Had a crazy weekend... and didn't get a run in. I think I'm having some sort of mental block when it's coming to my weekend run. Or on the other hand I might just be mental :)

Had a pretty good run tonight, a bit of tummy trouble at the end. I felt a bit slow and I think my time shows that also.

Tonight felt a bit better then last night, I don't think my time is any better though. I took some meds. before I ran... that might have helped with my knee. All in all not too bad. :)

Well tonight I deliberately slowed down, I have been having motivational trouble by the end of the week so I was thinking if I slowed it down, and took it a bit easier I might have more gumption for the weekend. But I have to say that it was not fun, I wanted to run faster and at times had a hard time holding back, I also didn't take any anti-inflammatory  meds. tonight and my knee was a bit achy, not bad... just annoying.

Well my daughter had a concert tonight so I knew that I had to hurry to get my run in, and of course my tummy decided that I could not hurry :(` I swear every mile I had to stop to potty, it was not a pretty run. But at least I got some miles in! Her concert was fun and Christmasy, so I enjoyed it!

Well tonight was pretty much a repeat of last night. Potty issues and all. I will be running with a new group of runners tomorrow so please keep your fingers crossed that my tummy issues won't bug me in the morning. I don't think I was to leave a bad impression with them :)

Today I was able to hook up a run with some new people. I found out much to my dismay that they were very fast. The one guy that invited me was nice enough to run with my, but I was still pushing myself to at least look like I could handle it. By the time I don't think it was that much faster then I normally run, but for some reason I had a hard time. It was a slight down hill, then we turned around to have the slight up hill on the way back AGHHH!!! I felt like a cow :(

5.6 miles - 50 min.
