful.  Besides a slightly stuffy nose, my "sick" symptoms are gone.

I never take gym selfies, or really any selfies, but today I felt so great after my great sweaty run that I had to snap one quick!
