Circles and Squares

Goals for this week-----I have been slacking off in the running department... no good.

1. I will try to run at least 12 miles this week--- it seems the holidays have gotten me used to being quite lazy:)!

2. I will eat things that make me feel like running and load up on lots of healthy black coffee to help me stay motivated.

3. I will encourage Jeff to come with me because he has expressed an interest in running lately.

4. I will take each dog at for at least one small run each this week.

5. I will run with ANYA on January 17th and start my week out on the right foot:)!

6. Reload Ipod shuffle with some new and fabulous running tunes!!!!!!!!!!!

YAYYYYY for running. Today I did not have a good run my body hates itself and has decided to torture me. My back, butt, thighs and shins hurt. It's wierd I really wonder why. I'm so glad that I ran with Anya because otherwise I think I may have bailed!!!!:) Tomorrow is a new day!:)

Truthfully I have no idea how far we ran:) ----Today was such a great run-- my body felt so good and I am FULL of energy!!! It didn't hurt that I was super excited to run with Anya and Nicole. Weather was fabulous--- ZERO rain and the tempature was right. We went up a big (by big I mean ginormous):) hill in the begining and then took it easy on the flatter parts around my neighborhood. This is one of those runs that you chase--- the feeling of just being free and your body cooperating almost 100% --- I always want to feel this way. I seriously feel like sunshine right now. I'm sure the coffee laced with esspresso didn't have anythng to do with this delightful run either, probably will affect my quality of sleep tonight though:)! What a great start to my most magnificent weekend.
