Just Got Out There

Oh my fricken lord.....everything about today was hard, but I did it. I got up at 5:50am. ARGH...

On the downside:
  • Barely rolled out of bed
  • NO gumption whatsoever!
  • Didn't want to do it
  • Dead legs
  • Crampy and sore tummy.... like Sister No Hair....Everywhere put it, the kind you DON'T want to have
  • Didn't run as much as last time
On the plus side:
  • Did manage to get up despite eyes barely open
  • sunshine!!
  • crisp temp which I find easier to run in
  • awesome views and plenty of gorgeous trees to admire
  • Helpful mantras: JUST GET OUT THERE........Just get through it!
Whoa...today was a tough one. Just so very tired and devoid of energy, but although I didn't do much sustained running, did run at least half. Felt awful, seemed to take forever, but shaved off several minutes over the total time. Go figure.
Next time should be better....can't see it being any worse!

Still, am happy that I just got out there! :-)

    I like this post .... bad news first, good news second! I love reading this blog. It is making me more and more excited for the run in less than a month!! We will have a major toast on the dance floor for all the hard work at the wedding!! Can we make sure to get a good group shot after the run?
