I got on the treadmill today thinking I need to run three miles without stopping. After my first mile I thought I should push myself a little harder so I decided I was going to run it in 30 minutes. Almost! 30.34 still a pr for me. Then I kept on running and thought to myself over and over "that which dose not kill me will only make me stronger" I think I should make that my new blog title. So I did it. I ran 4 miles with no walking and I did it in 41:00 another pr for me. I am a little sore but It feels good that I can talk myself through something that is not really that much fun and a little painful. I keep waiting for the day that I just love running.
I love sports wake boarding, biking, swimming, fishing, hiking. I just wish running was as entertaining to me. Although I think the running will at least make me feel more comforatable doing the things I really love. We have a jet boat and when other people come out with us, I always feel like everything is just bouncing around and flapping in the wind. (very self consious in a bathing suit) I usually wear a shirt and shorts but that gets in the way when trying to wake board or knee board. I got my pocket of my shorts caught on the side of the boat once(On the metal things on the front of the boat) while getting in the water and got fliped around hit my head on the side of the boat and basically got my shorts ripped off.
So I am hopeing that when boating season comes around I will feel more confident and maybe I will perform better without all my loose fitting long shorts on. I will also be running outside by then so maybe just maybe I will love that to :)
O Ya I am talking about my workout! After my treadmill i worked my abs over, and then changed a diaper in record time. Then I rode the bike for 25 minutes because that was all the time I had left. |
