Ugh, today's run was HORRIBLE. Just horrible. Was so excited, worked from home this morning so I could run during the day, beautiful day outside, planned to do 5 fun miles. Got out there with Cooper, and ugh. First mile struggled with terrible sideaches, but kept pushing through. Then started to get some shin splint pain in my left leg (and anything that's just in my left leg worries me), then finally around mile 2 started to get really nauseous, so much so that I finally had to stop at 2.4. Felt a little better when walking so I walked until I hit 4, but what a dissapointment. Its been 8 days in a row of running, so maybe my body's just like HEY, you promised me a break on Tuesday! But this week I planned to take Christmas off instead. Maybe I'll take tomorrow and Christmas off, but I'll have to work out somehow to ward off all that extra indulgence! :-) Merry Christmas Eve Eve everyone!
