Life is to be enjoyed, not just endured

Met Paula for our run this morning.  We decided that with the snow and ice we would stay on the side streets to avoid the cars.  Not a bad run but my legs are still so tired.  I am not sure why or what is going on, but I am sure some of it is stress related.  I twisted my ankle with about a mile left but it was fine afterwards.

Happy Running!

Chose sleep instead of running.  I slept for about 1.5 hrs before midnight and then did not fall back asleep until around 3:30 am.  I told my self if I was still up at 4:30 when my alarm went off I would go running.  Fell asleep to soon.  Not sure if I will be able to get a run in later today but will try my best.

Happy Running!

Paula and I went to the Oval this morning to avoid the wind.   We did a progressive run and I really have no idea of pace or mileage because I did not count laps.  It was at least 5 but from there I am not sure.  She is always fun to run with and did a great job listening to me complain, but now.......no more complaining.  I am done!

Happy Running!

Met up with my BBK friends for a cold run on the JRP.  We had a good group today and warmed up for about 4.5 miles and then did 3.5 miles at tempo pace and then cooled down for a mile.  Our tempo pace was progressive starting out at about 7:45 - 8:00 and ending at 7:00 - 7:15.  This was the first good run I have had in a while which makes me very happy.  I think part of it was because instead of focusing on a pace or number to aim for, I ran by feel.  If you had told me that we would be in the low 7's, my mental blockade against fast would have taken over.  Better to go by feel.

Run was harder than it should have been.  Electrolyte issue afterwards. Violently ill.
